Updated the colors a little more, achieving the following:
- Removed the red 5K chip (my least favorite)
- Incorporated red into the T100, freeing up purple to become a primary color for other chips
- Created T5000 in purple, but this time with the mint light green accent instead of DGAY. Love this chip!!!
- Switched the T500 orange/peach chip with the T5000 new purple chip so that conventional tournament colors are more approximated (orange 5K, purple 500, etc)
- Found that with this setup, the T25, T100, and T500 were all on the darker side, so updated the T25 with charcoal instead of dark green, and changed DGY to DGAY for more "pop." Love this chip waaaay more now.
- Updated the bounty chip color to a deeper blue. Added colored edge spots to the white edge spots.
- Updated inlays to loosely follow the pattern = BG color is main chip color, heart color is brightest accent color. The only chips where this doesn't work is the T100 (black BG color is not saturated enough) and T5000 (white heart is not saturated enough).
- Aligned artwork to a better "center point" so that denominations are centered without $ symbol. Considered removing the $ but somehow I like it as part of the look.
I think I am completely done with the design. The sample chips confirm (to my, and my girlfriend's eyes at least) that similar colors would not be confused... I would love it if
@Ray-Col could do a quick and dirty mockup of a splashed-pot or dirty stack, but I know he may be busy!
I requested a new quote from David with the updated design. If all goes well I plan to order around April 1st.
