Tarot of Brass & Steam

[BrassAndSteam]

Hello CoT! I just found your site, and want to tell you a little about my just -completed steampunk tarot deck, the Tarot of Brass & Steam!

Set in a world where Tesla (the Magician) was able to flourish, because Edison (The Devil) was a man who kept his bargains, this deck explores a world of steampunk, with illustrated majors, court cards, and aces (the "pip" cards recycle the Ace imagery). I designed the deck and worked with a number of artists to get it illustrated--the whole process took almost 8 years, including a successful Kickstarter a few years back.

This is my first deck, and I did my best to make the imagery useful for readings, as well as just being full of gorgeous art, so it could hopefully be useful either as an art deck or a "real" tarot. What I tried to do was reduce each card to a core concept (relying heavily on the Thoth meanings in many cases, though my Court cards are based more on RWS), and then create a steampunk image based on that concept for an artist to illustrate.

You can find more info, including where to buy the cards (from my store or Amazon), along with the art, on the deck's website:
