gregory Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Kickstarter is not remotely necessary - it is so easy just to put things up on PS and open a "shop" there to sell them. No money involved for you, but if you make sales, every time your profit hits $100, they will give it to you at the end of the month. You don't have to do anything once it's uploaded - they print and dropship on your behalf. (I made about $150, and I never ever wanted to sell it in the first place but two of my friends were harassing me, and I had to shut them up.)

I just wish their website wasn't so slow and that it was a bit easier to navigate - especially among the shops. But if you market yourself with a link to your shop then that takes care of that issue. If I ever make a deck available for sale then it will definitely be on their page.

I agree that the Concept is brilliant, i already loved that concept when i wrote my books and had them being printed by epubli POD Service. Now i'm very happy that i've used the Printerstudio Template by intuition 😀 As reworking from a different template could be pretty troublesome, but with everything on their template, this seems a nice option if anybody wants a set of these cards. Update: Added first Major Arcana Cards to the list of preview Pictures Edited January 28, 2020 by lucksmith
lucksmith Posted May 18, 2020 Author Posted May 18, 2020 Update: Finally got into adding the next Major Arcana Cards (4-7) It was quite a stretch with the Minor Cards. Therefore i needed some break but now i found new energy to get back into it 😀

lucksmith Posted June 10, 2020 Author Posted June 10, 2020 Yes, it was a bit tough to get going and pick it up again. Strange enough, since i finally got back into it, i'm literally drawn into it to progress further. Anyway, it feels good so i think the break was just about needed and of right length 😀 Update: Added Majors up to 15
lucksmith Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 Finally, all Cards done. 🙃 A few are now queued up for a rework (9 of Water, 9 of Fire), maybe some other slight touch ups here and there before it finally gets uploaded and is ready to print 😀
xTheHermitx Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 man...this is great!! Are you still in the mindset of not doing a little white book? Would love to read about the "method behind the madness" here... I would be into getting this set off of PS (paying of course)!!
lucksmith Posted June 30, 2020 Author Posted June 30, 2020 I'm thinking about it, but i'm tending towards not writing one. The purpose of the cards was to create my own "fit" deck for me. For me it works like this: I know the meaning of the basic RWS Card, as well as the question that is being asked. So it comes down to see what the card might express to the reader through, picturestory, symbols. etc., with the RWS Meaning as sort of a baseline for the direction in relation to the question. I dislike the idea to tell anybody which story it might tell them, or to decide which of the symbols they noticed during looking at the card means what. If you spot it, your intuition knows its meaning, otherwise it may not be meant for the moment/question. Or you could look it up in a source you see fit (google, books, ...) to decide on your meaning of it. If i ever make another Deck i promise to write a Whitebook with it 🙃 Update: 9 of Water, 9 of Fire, first reworks
lucksmith Posted October 23, 2020 Author Posted October 23, 2020 Finally i managed to get everything into the correct size & spacing to receive a printed Deck - where i am happy with - from Printerstudio 😀 and also have, at least i hope so, set up everything correct there to make it available as promised here. If there is any issues with that please let me know... Finally - If anybody is interested in obtaining a copy, it is available here now: Printed Deck from Printerstudio 50% of possible revenues will be used to donate the Pixabay Artists that shared their license free pictures which have been solely used to create this Deck.
