BRB, I think I need a deck of Labyrinth playing cards.
Death
The Wooden Tarot is not made of wood. Andrew L. Swartz originally painted them on wood, and thus the name.

The Devil
The Wooden Tarot is one of a trilogy of decks available on Etsy (where you can get a few other goodies) and his website, Skullgarden.
Jason Monkman does miniature sculpts with incredible detail. His online presence is scattered here and there, so here’s his facebook page, and his deviantArt.
