DECK NOW AVAILABLE FOR SALE. POST #31 GIVES DETAILS
Wow, 4 months ago would never have imagined this being possible.
Prototype print arrived and I am very pleased with it.
The photos do not do justice to the colours.
They are not as washed out looking when in your hand. Usually it is the other way round - you hear complaints of washed out images when they arrive compared to richly coloured on the PC screen. Not this time, but hubby did say he had worked hard to get the lighting and colour matching as close as he could for his own projects.
For now I will be bonding with the deck and will shortly offer a few readings on the readings forum with it.
Plastic copy for personal use ordered (an indulgence I think I have earned...lol)
Once the book is formatted and converted to a PDF, I will consider offering it for sale. My husband (bless him - he has the patience of a saint when it comes to me and anything to do with computers) is trying to work through the pig's ear I created. It looks great in word.doc form and printed, but when he turns on that paragraph thingie, it is all over the show.
I thought I had done enough just using page breaks. As for headings, what are they?? I created a few where I didn't know I had, but in the wrong places apparently.
In the meantime, I want to just share how it turned out.
4 photos of the deck this time, not just screen shots from the upload page.
** ** Title card (If anyone wants to come up with a name for him feel free - it would be kinda cute to give him one)
** **How it looks in the hand with the poker size and small borders.
** **Favourites (which I know will change over time)
** **Those which caused me to head scratch or were tricky.
The 4 of Swords is made up of two images. Steve drew two versions and I liked the pixie from one, but the water another.
The king of Pents was very roughly drawn. That I had to tidy up but not remove the wrong lines etc.
5 of Chalices had me learning how to do puddles effectively. Not that easy trust me. But I got there.
Wish me well over the next few weeks. A deck bonding reading then followed by a reading to try and get some insights into tonight's rugby game. Not a reading most would consider as relevant but if you live in NZ you would totally understand
11 years in the making, and I feel so darned proud and privileged. Not a project I will be undertaking again though. I have no idea for another deck, nor do I have the skills to draw one should it happen. So this is it folks. The one and only.
