For ppl who don't know what I do: I have made my own pixel cards to spread them around the world in the future. Here, I am going to divide this topic into several parts to post new updates
NEW CARDS AND THEIR QUALITY
In October, I got the cards from the biggest factory in Russia. And, yes, they are of excellent quality! Let's see them in detail

PROBLEMS WITH TYPOGRAPHY
I think you remember the first paragraph of my plan:
The typography I negotiated for long have let me down! In 2 weeks of usage my cards I noticed that the cardboard box was completely frayed, and the laminate on the back of each card began to flake off
Then I asked my typography about these problems and they answered that it it okay because their laminate doesn't adhere well to black paint, though they hadn't told me it before I ordered the test deck!!! VERY COOL!
I was so angry and nervous a week before the giveaway, because I had to start a stream soon to choose 3 winners but what I only had is a piece of shit in my hands! When I showed my cards in the previous topic they really looked nice but not now.
During this period, fortunately, I have found another foreign card maker which has a big plant in Russia! I really liked how its manager showed interest and told in detail how and what they do. The main thing is that it is a professional card maker and not an ordinary printing house, which made me very happy
I ordered its samples of different materials to check them out. By the way, I froze the giveaway until I received the high-quality deck, which is not a shame not only to sell, but also to give away for free!
Am I sorry it happened? On the one hand, yes, because I had to put off the giveaway, a lot of people in Russia and CIS were waiting for long! On the other hand, now, I communicate with professionals who dedicated me to the topic of making playing cards, so I learned a lot for myself!
THE BEGINNING
1.5 month ago, I started drawing my own pixel cards to make a small card game with my friend. When I finished, someone advised me to print them and it was a very cool idea but hard, as well. For 3 weeks, I was looking for printing services, negotiating a lot on terms and conditions, fixing the card's sprites to make them suitable for printing. Now, I have an idea to sell the decks, but before that moment I have to spend much time to plan everything.
On Friday, I got a new deck with another plastic material which is a little more solid than the previous one. Anyway, now I know what the characteristics of the product are the most suitable for sales.
