Black Roses x Dondorf

I recently talked to Lee Asher and his exact words were: "you've made my day knowing someone is playing with Dondorf art". Of course, since he is a living library when it comes to playing cards I shouldn't be surprised that he knows so much about Dondorf Playing Cards.

It must be something between my own selfishness or OCD but I don't want to print one of my own decks without myself as the King of Diamonds. But I also didn't want to replace the original artwork so the only option is to add one extra King of Diamonds to the deck (again).

The Dondorf King of Diamonds - same as every other court card in this deck - is really interesting. You can clearly see how they have copied the US courts but with a few minor changes. The axe is in front of the body and doesn't disappear behind it - which makes more sense actually. A hand is holding the axe. Like that you can see four hands on the King of Diamonds. An unusual image for us since we aren't used to see that. The only court with four hands from the standard courts that we all know is the King of Hearts.

I donโ€˜t wanna rush things so I canโ€˜t really tell you anything because I really donโ€˜t know it yet. :D Everything needs to feel right and of course everything needs to be finished first ๐Ÿ˜…

When are you thinking on making these cards? I think these will be so cool.

Iโ€™m glad you noticed it! That is exactly what I thought as well and Iโ€˜ll think about it. The thing is there is a lot wrong with my court haha. The only reason why I never updated it in all my previous decks is because Iโ€˜m already so used to it. This makes it so difficult for me to change it.

Personally I think itโ€™s awesome, but maybe you should make a small change in your KD hair for this deck. Because the detail on it now fits perfectly with the Faces of an USPCC deck. But with this deck the hair seems to be drawn differently
