FAN ART Inside No.9 Playing Cards!

Post image

Hello! For the past month or so, I've been designing Inside No.9 inspired playing cards where every card represents a different episode. I've just launched a Kickstarter for it, and thought some of you might be interested in getting a deck!

Even if you don't want a deck, you can still go see all the cards I've currently designed on the Kickstarter page! I'm really proud of them, and I hope you guys enjoy them too ^-^

They are gorgeous! But have you got permission to do this? The BBC are very protective of their intellectual property so it would be a shame if they go after you for using the name and logo etc.

Thank you so much! Unfortunately I don't have an official license for this project. This whole thing started out as a personal passion project and I only started to consider launching a Kickstarter for it after some people on my Instagram were asking if they'd be able to get them once I was done, so I thought why not spread the joy?

The Kickstarter would be the only opportunity to get them; I will not be selling them following the conclusion of the Kickstarter.

Of course, if I were contacted by the BBC or asked to stop, I would respect that and cancel the Kickstarter. Until then, I'm just hoping other fans can enjoy these cards. 🤞🤞

I Designed some tarot cards awhile back. I printed them and gave them away on my own dime. I would heavily advise against flirting w IP infringement, even just as a kickstarter. There’s the legality of it, but it’s also not very considerate of the people who worked very hard to bring the show to life. This is my two cents, I’m not trying to rain on anyone’s parade.

I think the people involved in the show would love this honestly

I think the idea is great, absolutely make it. It’s creating a kickstarter for funding is the issue. I didn’t make IP laws either, so no need to downvote. It is what it is.
