First Paulsons. First time designing a label (1 Viewer)

[JeepologyOffroad]

Wizards around here. Just viewed it on my phone rather than my huge monitor and yep no outline looks better for sure. Thanks fellas.

Now to think of a name and clean it up.

Cool design btw!

 

[Dodger]

I'm terrible with names though so I'm all ears to anyone that wants to spitball and throw some out there.

Enchanted Card Room (play on the state nickname)

No outlines and I think it is a killer lineup! Congrats on putting together such a nice set. I hope your players appreciate nice chips! I refuse to put nice Paulson's on my felt unless I was to have an all PCF game!

Now, compare it to the OP and take a bow. Nice work!

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

All the way to the right! I prefer the thicker zia stripes and the larger denom text.

I did at first too, but after sleeping on it, the less pronounced Zia I think I prefer. Going to make it just a tad thicker.

Thank you thank you. This set will probably see the most use out of all of them. Cash games are a rarity unfortunately.

You should see where the concept first started lol

Enchanted Card Room (play on the state nickname)

I don't hate it. The longer I sit on it the more I think it may wear on me.

Made a couple of minor changes here. Still needs lots of adjusting and cleaning up, but not too shabby

 

[Saoliver]

Very nice, but the green chip needs a green Zia, no?

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

Lol I think we both noticed that at the same time. Just finished editing the post when you commented.

Man I really dig this design. I seriously wish I knew how to do graphics like this. I've been trying for less than 24 hours to use illustrator to make a simple poker felt design and I'm to the point of throwing my monitor across the room. You guys make it look so easy.

The colors on the chips are fantastic.

 

[Saoliver]

@ekricket Have you seen these? Your fellow statesman is doing excellent work.

 

[Dodger]

Other name ideas:

-Sol Naciente Card Room (Rising Sun in Spanish)

-Tierra del Sol Card Room (Land of the Sun)

-Desert Wilderness Card Room

I think using state animal/bird/etc. could be okay, but then it begs the question of whether or not that should be represented on the chip.

Any specific parts of the state (or town you are from) you are connected to that would make a good potential name?

Yep, following and conversing with him as these are going to be kickass.
I’m thinking they will look pretty good on some nice no-mold Paulsons......

Thanks. I’m no guru but been doing it for a few years and just taught myself. The creative idea and concept of something is the hard part. Spend a week and 2 with illustrator and I bet you can make your idea come to life.

You’re good at this. I did consider using Roadrunner but had the same thought of well then it should be on the chip. Connections to the state would be Ruidoso/Alto, Clovis, and Las Cruces. Names for things always take me forever. Enchanted is wearing on me though.

@Saoliver do the green Karl’s you have pop in person? The lime green is what I was planning on using for the T25 but in this mock-up I used Day Green because the Paulson lime green photo looked terrible lol.

Colors I was planning on and pictured besides green are:

Lime green
Black or Showboat
Fuchsia
Blaze Orange
Horizon Blue

Yes. They are really cool. If oiled they would really pop, but I haven't oiled any of them. That picture is not mine, so I cannot say for sure they it wasn’t enhanced. But I don’t think it was. The picture below is mine, taken with my iPhone. I can say for sure that it was not enhanced.

The way you designed "Enchanted" on the chip in your mockups looks fantastic to me (and sounds great too). But, alas, this is not my set - it's yours! If you are into creating a Spanish name for the set, another idea that popped up was using the state nickname in Spanish - "Tierra del Encanto"

But, keeping the set named "Enchanted" leaves room to use these other naming ideas for other items in your poker room. You could use the Roadrunner or Black Bear on bounty chips/etc. in the future.

 

[Dodger]

Completely looking over the obvious - "Zia Card Room"

Excellent. Appreciated. I think I’ll stick with lime green in that case. Don’t happen to have a day green to compare do you?

I really think enchanted is going to stick. It’s simple and does what it’s supposed to. Thanks for the help there.

I have Scandia $25s. I think that the spot on those are day green. If I remember tonight, I will get a picture with them together.

I'll just leave it to the pros. I have the program so I'll keep playing with it but I'm not holding my breath.

Nice. Would definitely be appreciated.

More chips showed up today for this set. Finally get to see blaze in person. It is awesome.

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

These look great together. Curious to see how the blaze looks once cleaned and oiled.

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

I am excite. Leaning towards sticking with black hundos instead of showboat and hoping for the best

 

[Dodger]

Soooo siiiick!

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

And before I go on a spending spree some more, the middle barrel in this pic should be Horizon blue correct?

 

[Klobberer]

Are you doing your own graphics? Nice job...

Thank you sir. Sure am. Taught myself illustrator a few years ago. I have a small business as a side gig designing and selling Jeep related shirts, hats, stickers etc. Glad the skill is coming in handy elsewhere.
