DayGlo Tiger or DayGlo Peach for the middle edge spots? (1 Viewer)

[Steamtrain]

Panic time on my CPC order.
Probably me just being neurotic but clay colors need to finalized today(Sunday)

I took this pic just now
My old day glo peach samples and old day glo tiger vs new day glo tiger from Webster farm

TLDR
Both win in the end

Why not? I think it could be great.

So I need to get my middle edge spot color as good as possible, my set relies on it

You're pretty vague with your question. Judging from post #3 you're not using them as base colors so are you asking if DG Tiger would be better instead of DG Peach

Edit: you worried about the spots on the hundo?

Sorry for the vague posts.
Yes, I'm wondering if Dayglo Tiger would be better than Dayglo Peach the middle edge spots.

Yes, DG Peach and DG arc yellow are very similar.

Try mocking it with arc yellow as the middle spot, and exchange peach with tiger. It will be more distinct.

That makes a better chip but would break the pattern of the set.

I see. Mock up your alternative: change out all peach for tiger, and let us see what it will look like.

I’ve got a color sample set from a couple months ago. I think peach is going to look better on most chips. However, I think 3 of the other spots could be improved:

100- canary instead of arc yellow as arc yellow too close to peach
500- retro lavender instead of dg pink, pink looks poor next to any orange
5000- bright white instead of white

I second the canary for arc yellow swap.

I prefer the peach.

Could you take a pic with the 3 edge spot colours stacked together (simulatingthe edgespot) with the base colours sample chip beside it? Then it’d give a better sense of the real version of the final.

Based on the mock ups I like the peach better.

I think Tiger does look better on maroon chip though

David at CPC says Tiger.

I used the Mike's Casino chip for the DG Tiger.

DG Peach

My 2c. The DG tiger is a darkish color. As such it really pops on highly saturated colors like the Browns, burgundy and blurple. It is also stellar on light shades and offers a good contrast.
DG peach however is what I call a fairly even tone. It works well with everything. I'd vote DG peach but you really can't go wrong with either color. Either example looks FAWESOME. Nicely done.

 

[Sprouty]

I still like the look of the peach.

 

[Steamtrain]

Ruin continuity and alternate the Peach and Tiger?

 

[Steamtrain]

 

[Sprouty]

I like the continuity but keep in mind it's your set so it should be largely based on what you want.

 

[Steamtrain]

It will be the alternating set.

I did it so each chip gets its best(for me) matching middle edge spot.
We will have to see it as a set, to see if it combines for a good set.

If it was a poll, my vote would be to keep the peach. Your hundred alone with peach makes me want to buy a sample set.
