Here's an alternate translite I had made for a Gottlieb, Monte Carlo that I recently picked up. I went for a James Bond gambling theme and very happy how it turned out. It kind of updates and modernizes an older game IMO.

Last picture shows the original POS translite. Thanks for looking.

Man this thread is James Boring.

I really like that idea. The idea that you are playing as "Bond, James Bond" in a casino makes that machine much more exciting to me. I think I might continue to work on this mock up. I know this doesn't look like much, but it's actually five layers.

I like it. where did you go to get a translite to be printed. I have a monte carlo and hate that translite.

Thanks! Yeah, I like that too and there is a lot of ways to go here. My friend Silk that collaborated with me on this thought we should change the title to Casino Royale but I wanted to stay a little bit true to the game. Besides, the cabinet and drop targets all say Monte Carlo or show MC.
I've attached a second version that we also did and I really like it as well.

Check with your local sign shops. Also, it was many years ago but I had a local Kinkos print a translite for me.

Can't decide if I want to keep it as Monte Carlo or just go full on Casino Royal. Here is a "007" logo I came up with form Monte Carlo.

I like this image too. I've considered swapping out the car for this, but that just seems like then it's a total Danial Craig theme.

I know, that's one of the dilemmas I struggled with. But I like the direction you're going and you've found some of the same artwork that I did. Please continue to follow up. I'd love to see it.

Here's a fun one I did just screwing around.

I'll probably never do anything with it. I like the design process, but then I lose interest.

I like the progress that it’s going. What would you guys charge to send me a file of one that I like?

Are either of the translites in post 1 or 5 available anywhere? Looking for an alternative and one of those could be a cool option to have.
