I would like to get my first full Custom Chips. Not handled 43mm Chips yet, but I will purchase a sample. Also ceramics are more effordable for me. I live in Germany and a Custom ASM Set would be out of my budget.
So, the basic idea of the design is to gather some of the vacations in the last years I enjoyed most.
To get a quick mockup i used PAINT. But for the real mockup I think I will use GIMP. Anyone with experiences in GIMP? I have zero experiences with graphic programms. But this should be the opportunity to learn some basic skills.
Design:
- I will not use the pictures next to Chips, but would like to use them as a template.
- The chip color and edgespot colors should be somehow find again in the graphic. ,
- I will not use a $ or € sign. The Kyoto Chip will be without a denomination. Any Idea what to write instead?
- I like the design of edges of the Tiki Kings. I also would like to write the denomination on the edges. But I dont know yet.
Breakdown:
We normaly play microstakes, so that the "5" and "20" can be used as 5c and 20c. While it must feel strange to most Americans to use a 20c Chip for us in Europe its the norm. As it should be a poker-set for a life-time, the breakdown should give me a lot of flexibility. Also to move up in higher Stakes. I know more chips is better, but ... budget.
So the breakdown would be as follows.
- 150x 1
- 150x 5
- 150x 20
- 50x non denomonation
(Breakdown for a single table cash game)
Any feedback is welcome. Thank you!
