Fat Tire CPC... Set Design Thread (1 Viewer)

But what about the 500???? No help...

I'm digging Ben's 20's, too funny, I hadn't really taken a look at his set since his initial threads, and our chips are almost identical, lol.. My bad!

IMO can't go wrong with any of the 500s all will work nicely.

Wait, he changed his mind with samples??? Shocking development

Well, not really leaning towards too many changes.

Here's the latest, and my question is I've gotten my 500 spot colors confused... Please tell me which ones I'm going with. DG Pink AND either Blurple or Retro Lavender. Thanks.

Also, the 1k is using a canary base, and the 100 is using a retro red for the inner spot. Otherwise no major changes.

Two versions of the 500 shown.

I like the bottom 500. More contrast

Yup, that's the one I think I'm going with. Polled a bunch of local regs, and that was the overwhelming vote

Late to the party, but here's my humble submission (just a few minor tweaks, actually):

I'd be concerned that the black 100 gets too easily lost in your felt.... a charcoal version retains the same colors and general look (with slightly more contrast) without the fade-away downside (plus charcoal hundos are cool). Toss-up to me on the lavender-vs-purple 500, but you get more contrast with lavender (with a charcoal 100, you could even explore blurple as the 500 base). I def prefer the twisted 1000 as a transition from 500 to 5000 spots, and mixing up the charcoal/arc yellow spots on the 5000 tones it down a touch and actually gives it a more 'orange' feel (to me, anyway).

Latest inlay artwork is fantastic.

With the numbers of my final set order in place, I created a mockup of my layout in my chip storage drawer. I think I will be ok with the partial racks, so long as the barrels are full. The side rack is my extras. I followed BG's advice and am getting 20 of each denom. Stores nicely in a rack.

This is gonna happen! I'm told this will take around 3 months, so plan on playing these at the MTTD 3!

And now the hardest part. So much of this forum is about waiting.

Thinking about deleting this and all Fat Tire CPC related threads, then hitting up a hypnotist to erase all memory of this in my brain... then come 3 months, I'll get a package in the mail, imagine my surprise!!!!!

So, does the beer remind you of my chips, or do my chips remind you of the beer?

By the way, my legal team advises me to remind folks that any actual similarities between my chips and any product manufactured by New Belgium brewery, is 100% coincidental...
