Casino Royale Vintage (1 Viewer)

[Cratty]

With the upcoming sun/diamond mold with Tina .. wanted to make a set for it.. (edit... pivoting to CPC..) but also go more "vintage" looking with colors/inlay. I've been knocking around the idea of doing a casino royale set for a while to replace my metal slug chips and give a reason for me to use the topper as well.

I found this edition of Casino Royale (4th edition, 1957)... and loved the art...

So... take #1 at an inlay design (quick mockup):

Edit: Latest...

Badass. Vintage look always scores extra points.

Like the thought of matching drink color to chip (colors/mold just for testing).

Stop doing this to my wallet bro. I am currently just finishing my regular Casino Royale set.

That $25

 

[Cratty]

Kind of a fun (well somewhat drab.. going for more muted tones) potential lineup.. first real draft.

 

[Kam]

Ooo… the hundo is my fave.

 

[digirati]

Well done!

 

[mdt11]

Would.

What does Royale les Eaux mean?

Google bro. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royale-les-Eaux

Looks great!

 

[Cratty]

Hmm. Do I sub in Bond for the 100? Bond and his girls..

Bond drawn after Barry Nelson from Casino Royale Climax (1954 Television adaption)

 

[LeGold]

Take Bond from the 1967 movie!

 

[DrunkleWade]

I do like that but would prefer him posed with an upraised hand and pistol much like the Bond girl and her drink. Referencing the card art if you know what I mean.

Yeah, was trying to go more subtle with it. The more I think though, the more I'm leaning toward going girls only (possibly a Bond button).

 

[DrunkleWade]

Yeah, that’s fair. The art on your hundo is pretty cool so it’d work as a DB.

Take Bond from the 1967 movie!

Which one? And which gender?

 

[Cratty]

Shoot... I shouldn't have mocked it up on the EWING mold. My wallet doesn't want to take another CPC hit...

 

[Cratty]

CPC Order sent.

 

[Kam]

Hahaha! Epic.

I am living vicariously through Cratty’s CPC adventures just now!

Your design and wallet degeneracy is our colosseum.

Time for another set, it’s been at least a few days.

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

CPC Order sent.

Glad to see you joining the clay ranks with your designing

I know you ruled out any future hybrid adaptations for the Jolly Roger set, any chance we‘ll see this available in future group buys?
I‘m a huge James Bond fans and I am sure that once I am done with my current project (movie tourney set with plaques, selfmade wooden cases, accessories), I could imagine getting this as a small cash set.

Possibly, will have to think on it now. The jump to CPC for me is somewhat justified in exclusivity vs just materials and manufacturer history.

But I'm also a long-time Bond fan.. (my other collection being watches.. bought a couple just because of Bond), and almost guarantee I'll make another Bond or casino royale themed set down the road.

I went away on a cruise for a week and Cratty bought another set of chips. Someone freeze his credit card in an icecream container.
