First set of customs (1 Viewer)

[FarmPoker85]

Tinkering around with the idea of a set of CPC customs and wanted to see what the PCF world thought of these mockups. Probably go for a cash/tournament combo set as cash game stakes probably won't ever require over a $5 and tournament chips will start at 25.

Chip denoms would be $1, 5, 25, 100, 500, 1k, and 5k. Still debating a color for quarters, thinking about a solid either pink or a medium blue. I’m pretty well set on the A mold because if I ever decide to get 10k and higher I will go with the 43mm and I want matching molds and I’m not crazy about the look of scrolls. Let me know what you think and if there’s room for improvement!

No frac?

I prefer yellow instead of white. Arc yellow or canary would work well

Didn’t put one in the mockup set but thinking about a solid. Pink, imperial blue, dg peacock?

I had a yellow chip designed but I was afraid the edge spots I decided on would have caused dirty stack issues with the blurples on one side and dark green and orange on the other

I think a bright blue would be better as your $1, then you xan make the frac Grey. I myself am not a fan of pink frac when using a red $5.

Just some thoughts, keep in mind this is your set and what ever I say, stick with that you like and want!

Pink frac is nice we can add a white spot and still be at level 1 chip
Dollar I used light blue instead of gray and I changed the spot to black but there are a lot of nice dark spot colors for this chip. I just wanted to go away from blurple to free it for next chip.
5 - changed spot from DG Peacock to Blurple as we are using DG Peacock in the 100$ chip and dont want to use the same spot color if we don't have to.
25 - If you look at a sample set there is not whole lot of difference from DG Arc Yellow and Canary but I think there a little more difference between DG Arc vs DG Saturn than Canary vs DG Saturn. As I set DG Saturn in next chip I used Arc here
100 - Just changed the yellow
500 - Love it
1000 - I like the light green/lavander combo more than lavander/light blue
5000 - That gray spot was not making it pop for me as the highest value chip I personally would look at other spot patterns.

Also I would keep in mind that the frac can also be used as a 25k chip in tournaments,

Never really thought about using light green with lavender, thought it would clash but I like it. And I agree the light blue makes the 5k pop a lot more than with the gray spot. Just got my color samples today and the orange looks a lot brighter in person than on the designer. Thanks for the ideas!

If you don’t think your cash game would ever need over a $5 are you considering a 5¢ and 25¢?

 

[FarmPoker85]

Definitely planning on it. Thinking solid colors for the fracs. DG Peacock for 5c and DG pink or DG saturn for 25c.

 

[chipinla]

What type of budget are you looking at?Lots of denoms split between cash/tourney means lots of chips.

 

[FarmPoker85]

It’s going to be a process of building the set. I’ll start with the cash set fracs through $5 as I already have a couple sets of China clays that work for tourneys. Then add the higher denom’s later when I have the extra funds to do so
