After great interest and demand, I have more counters!
Here we have a swamp by Rob Alexander.
I seem to really like Rob A.'s work, most of his pieces have some nice depth but are also defined enough to really work with.

____________________FAQ___________________
- How many cards does it take?
It takes at least 12 cards to be a working abacus, but I like to stick with 14, feels good in the hand and gives a great range of depth.
- How annoying is it to get 14 of the same card?
So far, it's just a little time consuming going through 7 boxes of land that we already have. But we keep them by color so it's not that hard.
- I have man hands and don't want to break it!
Seriously, you could drop the thing on the floor and there should be no problems! Each one weighs less then a D20 (no joke,) and are so rock hard that you could only really maybe scratch the edges and bring out a little of the white underneath the print. Even the design work like branches that hover above the background become very ridged with the glue used. But working the beads could take a little getting use to. One of the cards in your hand makes a great pick.
- How long does each one take?
If I took a guess, maybe 3-5 hours each not counting the drying time. I've not timed myself properly because it's just a hobby I do on the side of other happenings.
- Are you selling them?
Yes, I do sell them at either conventions or on my Etsy shop. http://www.etsy.com/shop/TigressGraphics
- Do you make customs?
Right now this is JUST a hobby and don't plan on taking any direction commissions or on demand orders in the near future. I draw and sew for business now, this is a hobby, I would like to keep loving it. Also, with customs comes the demand for a specific piece of artwork, and that is more then I want to delve into myself.
- What if I have the cards already and want to get a commissions?
Save those and we can talk later on about what I'm doing. I might have you mail me the cards plus a few spares for "oopsies."
- Can you do ANY card?
I will do more then land for sure! BUT! Not ALL cards can be made into 3D objects and make sense.
- Hey, I have a TON of land I was going to toss, do you want it/buy it?
Donations I can't really say no to and would pay the shipping; buying is another matter. You can check with me, but chances are, I'm not looking to acquire more anyway be it donation or buying.
- Have you ever thought about mixing cards?
As in, I take a planes for a background and maybe use a forest in the foreground? Yes, I have thought about doing that, but it can be much harder to do, also I like to make sure the original artist's name is visible, and I would have to splice the background one to the front. I'm an artist. I don't want my name to disappear, so I respect other artists! :D
