Hotstamped frac?

Hotstamped frac?

Yessir.

 

[stocky]

Yessir.

Mmmmmmmm

 

[courage]

OK, our esteemed opie, H|Q has informed me of a few requirements: NO frac, and the $5 must include lavender (ode to Tropicana). The $1 seems locked in as does the $5. I think I've talked him into a hundo but we will start a petition. A $25 instead of a $20 is also an option so both are shown here. I also tried using a blue-family carryover spot on all denoms ala Samurai Palace.

300 - $1
800 - $5
200 - $20
100 - $100

1400 chips = 1 sarge drawer

 

[H|Q]

Like most of the responses I really liked the $1 color combo. But I remembered the Argosy $1 chip, and fell for that one. So now I ask you. How does the charcoal work as a $20?

 

[courage]

The charcoal looks good as a $20. Here's an ode to Argosy, Trop, and another try. Sub dg firetiger for dg peach on hundo.

And carrying the blue across denoms:

This is good but I'd swap the green on the $20 to brown. Personal preference.

 

[BGinGA]

Lock up the new argosy $1, trop $5, and charcoal $20. Winners, all. /thread ?

I think charcoal works very well as a $20.

 

[H|Q]

I may have stolen that idea from that very chip.

Just saw this thread. Love the inlay and the designs so far. Headed to work and cannot give a long opinion but would consider carefully how easy the chips are to tell apart. I think Butler commented earlier, but it is an issue with my quarter pie tourney set. We have several color blind players that really struggle.

And you MUST get at $100 chip.

Really awesome set so far. Beyond the technical details, it's the theme that works.

That's OK, I didn't exactly formulate the idea anyway.

tend to agree.

 

[ChaosRock]

I absolutely LOVE where the set is going Harley... Pretty f'ing sweet...

 

[H|Q]

tend to agree.

Close the thread! BW asked why i wasn't having a hundo made...

 

[jbutler]

Close the thread! BW asked why i wasn't having a hundo made...

"hey, honey, i'm getting the chips made for that inlay you made me a decade ago."

"oh yeah? the one where you had me do 67 different denominations?"

"yeah, i'm going to make 3 of them."

"..."

 

[H|Q]

Here are the some of the 67 inlays I already had. I suspect they will all need to be tweaked. But I think I've landed!

 

[courage]

I like this, except you know, blue on all denoms except the $20. Queue the failboat.

tend to agree.

Thanks for the info, do you have a pic of your pies? I'm still trying to unsee the last pic you showed me.

Only matters if you look at them as a set. Blue has a hard time working with yellow with these pies. Gorgeous $20 chip is gorgeous!

i'm gonna give you a little piece of advice you shouldn't have needed: if a urologist pulls out his cell phone and says, "hey, wanna see a picture?" the answer is always to cover your eyes immediately.

but here are Leonard's (awesome) quarter pies:

I think I fixed it. And yet, I suspect we're not finished.

 

[H|Q]

More sickness. These are still the old inlays.

 

[jbutler]

personally, i'm almost always in favor of a $25 over a $20 and i think those look fantastic.

seeing @Leonard 's Lucky Dog green confirms that they can play nicely.

Just FYI, he called me up, scooped my ideas, then posted. And he's driving down this evening so I can clean his Par-a-dice mega set. I'm such a fish.

Whatever, you know I put out.

 

[H|Q]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand we're done here. At least as far as the base/spot colors go. What do you think?
