This is more than a Kickstarter project to me, this is a life long dream come true to design a deck of cards inspired by currency.
All my life I have had a love of traditional engraving designs of bank notes and currency. I have also always had a dream that I could one day design an entire deck of cards. Finally this is the realization of that dream, taking two elements that I love and have been inspired by my whole life, and melding them together into one fresh new idea, The Federal 52 Deck of Bicycle Brand playing cards.
I hope that this project will inspire you. I hope that the amount of work and love that I pour into the designs shines through in the quality of these playing cards.
Be a part of the creation process as you follow me throughout the 40 day campaign and watch as the cards take shape and come alive.

I want to send a very special and very huge thank you out to my brother Taylor for giving up his free time to help me produce the Kickstarter video. Taylor owns a production studio in Birmingham Alabama called Six Foot Five Productions. His work is stellar in all accounts and I couldn't have done this without his help.
Here is a link to my brothers website:

Note: All images are simply examples of what the final art may look like. The process of creating a deck like this is ever changing, the designs you see in the images may vary slightly on the final product.
Risks and challenges
The main risk and challenges will be the production process once the project as been successfully funded. To help ease any road bumps during production I have already built a solid relationship with the reps at Bicycle and The United States Playing Card company. I also have spent hours studying other successful Playing Card projects of other creators that have gone before me.
