Fracs and fivers sorted, but ideas for a £1 and (43mm) £20 / £25 needed, please!

Has anyone done any Anime or Waifu sets? Is like to see what's out there with the ultimate goal of eventually making a set.
 
Very nice combo!
A red or peach frac would make this a killer set for me.
 
Hmmmm, frac not working as it's too dark. Any suggestions welcome...

personally thinking a green $1 would work nicely

Reason for Jeep's old tag is because I was also floating a purple $5 lineup, having loved seeing @chicubs1988 Harold's set w/ an arc (or orange) frac and a purple $5 playing together on the felt. I also love green chips in general and slotting them in was also part of that plan. Settled on this if it helps w/ anything, although I'll be axing a green rack and adding a purple one most likely:

Very nice indeed. I'm a big fan of non-traditional colours, so have had a purple fiver before; love the idea of a green £1, too. Will have a think about some other options — cheers for the inspiration.
 
Not sure why people think that a dirty stack is an issue with either of those sets. Maybe someone can enlighten me?
I'm not sure if anyone's got barrels of both chips where they could illustrate?

I understand conceptually, but with those color schemes don't see it... the green and blue chips have similar spots of similar colors but the base is so different. You would notice a single chip of either of those in a stack of the other i would think, and if you mixed them shamelessly then i would think you could see that too, but maybe i'm wrong on that...

It's more to do with the blue and purple chips, I think.

I don't see that... the edge spots seem to be distinctive. A dirty stack would stand out IMO, and maybe a single chip or 2 could be mixed in, but even then i think it would be noticeable. I may have to look and see if i have chips that sorta match and play, but i don't think i do.
 
White frac, blue 1, purple 5, green 20? I like the blue 1, and think the design for the white one is nice but more simple, which would suit a frac I'd think.
 
A couple yellow options for the frac with color combos i like for the 1/5/20 as well. For the blue chip it's basically the same only with the blue and white swapped so blue is the main. I'm old school, 5's are red.... :) I like purple for a non-$25 denom. Again, i go green for 25, but 20 is up for grabs (in my mind). Purple makes it easy to distinguish and i associate with a higher value chip for some reason. If anyone has trouble finding dirty stacks, you need Braille on your chips...

I would stay away from most purple $25 if you are using blue $1 and red $5.

If you use a yellow $5 then purple $25 would be fine (standard Cali progression).

Its a 20 not 25, so not a standard progression except for cash sets i've seen. $5 = Red and $25 = Green and $100 = Black. Those are the three rules i would never violate if i'm building a set... but to each their own.

A white or yellow $20 would work a lot better in a blue-red-xxx-black line-up. Def not purple.

No black in this progression. If you said that a black $100 was going to be added... the frac is a little too nice but i like it... might swap it for $1 and make white 1 and blue frac...

I really would consider a yellow frac in this lineup instead of white.
Hows this work for you? Makes the frac simpler. Also, i usually go purple for 500 but if we are capped at 100 (and not just 20) then i like the purple and black for 100. I also think that the chips set above is nicer if the white and blue are switched with $1 white chips and frac blue (as is or plain).
