Here is a little nice idea for you -

I just uploaded here >> http://www.thirdway.it/file/uc_sins.zip" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. some profile pics of the SINS courts.

There are all the SINS in male and female version. You can pick your favourite SIN (or your favourite character) and use it as your UC profile pic.
This means that everyone will know your sin, of course

Hope it's a fun idea meanwhile we're waiting the 17th of February.

I notice that both male and female representations of lust have leather wings and at least the male one has horns. Does this make them demons, specifically an incubus and a succubus respectively? Even more, is the female version Lilith, Adam's first wife who later became a succubus? She carries a shield(?) with a representation of the forbidden fruit which connects her thus to Eden and Adam. See, this is why I like your decks so much! All these hidden meanings and symbolism to decipher! Also is female wrath a vampire? In any case, great work!

@Olethros - Lust Jack and Lust Queen are inspired by an incubus and a succubus, yes
All SINS characters have "evil" details, like horns, wings and spikes, but (at least in my interpretation) they're not *real* demons or vampires. They just represents the SINS inside us, so they have a fierce look.

The Apple of Knowledge is the main graphic element of the deck - it's the origin of the first SIN, so a lot of courts are marked with it.

I love share some of my thoughts about the decks I made, but in the end I think the best part is the interpretation. For example, I didn't thought about the female Lust as Lilith, but now I think about that, she fit her perfectly.

I think a lot will be revealed with the next Kardify article on SINS Mentis

What if.... USPCC?

Considering the misalignment risk from USPCC and your details that go close to the edges, i'm not sure if this would be the best idea.

@Azid - I'm aware of that... I think I can reduce the designs a little and ask USPCC to be very careful - it's a solveable problem, I think

Though I agree with Azid about the registration issues, if you could make adjustments to control the margin of error, I would be quite interested in a deck made by USPC ...would you consider having a Bicycle branded deck?

Either way, I will definitely be backing this project

.... with Bee Stock ?

@Sherman - Bycicle brand is not an option for SINS, but in future... why not?

@Bruno - I haven't discussed details with USPCC - but I considered to ask them about Bee Stock. Let's see

Anyway, my two options for SINS are EPCC and USPCC - other companies are not an option. I think both are great, I want the best quality possible for my decks - I have just to decide wich one hehe

Kardify just published a new article about SINS, that talks about the second "unlimited" deck, SINS Mentis.

And finally a Queen of Hearts (Lust, of course) is revealed!

I must say, this is growing on me, especially the theme. I'm another person getting a little tired of the standard thirdway look, as after a while they all start to look the same, but this theme and quality may be enough to get me in for at least a deck. Great work!

I do hope you consider branching out a little bit in the future with some new styles.

Damn Gio you nailed Lust on the Queen!!!

@ecNate - thank you for the feedback

@Rick - she's one of my favourite queens I've ever did
A little spolier - there is a different Lust Queen of Hearts in every SINS deck.

SINS launch - UTC 14,30 - 15,30 in Milan and 9,30 in New York / Friday 17th of February 2017 - Save the date!

The time is good!!


I think that it is also time for you to sin a bit and go with USPCC!

SINS Anima, the Limited Edition of the project, has just been revealed by our friends @ Kardify

Curious, what's wrong with the thread name?

I said "oh lord' when I seen the red deck. I have a feeling it might not be sold alone. The red makes the deck look more sinister-ish.

The name of these decks are called Sins, giving the thread title an actual name plus if people want to search for thread by name title in the future.

The correct name should be "SINS - A new deck from Thirdway Industries, live from 02-17-2017 "



Thank you guys!
