Trying to get a good look at the orange and see how it works. I agree, it's a very tough colour to work with. Given the label, I think white works best and black isn't that bad. A lot of the reason the Empress 1k works is the play between the dark edge spot and the black inlay.

I would buy any of these...but again, I would only buy up to 1 rack.
 
Does Matsui give a discount for the artwork fees if you just change the denomination? Similar to BCC back in the days.

Only if we hit the 10k chip total that I spoke of earlier. The discount is t as much as you would think, but yes. I need to get final numbers before they will give me final costs, but we have a possibility of getting the per denom cost down to $175 for Matsui artwork fees.
 
I won't be much help to hit the 10K. Are you planning to offer sample sets as well?

I will order a couple extra barrels of everything to offer sample sets after the chips get here, but I am not going to take orders for sample sets. Someone else can coordinate that if they want to.

We'll easily hit 10k. I think you, me, and @DrStrange will cover about half of that.
 
I'm torn between the red and orange $5. Originally I was going to go red but the more I look at the orange, the more I want it, especially with yellow...

Now that I see my proposed lineup, I don't think the orange/white fits as well as the orange/yellow. This is HARD!

Like the orange with light blue
 
Hmm...

Now three chips with light blue instead of three chips with lemon. I dunno, for me, the light blue seems to jarr with the orange. And I love lemon...
For what I am planning, any of the orange chips you mocked up will work. For your lineup...I like the orange w/black or orange with white. Blue or yellow will make too much blue or yellow in your set.

No such thing as too much yellow!
 
Were looking at a few different things. Removing the "land", trying different outlines on the structures. Honestly, I don't think any of them will pass through the committee :)

I think you‘re on the right way. I don‘t know if it‘s just me but there‘s somerhing which looks „not right“. No offense just food for thoughts.

Did you try to mirror the background? Now it shows mostly negativ diagonals. Positiv diagionals may help to make the background look errr ... positiver. :D
Maybe a light fading from the inside to outside would make it lock less solid, too.
 
The background isn’t just something we came up with. It is an image associated with the Nevada Lodge Casino, Tahoe.

@MoscowRadio is very busy and has helped a lot to get to this point. I don’t know how much more of his time I am going to get before this order must go in.

I appreciate all of the feedback on the inlay. But this is likely to be what we are going with.

I understand that not everyone loves all things Nevada Lodge like I do, even if pretty obscure. :)

We didn't get a mock up without the land base?

FWIW, the inlay is my least concern.

1. Square edges
2. Square edges
3. Square edges
4. colors
 
I want to say, working with Mel and Mike on this project has been awesome. I think were 40 pages deep lol
 
I just found this thread. How much per chip estimate? Or can someone please point me to the post with $ info.
 
Anyone have a good suggestion for $1-2 NL 600 piece set. I don’t want $100s that will be cash but will use $20s or $25s.
 
I like the bright orange and white and the bright orange and light blue second
 
Orange with white or dark blue for me. Def not yellow...
Dammit - I knew I should have said I like the white one then Mr. BG would say he liked the yellow...

Seriously though, I'm not fussed - I'm kinda moving back to being happier with the red anyway. This looked great the first time I did it so I should just stick with what caught my eye first...

If the bright orange happens, I will buy a rack. If the bright orange doesn't happen, I will buy a rack of something else. I am also buying a rack of the white hundo. But that's it for me.
 
Depending on how everything ends up im still thinking cali.
