Someone please talk me out of doing a tribute CPC set (1 Viewer)

I wouldn't do any shaped inlays on CPC-Scrown, as I believe they'll come out looking too small. This will save a lot of money too. I think 1in round is the sweet spot, but whichever you choose, make them the same across the denoms or the different inlay factor will really feel off when using them in person. Also, I don't think the tributes will mind what color the denom is. Make them all red aka better (can swap the blue on the frac to the casino name for balance).

I'd prefer Retro Red (more of a pink hue) on the $5 versus Mandarin Red (more of an orange hue), as it is both a better color and has a hue more representative of the base Bourbon St $5 chip (Radiant Red).

Is this you choosing the colors for the $1?:

Make the two red 14 spots the same color and it should bring down the level/cost of the chip.
I am actually colorblind. Thanks for mocking my condition. Wow, rowbear. Wow.

But yes, I could have read it.

To be clear, money is no object when it comes to Beavis chips.

The $1, $5, & $100 are excellent. Not a fan of orange and pink for the half dollar.
 
A lot of reds and pinks on the three lowest denoms. And why not make the frac a quarter so we can use the set in our .25/.25 circus games?
 
I see now that the frac is a tribute to this chip:

I also realize that there are no CPC colors that exactly match these colors. I think your earlier try was better, with the arc yellow base and retro lavender. Or maybe even just lavender, which is darker and provides a better contrast, like the original Rainbow chip.

Yep, definitely comes closer with lavender. Here are all the lavenders and purples for comparison.

Ill try some lavenders a little later. DG Peach is lighter than the design tool makes it look.
 
Man... I love the $5, $25 and $100! I think those are well done. The others are decent too, but I'm just not a fan of the original chips they represent.
