Culminus Playing Cards were created by designer Nicolai Aaroe in 2017. These cards examine the contrast between angels and demons. Now, the new edition, Culminus Immortalis Playing Cards, comes with retouched artworks and exclusive features.
There are two main editions during the Kickstarter Campaign – Incarnum and Celestia. Incarnum edition represents the devil, having the cards in dark color scheme. Celestia edition represents the angels, having the cards in light color scheme. Both tuck boxes feature premium matte stock with black and gold foil along with strategic embossing.
The back design of the cards features a two-way illustration. Incarnum features the two-way artworks of a demonic ram skull with tridents and skulls, while Celestia features the two-way artworks of a fleur-de-lis with a pair of wings and crosses.
All the Aces feature enlarged pips, illustrated with great details, with the Ace of Spades showcasing the most elaborate one. The Number Cards for these decks will not be featuring pips, but descriptions of sins and virtues. All the courts are full length half bust illustrations of the characters complete with their names. The Jokers feature a diptych artwork of a circular tablet.
The cards will be printed in MPC on M31 Linen Finish. Pledge starts from $14 on Kickstarter.
