Working on picking a Frac for the Badlands Casino set. I’ve got pics of light pink and bright pink so far…. Have bought a lot of others that haven’t arrived yet.
Thoughts on these combos so far?

Vegas color set. Yellow or standard pink (not hot pink) solids, in that order. If you want to get frisky, blaze or arc yellow, although they’re way more rare/expensive (rightfully so) and the former two are preferable.

I don’t think it’s actually that close or tough of a debate with Badlands’ colors already present in the set. Yeller.

I wouldn’t overthink this one.

Alright, in my honest opinion, I think you should NOT use fracs with this set...
The Badlands Casino set is perfect the way it is and I think if you use it, you need to be starting your denominations at $1.
Save the fracs for your other chip sets, people that use fracs don't deserve to be using this set of chips (even though I use fracs and I bought a sample set).
The point is, you should be playing at least $1/$1 to be able to put these beauties in play.

Again this is just my opinion. And my opinion probably doesn't go that far being a member less than 2 months... but I do have a doctorate degree.

Well, that’s one theory…. I probably won’t listen, but I respect it.
 
If you are absolutely sold on fracs for this set, which I think downgrade the set (based on what I've seen so far).
Here's my opinion:
1. The lighter pink base is better than the bright pink, but a color that's not in the spots or other bases might look better (but not brown, even though it does kind of match the $100 spots). I think it's good to put them in front of the sets and make sure the whole set is pictured unlike the bright pink.
2. For the spots, I'm a bit torn because it seems like they all have 3 colors for each spot (assuming the $5 and the $25 have the same color twice with one different and the $25s third color is the same as the base). So the tri color on the VLV set might not be too complex except for what I put for #4.
3. As for the inlay shape, the $1 already has a basic circle, followed by different shapes for the higher denominations. This is also why I'm against the fracs because you will have another basic circle, Unless there is a different shape that can go before a basic circle.
4. Writing on the inlay for the Badlands Casino is curved and in black text, with a white background, which I think is important to try to make uniform for aesthetics. Also the denomination is in a red text, which ideally you would want to be the same as well.

It is likely impossible for all these conditions to be met with previous chips which are no longer made the same anymore, which is why in my opinion, I do not think you should use fracs for this set.

As a side bar, this is why I think hot rods and mixed hot stamp sets work because at least the font is the same color and they don't really have to match inlays etc, but when done right inlays can be beautiful like this Badlands Casino set.
 
Get another rack of 1s and play $1/$2.
I don‘t know how you‘ll reach over 20k in
cash with a frac game…?
Nice set!!
