Sitting Out
Hi folks,
Happy new year, btw, and good riddance to 2020! Hope you all have a better 2021.
So I decided that new chips and cards for our home poker game should be my next lockdown project, and I've after getting quite a few ceramic and other samples I've ended up here and looking at the CPC website, and resigned to spending WAY more than I'd originally planned. But I think it'll be worth it, so I'm working on possible designs for CPC…
I'd appreciate any feedback on the attached possible looks (these are still a bit sketchy, but there will be four chip values: 25, 100, 500, 1000). One thing I'm not sure about is the merits of a white background for the insert vs. black background - I feel like that's the kind of thing that might be quite hard to judge just from a screen/web interface visual, but someone with experience of these chips could maybe speak to. Also I'm thinking of using colours on the chip values, but I'm not sure how easy it will be to match the chip colours, especially if Im using dayglo chip colours. But close is probably good enough.
ps. I should mention that I'm not sure I'll go with the hourglass mould - may go with A-crest instead, but I figure I need the biggest insert area possible, which rules out some options such as the H-mould which would otherwise look quite appealing
