Custom artwork group buy. US/CAN CARDS MOLD (9 Viewers)

[Kid_Eastwood]

I only have exp. with SunFly. I used to start the first spot at the very begining of the edge strip. I never had an issue doing that.
You can also center all spots with the edge strip or even start at an arbitrary point (that's what I did for the ACF as I created spot imperfections, I could not start from the very begining).

In the end what is important is to have everything perfectly on scale.

I'd personnally not split a spot in two on the design though. It'll make it a little bit more complex for the printer I think.

Oh dear lawd, YAS! You uh, you saw my note on samples right?

@Eloe2000 I saw these and immediately thought of you. You need to plant some more fruit trees in the backyard so you can make some more custom sets.

 

[SeanGecko]

Hey everyone FYI this will be a US/CANADA group buy, when it comes to other countries I can't do it this time and that @LeGold has shared that he will be able to help next time with shipping to some European and European surrounding countries.

"we do not want to made any mistake for these orders. we will made samples one by one to confirm and then mass production. "


We only need 13 more members on art. We are cooking here!

Haha, and coincidentally I think I just decided to another Casa Mango inlay on this set!

If I can enter the group buy (ex: if the manufacturer is ok to ship direct to me) or if someone is ok to reship to me, I'd like to order a tournament set :

When looking at my design, I start to fear that under low light, the 100 and 500 base color choice might not be ideal.

What do you think ?

What do you think ?

To be safe, I switched the base color of the 500 with the spot color of the 5000.

Before :

After :

Additional questions :

What's the dimensions of the dealer buttons (diameter and thickness) ?
Are they min. order quantity for the dealer buttons too ?

They still have a similar purple feel. Maybe make the 5k a light blue base.

I think the pink 5000 and light purple 5000 will be OK and won't be mixed.
My fear was the base color of the 100 and the base color of the 500 that could be too close in low light.

You simply must have a dealer button made to go with this set. I love this design.

I have to say that I’ve been fairly impressed so far with all the responses/interactions/processes you have shared regarding this vendor. Thanks again for taking the lead on this.

 

[PlaidDragon]

So, art - not that I'd call this art per se. Nonetheless, I've finally concluded that I like this well enough to share. @SeanGecko , am I mailing an .svg to you?

Not trying to dump on your design; however, I'd be concerned though about too much blue/grey in the set.

Inlay art is VERY cool though.

 

[Eloe2000]

In the end I am chickening out on all of the other inlay designs I had come up with and just going to a black base version of my existing Casa Mango inlay.

 

[timinater]

I would advise against splitting spots on your rolling edge artwork.

I agree. I’d rather any imperfections or misalignment be on the base colour where the area is larger and less of a focal point than a spot.

On all of the aces artwork he split the edges like that, and I’m not sure why it was done that way. Just seems like more work for no reason on the front end, and may or may not be more work aligning for the printers.

That $5 would be the absolute bomb, star of the set! Love it.

No spot variance (other than color) on $100+ chips?

Thank you!

The .25-20 is cash and the 100-5000 is tournament, but if absolutely necessary I could use the $100 etc for cash. So essentially there is spot variance through the $100 for cash games.

 

[SeanGecko]

I know we are waiting to get some art done. No one is missing out due to art not being finished yet. If you confirmed with me you're in. Message me when you're ready to send art.
Thank you.

MAN OF THE PEOPLE!!

 

[SeanGecko]

People art to piggy back on if you can also put it in the https://www.pokerchipforum.com/thre...om-artwork-group-buy-us-can-cards-mold.59277/
That would be great.

Many of you know me as a sample collector, and a somewhat vicious one at that, but there's also quite a few people in this awesome GB that I haven't interacted with before.

I've privately reached out to one or two folks asking if I might purchase a sample of their design, but I'd like to say here that if you're willing to sell a sample, please keep me in mind!

Some of these have just been amazeballs, and much like I did when we had a large influx of CC 8vs, I'd love to get a ton of these all together for a Cards Mold customs display.

Totally understand for those that don't like to share or sell custom samples, but if you don't mind, let's get those beauties displayed!

Thanks,
Jeff (Barrie)

Yes, I've been thinking that maybe we need a "Samples" thread for this group buy. Or we could use the already existing Artwork thread where supposedly all finished artwork is to be posted. I'd be willing to do the tracking and number crunching if y'all would like me to. Unless @SeanGecko would prefer to have it added to his tracking schedule. We may want to get this going before order numbers need to be absolutely finalized in case some of these sets get a lot more interest than the owner had allowed for originally. I have about 8 sample sets built in to my numbers based on plans to gift one to Tim and one to Sean, plus a couple of other inquiries that I received.

 

[chrismurda]

A samples exchange thread for those involved in the group buy for any available or left over samples after shipments are received would be an idea.

edit: and also interest for those outside of the group buy.

I am not messing with the samples. Over 50,000 chips. Samples are going to need to be sent out after I ship it out to the OG buyer.

Edit: I think I would fail at it is why.

 

[Kid_Eastwood]

@chrismurda , @SeanGecko and @justincarothers ,
If you wont use the T1 chip and since it's solid and quite different than the other chips, if you want to make it a bounty chip (KO), let me know.

 

[Kid_Eastwood]

Here's the updated design for @SeanGecko with the T1 as bounty chip.

@chrismurda and @justincarothers , do you want the same update for your design ?

 

[chrismurda]

@Kid_Eastwood I’ll keep the T1 as is since I’ll be using this breakdown as a cash/tourney set.

I am good with mine like it is, Thanks!

 

[Kid_Eastwood]

Very small update, I changed "no cash value" for "paid on delivery" for the bounty chip.

 

[Kid_Eastwood]

@Kid_Eastwood I’ll keep the T1 as is since I’ll be using this breakdown as a cash/tourney set.

If you want the 2 versions of the white, 1 and KO, I can also do.

43mm are no mold right?

Correct.
