The Ad Lucem Playing Cards project was recently fulfilled after successful funding on Kickstarter, and I just got mine in the mail yesterday. It's a Renaissance themed deck that was produced by the collaborative efforts of Christian Buss (project visionary and art manager), Ritu Bhattacharva (lead artist/illustrator) and Bivas Bhattacharjee (digital artist and designer).

This project turned out magnificent, especially the Sovereign Edition. The gold foil on the card faces really looks stunning, especially in combination with gilded edges. This deck was printed by WJPC, and they've done a great job with the quality. It turned out exactly as good as you see in the pictures below.

The artwork is beautiful, and it's a picture of class all round. Amazing work once again from Bivas and Ritu, and from Chris!



























The special 3D rotating Renaissance coin also looks fantastic.
