Looking for design help (with reward!) (1 Viewer)

[Rbonus012]

Hello PCF! Looking for some help for my next set. Here is where im at. Love the frac and $25. Everything else im open to ideas. mostly the $5.

If i end up going with you chip design in the end ill gift you a sample

Too many very dark chips

 

[Bill_Man618]

Yeah I’d go lighter on the green and maybe the blue. I like the $5 though.

 

[VolkovaTheThird]

Is there, like, a theme...?

[Eloe2000]

Maybe take a look at Imperial Blue based $1 and Green based $25 then? I could mock that up.

the green base is too dark IMO and the browns dont contrast enough against the charcoal base for my own preference. Without knowing the theme or the inlay one isnt able to provide "complete" feedback as an inlay can make or break a chip.

The is a winner. looking forward to seeing the final result.

Side note. Its safe to assume you are only mocking these up on the A mold and will use a diferent mold for the actual set

Man with that Key frac I was hoping maybe you were going for blanks Ryan and doing a Stamped set for the "Castaways"

If It is another inlaid set please consider this "custom" design I came up with a while back, I did some "slight" modifications for you Bro!

It is obviously a rough draft... you can add "Strip Club & Exotic Animal Cabaret!"

If you would like...

I would like a little more contrast on the two halves on the frac, otherwise frac - $5 is great... I get the $25 is beautiful by itself but too close to the $1 and the $100 for me. Keep us legally color blind folks in mind, that looks like it could have some dirty stack issues brother!

We just use A mold for the mock up. Will be going in CSQ mold.

Any hints on what the theme of the set is? Cash set, right?

Determining how much detail I want to disclose. Obviously I know that it is import to know when designing. I also want this to be a surprise when it comes in from CPC tho.


It’s a cash set.

Plus you still wouldn’t be repeating any base colors from your cash set.

John brought up a good point that it might look good to have a 412 $1 chip over the 212.

If someone is at there computer and can put that into CPC I would appreciate it to see what it would look like. I just shut mine off lol.

If I am spoiling here with the Castaways "Stamped" set (freaking love the Idea BTW if you haven't thought about that) please and I do mean Please DO NOT let them stamp them! Buy blanks and have the stamps professionally done after the fact. Such a shame on the flat out BAD quality of stamps they produce on otherwise beautiful chips!

Would never get them stamped at CPC. Too much $$$ for a product that is very disappointing unfortunately.

Ohh I could get on board with 412.

Literally boarding my flight right now. I won’t be able to do the CPC tool. But I can do the photo mock-up later on that one as wel.

Quick once through loosely using some of the ideas you mentioned

Why does arc yellow have to look so good lol. Big fan of that frac. That whole lineup has something to take from it. Will definitely need to play around more in the tool in the morning.

Would be an amazing stamped frac. The butterscotch gives it the calm earthy tone you like and the arc keeps it exciting. Both somewhat in the same “family” of colors so it would play well as a pie frac without feeling messy. Almost like a solid, but way cooler.

I’d say nail the 5 first though and build from there.

This is my problem. Haven’t nailed the $5 and and trying to build into it. Still not there yet.

WTF!! I was about to give you the secret sauce....but it only works on the "A"lpha mold. Sucks to be you!!

The $5s easy dude. Don't try to reinvent the wheel. Just use the AWESOME wheel that already exists.

DG Peach, Retro Lav, LT Blue, and DG Green are sexy on charcoal. That $100 is sweet.

Not quite right, I need to look at my samples… I really don’t like green chips….

Binions 50c dovetail
Looks like cache creek $1
Cool ideas imported there

 

[Eriks]

Killing time on the bus. Not at happy with all of em but I figured I’d throw them out there. The 5 and 25 don’t really work but I can’t get there
