Cuss Cards update.

One thing about being excluded from cyberspace for the last few days is that I got some work done.

The second set of the Cuss cards are done - I am now in the process of making the printing plates (not an easy task!)

The book is nearing completion too.
Just the bags, dice, charms and packaging to go!

Some folk still prefer the old set........

Help me decide - full story here:

Authenticity and all that aside, I really prefer the old colored set.

Beautiful work, really.

I'm torn they both look good

to echo my sentiments from the above:
I favor the colored as work of art, a deck to use on the off chance amongst a group of friends or family members.
However, to me, the b/w set seems the most usable for performance or regular us. Perhaps something that came up during the Spanish Inquisition era, as a symbol of disdain for the rulers of the day left at the door front of the local burgher or constable.
Just my opinion,
YT

And to continue to expound:
The colored set is beautiful, and if I was able I would get them both.
But the b/w images, that I can't get away from as they are everywhere in my mind, my sleep, the dreams that turn sour.

Simply brilliant.
I can't wait!

Hey, you kinda look like Richard Osterlind!

Please remove my vote as I spent a bit more time looking at the cards and I now prefer the black and white set.
