The star fields will get largely lost at actual size. The one on the left will be barely noticeable, the one on the right more noticeable, but the cluster will show as shades of grey.
good point. That's why it's so hard working on such a small art boardThe star fields will get largely lost at actual size. The one on the left will be barely noticeable, the one on the right more noticeable, but the cluster will show as shades of grey.
What's the label diameter on these chips? I just printed at 16mm diameter and the yellow looks best.
For something with that much detail, you might want to go with the glossy decal. The glossy unfortunatly will show scratch marks and might be a bit slicker than the matte decals. I agree that the type with the yellow gradient from the top looks best, but I'm not sure how it will read when it's on the actual chip. The E is a little more washed out compared to the LIPSE because of the background. If I didn't know, I might read it as E-LIPSE. Maybe pulling the E closer in and having a black E behind it with a guassian blur so it pops more?
I'm using Hubble images since they are public domain. Here are a few different star fields/nebula examples. I tried to keep the star fields mostly dark. I made the text bold to stand out more. The bottom row has a glow around the text which looks fine when large but at small size looks a bit messy to me.

All of a sudden I can't un-see this as ELIPSE/E LIPSE, not ECLIPSE. Might want to show this to a few people and see what word they read this as. Dependingh on how that goes perhaps you want to consider making the "C" portion stand out a little more.
Just my 2c, and as much as I'd like to I won't be participating in the GB - so take or leave my suggestion

You probably need to leave at least as much space between E and LIPSE as would be required for C in the same font.
For example the Tempus Sans version doesn't work because a C wouldn't fit in the current gap.
My mistake - fixed Tempus SansWork? What is that?
Tempus Sans and Candara look like carbon copies.... and my personal favorites.
I have always preferred the fuchsia/lavender version of 500 with black/grey spots for this set, while the light blue with burgundy/pink spots would make a nice 5K.I’ve never understood why the 500 and 1K have such similar colored edge spots on the WSOP set?

I would withdraw my interest with the current design trajectory. It is both somehow too plain and too busy at the same time for a chip inlay.
No offense to the the design itself or the designer - I just wouldn't be interested having that as the inlay for a poker a chip. Just not interested in a space theme set.
I suspect this design will change significantly over the next weeks and months. Denominations added, space reconsidered design clarity limitations realized. If you have suggestions then now is the time.
