This is a 54 card deck of hand illustrated playing cards featuring highly detailed pen & Copic marker drawings of Steampunk machinery.
Each King is a ship, its Queen is the control room (or human operating centre), and the Jacks are the weaponry and the engine components. The blue suits are the airships, and the red ships are the rusty oceanic vessels. Every card is unique, and was originally designed, hand-drawn and coloured by me. The jokers are a steampunk deep-sea exploration robot and an astronaut.
The cards themselves are professionally manufactured on 310gsm premium French linen, and come shrink-wrapped inside a durable, clear plastic box.
