How about this with a twist on the yellow 5? 6D18?? I have a burgundy SSC table, so the yellow would pop more on the table .

Also, these , but ...

First purple is my favorite. Second purple seems like a lot of orange. I didn't mind red spots into red spots with the 4A14 since only two of the spots were red, but all of those yellows seem like a lot of red into a lot of red.

Sorry mate, not following that last bit "all those yellows etc...". Which one's are you referring to ?

Sorry for the brevity on mobile. I was referring to the top two yellow chips. Third row is good.

I see , I'm the same on mobile haha. Thanks for that.

Without all the other yellows cluttering things up - how does this look? The 4D18/313318 is only one pay bump down, so I kinda like the 6D18 from that point of view.

 

[Phantom]

4D18 for a look, but is only 1 level down from 6D18 so ...

 

[Mr. Cheese]

Of the two most recent ones I'd say the 6D18 one. I actually preferred the purple fiver being you're thinking of going with an orange .25.

Thanks mate, yes, I think it is between these two for me now, but ... . I don't mind the orange and yellow together, but the lavender does seem to do something as well ...

[dew4au]

Still bottom row for me.

I know I'm late to the party, but I was playing poker all last night and couldn't very easily contribute from my phone.

I might be in the minority, but I kind of like the original canary base for the frac, and with a more simple spot pattern. I was thinking something like this, basically he 007B with a reaplcement 25p chip.

That one checks all the boxes for me, and I know @Phantom wants to keep a canary base in the mix.

 

[Phantom]

Thanks guys, I have come to the conclusion that although I like the WSOP 5K, it really looks clunky in this set.

Thanks for the input Dan, never late, always appreciated . If, if, I can, I would like to avoid, if possible, using the same spot sizes between chips

I had also mocked up some rather simple 25p ideas as well previously, particularly with a light blue base (instead of lavender). I know you are also a fan of the yellow 5 (as am I), and along the lines of what @Adam Crowley said about accumulating a hot looking chip , what about;

If I went for the light blue, would butterscotch or light chocolate look better?

Thanks for looking all

Ok one more option. How do you feel about a 614 $1 and an 814 $5? Would remove the progression issue while still retaining most of the $1s character

Hey Ad, I have been smashed with the flu for over a week (splitting headaches, vomiting, coughing up a lung every few minutes and no sleep). How do I feel about changing to a 614 on the $1, wellllll, I would rather have the flu all over again .

In all seriousness though mate, I did consider this, and mocked up several line-ups, but it just didn't work for me. I more likely to not do the set at all if the $1 is not 814. I think it might seem to be an issue as it is for a $1 as opposed to a higher value chip. I understand when you say progression, but I don't think I am concerned so much about that. Even so, the current 5 is two levels above the $1 and more complex from that point of view.

Any particular reason for you mate as I am happy to hear your thoughts of course .

I think I am leaning this way at the moment ...

 

[Adam Crowley]

My only reason is that the $1 draws the most attention from the set and looks like the highest value chip. Definitely the nicest chip in the set.

It is a custom set for you (and your players to a very small extent). As long as your happy with it, that is all that matters.

I think the importance of mockup threads is to get a different perspective on the design and explore all the options.

FWIW I really liked the peach, white, purple set.

I'm away on holidays so it's hard for me to mock sets and post them.

Cheers Ad, any input is always welcome and the set is evolving from several suggestions. Just not the $1 . If I thought my crew, or me for that matter, were going to start throwing 5's in the pot as a regular thing, there may be a point, but the 5 will rarely hit the table, or a pot, so in effect, the $1 is the most important chip. I guess it all depends on the style of the game. I may revisit a peach, white, lavender line-up again . I just thought the 4V12 was a bit clunky.

Thanks again mate and enjoy the holidays.

 

[Adam Crowley]

yeah I don't like that spot pattern either and I think peach grey black only really works in that patter.

Here is one idea for you

[Adam Crowley]

5 then 4

 

[bentax1978]

4 then 5

 

[dew4au]

5 then 4

 

[Phantom]

Righto then chaps lets separate these two and see what others might reckon

@Phantom (A then B);
@Adam Crowley (A then B);
@bentax1978 (A then B);
@dew4au (B then A);

007 (A)

007 (B)

 

[72o]

I like em both but if I had to chose I would go with B. Not exactly sure why. I'll come back to it in a bit.

 

[Adam Crowley]

I like A better now that they are separated, more traditional colours

I don't like either of them tbh. I think your earlier mock ups were better.

Hi Bill, so you are happy with the 1 and 5, just prefer the peach 4V12 back as the 25p? It is a tough one. I am torn between the peach 4V12 and the blue/lt choc 414A. I just think the 4V12 might be a bit clunky. Will keep pondering, cheers mate.

 

[Phantom]

After a bit of a think I am down to these two. @72o got me thinking a 3V12 could work here (less busy with much the same effect), and I also think the light blue/lt choc 3916 could as well. I went away from the 414A as I wanted a different spot to the $1. It is now down to the 25p, decisions ... If I like both, either way I can't lose right??

I like top one with blue quarter chip.
Though Id like to see more quarters designs.
Perhaps a bit less busy spot imo.

Thanks Nico. There are a few other ideas through the thread with other quarters, but I think I am agreeing with the less busy being better.
