Looking for a little design help. Animal silhouette chips.

Here's a revised mockup, with some tentative ideas of animals.



The thing about the fish and the duck is that they're both identifiable as 2 color silhouttes, so did some thinking about animals with simple, interesting body forms and iconic colors. I think an overhead view of a bee with the nice striped tail-end (form and colors) and a jumping frog from either a top or side view (mainly form) would be identifiable and have some character.

I'm still not happy with the buffalo, but I'm not sure what kind of mammal would fit this kind of thinking. I think the tiger suggestion may be too complicated to convey, and, given how all these other animals are turning out to be tiny little buggers, a little unbalancing (which is another reason I'm getting unsatisfied with the bison).

Well, you have a fish, insect, amphibian, and a bird (assuming you toss the buffalo), so you definately need the 100 to be a mammal, and something small. I'm thinking squirrel, bat, monkey, lemur, dog, mouse, or chipmunk.

Shouldn't the duck be on the $2 chip? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Maybe you could do them in a style similar to these:

I really like the bare outline drawings. I couldn't do the artwork myself, but maybe you can or could have them done.

peace.

heheh... "I am a bee"... classic.

I really like your theme idea and mockups. One suggestion I would make is to make the $1 blue and the $100 that dark purple color, i.e. switched. I would also darken the purple up some. I noticed you reassigned your colors on the 5 and 25 to coincide with "vegas colors" and the $1 are traditionaly white or blue with $100 traditionaly black.

The demoninations might be very cool looking in the edge color instead of white, dunno.

edit: oh yeah... if you didn't want a denom on the face of the chip screwing with your artwork you can print on the edge of chipco chips.

The bison is my favorite chip of the group so far! move the 100 over to the left a bit and you have a winner IMHO.

Also, any thoughts on a somewhat more detailed background? The solid color makes it seem a little too simple to me. That may be what you're going for.
