"Princess Arya" by Arne

No matter how you shuffle them, you're dealt a dead man's hand every single time.  Okay, okay, these aren't actually cards, they're posters, but if they were printed onto a proper deck, I'd buy one.  Arne is the only designer to think of changing the suits to house sigils, and I think that's an especially nice touch.

"A while back, Jim Tuckwell started a project where he illustrated a few playing cards as a fan tribute to Game of Thrones. Like everyone else, I was floored by his work and loved the idea. I wanted a deck for myself, but realizing he hasn't made much progress on the project, I decided to create my own. This is the fruit of that labor.

This is a full 54-card poker-sized deck of playing cards. Each of the royals and jokers are hand drawn and the Aces are the house sigils."

"Game of Thrones Playing Cards" by Jim Tuckwell

Graphic designer Jim Tuckwell created playing cards printed with characters from Game of Thrones. Unfortunately, you can’t currently buy a full pack, (too many kings and queens).  Read an interview with Tuckwell at Youth Designer.

"Still a work in progress, Jim’s series of playing cards will feature the four major houses representing the suits, with Spades for Starks, Diamonds for Lannisters, Clubs the Targaryaens, and Hearts for the Baratheons. I’m hoping to see the finished product cards some day, especially with Vaerys and Little Finger as Jokers…. but please for the love of the Eight, no Joffrey… I might just tear that card up in rage."
