Thanks Wolfie, much appreciated. Metal
Funky Dates trading cards are now live on Kickstarter. There are several reward levels ranging from 1 pack ( all packs include a sketch card) to master sets including original art used in the making of the cards. Feel free to go take a look.
Thanks for your time.

Thanks Webjohn!
FUNKY DATES UPDATE:
Trying to price a new card set isn't an easy task. This is my first self produced project and it's been quite a learning curve. Funky Dates was influenced by old card sets like 'You'll Die Laughing' 'Mars Attacks' and 'Outer Limits', and also by newer card sets as produced by Perna Studios (of who I am a great fan.) The project is now live on Kickstarter and needs your support. I feel I may have overpriced the initial cost of the packs so have reduced them to £24 from £30. Hopefully this will encourage people to try a pack or two.

What is Funky Dates?
It's an ongoing series of cards featuring weird characters in a humourous vein with their profile details on the backs of the cards. I've got some great ideas for future characters and want to bring other artist's on board for the next release.

Each pack contains a full color sketch card by myself. If this first wave gets funded then I intend to include sketch cards from some of the best and in demand sketch card artist's out there for the next series.

Here are some of the sketch cards in this first release. Please check it out on Kickstarter.com for full details of all the chase cards and inserts. Nik

WebJon thank you so much for spotting that. I had changed the prices in the graphics shown on the left and forgot to change it in the boxes on the right. All sorted now. Thanks again!

Funky Dates has now reached it's goal on Kickstarter.com and will be sent out just after the funding project ends. I'd like to get it out to a wider audience though so I will now be putting 2 sketch cards in every pack! If you buy a pack or a master set or a super master set you will now get 2 sketch cards! If you select the 3-pack deal it will now include 6 sketches! This of course includes the people who have already pledged. I'll be selling Funky Dates packs via other outlets later but this 2 sketch per pack deal is for Kickstarter users only. There's just over a week left to take advantage of this offer.

Nik
