Sitting Out
Hey all, new to the forum, but within days of joining I was convinced by what I've seen on here that I need to try my hand it at. This is meant to be a set for both cash and tourney. The theme is the Greek pantheon, cause well, I'm Greek
My game is still quite new, only started in late 2019, and we either play tourneys or .25/.50 cash games up to a $50 buy-in, with a definite focus on tourneys.
You'll notice that the colors aren't standard. I did attempt to keep the standards in practice (at least where it made sense), but I also wanted the set to reflect some kind of progression of the gods through the denominations and maintain the color associations of each god. I could likely swap a few of them around while accomplishing this, and am certainly open to suggestions, but this is what the first draft is looking like so far.
A couple more notes: The reload chip is currently supposed to be the standard 39mm alongside the rest of the chips, though I'm debating bumping it up to 43mm. The blind buttons are going to be "dealer size" 49mm, and the dealer button is going to be 60mm.
I'm far from an artist/designer, and this is my first time ever attempting anything like this. I chose to rough it out with Inkscape for the time being, though I may try to grab AI for a little to convert to .ai files and recolor in CMYK, after some conversation with Kristil from BR Pro Poker.
That being said, I'd like to shout out @IceViking and @nuclearmonkey, your designs gave me a lot of inspiration, and I learned a lot from your threads!
Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on this set!
