Looks great!

How about showing a lantern in one of the windows and having just a little bit of glow from inside the house to add a few highlights? Probably adds a lot more work for Woody but just throwing it out there.

Can I get on the list as second alternate for samples? I totally whiffed on getting on the list somehow.

Trying to pass the time waiting for these to arrive, I don't know how you guys that have to wait all year for the mold you want do it!!!

To pass they time I mocked up some secondary chips and some $0.25's as well.

I tried to keep the edgespot similar for each chip to the original.

I emailed David this morning to see if he could give me an estimated lead time for these. Great news, he expects them to be done in 1-2 weeks!!!

Looking forward to seeing pics of the actual chips. In about 2 weeks and 3 days-ish?!

I did the same for my set!

They won't be here tomorrow after all. I guess the label was produced but it hasn't been shipped yet. Hopefully in the next few days they will actually ship.

Yeah that first notice is just the shipping label being created then it usually gets shipped starting with the next day. It's funny the amount of anxiety/anticipation that that email causes (in a positive way). Such a great feeling.

Posted in the wrong thread the first time lol.

Here is my proof dealer button. It looks great and I told Sal to go ahead and get them all made.

Planning on a $500 chips. I'm stealing the design from the dealer button for it, which was really supposed to be the $500 chip anyways.

Here is the chip design. Going with red denomination, not yellow.

It's not final, but I like it a lot. I would like the moon to be brighter on the art only side.

Love it. Perfect !

Have a few more tweaks to the $500 chip. Brightened the moon. Adjusted the $500 on the art side to fit over the moon for easy reading.

Added an outline to the $500 on the name side to make it easier to read as well. It does change the format of the chip from the rest of the set, but the dark background makes it different already so I think it worth making the change to have it be easily readable. Let me know your thoughts.
