Thoughts on a new dealer button (1 Viewer)

Hi everyone,

Please can you leave an honest response? My feelings won't be hurt

I like the face except for the bullet holes...maybe replace the holes on the rolling edge with guns. I do like where you are going.

I like it but instead of those little holes try just a couple large more detailed bullet holes?

[spikeithard]

yes that looks better.. still love the idea of 2-3 larger bullet holes with the edges of the holes bent in.

Getting there but I would try larger and more of a silver exit punch out area like above what I posted

So my thought on the larger bullet holes is thus;

Even though fantasy, both 9mm and Tommy Guns (both represented on the chip) only shoot a small calibre bullet. The bullet holes on the chip right now, don't look like a 9mm hole.I don't want the holes to represent a .50cal. That's too much.

ahhhh gotchya. Not really up to snuff with my bullet exit hole looks lol

maybe then leave them off?

 

[Mesnik44]

I unfortunately have a special expertise in both 9mm and .50cal.

I think I may revert to the old bullet holes as that is my actual logo.

I do appreciate ALL of the advice. Thank you so much.

Hey, on the rolling edge, alternate having the gun and Dealer lettering upside down so regardless of what side is up the rolling edge still reads.

ditto on rolling edge comments....

Can you post pics of the chip set? Don't remember what they look like, and that info would be helpful when providing comments on the dealer button artwork.

I think the artwork is fine -- skeletons not my style, but not my chips/button.

Rolling edge should show "DEALER tommygun {DEALER tommygun} DEALER tommygun {DEALER tommygun}" but making those in shown in brackets upside down (but in the same alternating order). Having adjacent DEALER text and tommygun art looks odd.

Also not sure how well those guns will show on black background. I'd consider making the rolling edge white, just like the chip inlays.

How about one bullet hole, 9mm (actual size?)

Do the art around the hole, and when the button arrives, drill it out!
