Working on my first CPC set. (3 Viewers)

Go to a yellow 20 - a legit $20 color along with your blueish 1 and reddish 5.

I went 1 spot on $1 because I think it's cool but you probably don't. 25c and $5 the same.

Darker AV chip slots in on either side with no problems that I see.
 
Frankly I like this spot progression better. I think 4 big spots can look busy as much as I like 4 of something on a 25c chip.

Sad the Grey with some pink/purple is out. I thought that was a good one.

I dig the black and butterscotch edgespots on the yellow chip that you did, and I did like the gray quite a bit, but it's soooo much darker in real life - the computer screen really pops the color more than real life. That black chip just pops next to the others - and there usually only ends up being 4-6 in the table at the end of the night. I started with 3 edgespots, but I've kinda settled into the 4... kinda gives me a New Mexico feeling? I'm still suprised that I have 2 different edgespot types among the set.
I feel like my wife must feel when asked where she wants to go for dinner. :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
So... I keep coming back to these 2. But, I'm sure I'll change my feeble mind 236 more times before they get ordered. I'm thinking about another Tina buy just to see a better approximation of them.
You've gotten a ton of opinions on this set. Your inlay is SO nice. It's up to you to put them on the chips that you choose.
IF you do a set on "tinas" I still love what you did with colors/edge spots in this other thread (post #6):

I think the greek mold looks great with your design but from what I've been reading, the greek mold chips can be somewhat slippery so use your discretion. One good thing about ceramics is you can use any colors you want and compose any spot pattern you like. I think your version of the 3v spots in that thread are really cool. Don't know if you've considered it, but these may also look good on the ceramic "scrown" version as well.
Of course these would be killer on a clay chip too, but at a higher cost and you're somewhat limited to color choices and spots (there are lots of choices for spots available on CPC).
Whatever you do with these, please post pics of the completed chips when you get them. Great job!

Thanks - I open to any of the Tina molds, was leaning toward the web design. I'm also intrigued by the 43mm chips. I may go that route. I still like the OG tina designs - the colors are unique and that's what drove me to try something like that. Then I just figured I want a nice clay set. I always regretted not getting custom Paulson's 15 years ago. So, that's what the design/colors evolved into. CPC colors and design tool. But, it looks like it might be close to a year before I could get those, so I'll order a Tina set in the original colors AND a set in the current configuration to hold me over until CPC is back up and running.

From that thread:
I think the colors are great. That's a real winner. You might as well add $100 for some more playability since you already had the black AND make a royalty deal for those chips. Winner winner.

Some combination of these colors is my favorite of your mockups....

Use the gray chip as a $100, or use it as the 25¢ chip and the green chip as the 50¢ chip.... etc....

To me these are easy to tell apart, and have a great amount of contrast.

A gray hundy. Even snuck some browns in there to feed my addiction. I think it still works for the set. Really pops next to the black $20 and $5

Now remember Mr. Ross, I'm still a brown-a-holic :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: I got rid of the brown chip, so I must retain one butterscotch/brown chip. Currently, the butterscotch is the 50c/AV, but am still waffling. It makes sense to have it be the AV chip vs a 50c. For now, I haven't repeated any colors, and I really think these should pop enough on my table and next to each other. I'm going to order a Tina set next month from Justin. Curious to see how the colors will replicate. And, while browsing through the 4765 renditions of the chips, I kinda went back to the retro green edge spots on the green - I just can't talk myself into light green and pink together. Too much easter egg for me? Anyway, there's still a few weeks before the next group Tina buy. Web or Greek mold ?

This is a pretty solid lineup as well.. Your AV chip has the least amount of contrast and "pop" so that is the only one that I'd tweak a bit. The smaller edge spot inside of the dark brown edge spot has glorious opportunity to be a bolder color.
 
Verde, I would love to see a red $5 dollar chip. I think switching up the spot patterns especially for the fracs would be cool. At the end of the day bro, go with what you like. Who cares about what everyone else thinks. Its your money and your chips. I do really like the 20
 
Same spot pattern (with colour variations) better for tournament.

I know this is conventional using solids or consistent spots on tourney chips.

But TBH I can’t see why spot patterns shouldn’t vary in tournament sets.

The same aesthetic appeal and utility reasons as apply to cash can also work for tourneys.

My Jack tournament set (mostly Detroits) has variable spots and l think it is pretty splendid.

Of course they can. Varying spot patterns work equally well in cash and tournament sets.

Same spot patterns work fine for tournaments, but not always as good for cash. Exceptions vary. Inlay art could be a larger factor.
 
Ordered a test set from Tina (Justin/BrokenArrow) We'll see how the colors come out. Those muted clay CPC colors are hard to replicate.
Juggled the colors of the chips. The 50c and the $1 are what see the most play. When ever CPC is back up running the 50c will be replaced with an AV.
Also, may take the lavender out of the green chip and go back with white. Not enough brown... you guys are rubbing off on me :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

"Verde? Yeah, I was a fan of his early work."

Personally, I think you should vary the inserts a bit, but these chip palette are far superior to this latest version. What happened to the mute, and F U to red?

Well, the red is a terracotta :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: and it just grew on me. What do you mean about varying the inserts? Curious. In theory, the labels draw from the main color of the chip so when they are splashed they separate themselves easier.
 
You have only two edge patterns, while I like your older color palettes you should mix it up more. They really help out with color blindness
 
Changed the label a bit from the courthouse to a more desert cow skull etc. Will probably try and simplify it some more.
Only 247 changes to come before we can order again. :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
