theory11 — Magic Tricks & the World's Finest Playing Cards

Saturday Night Contest : Anything But a Castle

here's my entry, i originally had a box similar to nickerus, but decided i wanted to construct something a little different, and i wanted something i could use everyday. Searching for inspiration i came across a video of a "card wallet" to keep your cards safe. Inspiration struck. Hope you like it.

click me

the video showcases it best but here are some additional images



ps. It is hard to film and display a wallet haha. I also really wanted to construct this out of bee's, stingers or some other interesting cards that would look more uniform but ended up doing it out of guardians cause i had a dying deck and because i wanted to use the T11 original. maybe i'll make some more

I was going to make a lifesized statue of Michael Ammar, but I didn't have enough blank cards for his head. So I made a chair instead. I did it fairly well, but I'm going to predict I won't win tonight. A little glib and dull of me, but I just am not feeling it. Oh well. Good luck everyone!

Nice! Really awesome idea!

Cheers
 
First and foremost, great job to all who participated! We enjoyed your entries immensely. In particular, we would like to extend honorable mentions to both dark11kenshin and Nickerus for your submissions. Really creative stuff.

After much deliberation, however, the winner tonight is jrobarts05 for his card wallet HERE. Practical and unique.

Thanks again to all who participated. See you next week! :)
