The first "what I want" email to J5 after deciding on P&P:
To the inlays themselves... I would like to go with a pirate theme. I would like to call the set "Pillage & Plunder" and I would like the inlays to be slightly different on each side of the chip. Basically I would like text across the top (Pillage & Plunder), an image in the middle and smaller text along the bottom ("Take what you can" on front, "Give nothing back" on back).
For color I was considering white-on-black on the front and black-on-white on the back but am open to suggestions.
And for the image I have included a general example (found randomly on the net)... some type of skull & crossbones or skull & cross swords, ideally dark on the left and fading out to nothing on the right in a similar way to the attached picture but would prefer more of a "fade". And evil would be preferred over "jolly" if that makes sense.
I have no idea what-so-ever where to put the denomination, hoping you may be able to come up with something.
Initial J5 mockups
Thoughts after receiving mockups:
I like the design of the two on the left quite a bit although after seeing them I am not crazy about the white backgrounds... I also don't see a font that grabs me yet for Pillage & Plunder but I do really like the banner at the bottom of the top/middle chip.
Requested changes:
I've asked about going with black on one side and color matched to the base on the other while adding the banner from the top/middle chip to the design of the bottom/left one. I would also like to see how the banner looks on top rather than bottom and possibly go with bottom on the front and top on the back if I like the look.
I would also like to see a new font for P&P and provided him with this to try out if possible
