A whole year after the first Venexiana deck, the story continues with a travel to the dark heart of 18th century Venice. Venexiana Dark features a series of obscure and marginal characters who complete the picture of this haunting city. Thieves, assassins, prostitutes, wicked noblemen and masters of deception are all on board in this imaginary gondola. Hop in and follow the journey to the unknown through the narrow canals of Venice.

Venexiana Dark is in fact two different decks: The "Masked" and the "Revealed" editions, with the first one featuring the courts wearing masks, while the second has the courts unmasked and their faces revealed!

There was a mixup in production which resulted in the tucks for the decks being mixed (masked card in revealed tuck and vice-versa).  This was only noticed after initial shipments were started and then shipment halted to allow the decks to be re-packaged.  As a result, some decks exist with the wrong cards in the wrong tuck, but the majority are assumed to have been corrected.

Masquerade: Mardi Gras Edition is the latest creation in BrainVessel's Artist Series Playing Cards featuring the artwork of International Canadian Artist Denyse Klette. In our previous kickstarter, Masquerade Playing Cards where we created the black and white Masquerade themed deck, we had a stretch goal for the colorized Mardi Gras version of the deck. Unfortunately we did not reach that stretch goal. However we thought the Mardi Gras deck was so special it deserves to be made into its own Kickstarter and we hope you think so to.

Printed by the USPCC with the same quality and attention to detail as our previous decks.

Printed on premium USPCC cardstock

Classic Air-Cushion Finish for ease of shuffling and optimum performance

Custom illustrations by Denyse Klette on all of the court cards, back card, and jokers as well as custom pip illustrations for the numbered cards.

Custom tuck printed on Natural Pearl stock with a BrainVessel seal

Scans of each card can be seen atwww.marytcusack.com/maryc/Cards/Timeless.html Timeless is another release by RSVP Magic and features early work from designer Lotrek of Half Moon Playing Cards. A really sharp fully custom deck with a well designed back that lends itself well to the theme and keeps a two way back design dynamic. The deck also features slightly stylized pips, custom Ace of Spades and only one Joker. The deck also comes with two "gaff" cards and a double backer for some nice effects. Note the two images of the King of Hearts below...very subtle. Built into this very special deck are the following unique features: Each custom designed court card depicts a different hour of the day and these have been printed in 'Chased' order allowing for some superb effects that are unique only to this deck. Ideas are limited only by your imagination. Includes one custom designed Joker, a duplicate King of Diamonds with a different time feature that allows for the effect of moving a time to the predicted one, a duplicate Jack of Spades with a broken clock face and one double backer.

Grotesk Macabre is the evolution of "Grotesque", which was the UC2014 annual deck. Taking this deck as a starting point, I tried to create my own vision of the Underworld. Although a joyful and positive person myself, I had always been attracted to dark themed artwork. I find fascinating how artists throughout the centuries have imagined the world of the dead and how they dealt with the greatest fear of mankind. In Grotesk Macabre I tried to combine the darkest of all themes with the heavy elegance of baroque and the pointy, flamboyant Gothic art.

Laissez les bon temps rouler! Let the good times roll, y'all! This is a deck inspired by the annual celebration and party that is Mardi Gras.

Illustrated by Dave Edgerly, artist behind Edgy Brothers' Dia de los Muertos playing cards and the Grimoire Series, this deck will have completely custom courts, AoS and Jokers - all based on the celebration and inspired by the krewes of Mardi Gras.

Intricately designed with a classic Southern feel, these cards appeal to my Cajun roots and remind me of how much I enjoy visiting New Orleans, especially during Carnival season!
