For the daily bump, I thought it might be fun to share some of the history behind the Chicken Coop design evolution.

When Chicken Rob initially asked me to look at a CC design, there were 5 concepts for starters.

These included an 'Empress Chicken' Art Deco chicken and a 'Peanuts' inspired design that featured a Schulz-style chicken lying on top of a kennel-style coop. I called that character 'Coopy'. I liked Coopy, a lot!

Natch the concept that Rob elected to develop was the MGM-style chicken that eventually made it through to production.

Sadly, I no longer have the CC mock up with those initial concepts (following multiple device changes and Cloud storage host swaps, I lost 'em), so here are the GPI order sheets instead detailing the spot patterns and color combos:

Personally the .25, 5, and 500 are grail worthy in my opinion!

Today’s Chicken Coop design BumpFact™ is brought to you by El Pollo Loco.

When Rob originally got in touch, among the casino chips for he cited for inspiration were the MGM Grand:

Obv this was the concept of the original 5 that we chose to develop. On the rough mockup, I initially did MGM Chicken’s wings using Adobe Illustrator’s ‘Polar Grid’ tool. They were very rounded and looked even crazier than the end result chicken. Too crazy to live, basically. But a solid base for the design.

I was unsure how to approach the chicken wings and dial down the madness…

…but at one point I revisited some MGM Grand chip pics and noticed something interesting: the lion’s mane, if rotated, looked quite a lot like wings!!

So I basically retained the chicken head and created modified vector wings based off the MGM lion’s mane.

Distilled into an equation, for math fans:
