Basic Poker Custom Design and Process Question (13 Viewers)

[VandeDad]

I have tried, but cannot figure out how to do some of the following tasks:
1. Get feedback on chip design
I used CPC design tool, but want Tinas (I will attempt here). I am thinking these chips. On the sticker I want “VandeDad Card Room” and “Shorewood, IL” with the script V in the background (like the Bellagio chip. Chips would be 25c/1/5/25/100/500/1k/5k/10k and be labeled with their currency. I would like enough for Cash (25c/25c) as well as a tournament set 8/8/4/7 for 10k. Not sure about that notation. I would not mind suggestions for the middle graphic as I will have “Poker Room” across the top

2. Get help for my son to instruct him on creating the design file for @justincarothers prior to ordering. I believe these to be Adobe Illustrator files
3. Same for the “stickers” for creating the sticker design in AI (or similar)
4. I am thinking the final step is to DM Justin

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/critique/help

Just noticed I left off the $500 Lavender chip

I believe u are requesting a designer for help?
If so there a few on here that can help but may be a queue as they are pretty busy.
If u wish to do the design ur self you will need 2 ai (adobe illustrator) files and 1 png file.
ai: 1 for the chip layout and edge spots, 1 for the labels.
png: chips preview of final product (match labels to chip layouts).

Hope this helps and good luck!

When designing chips (base colors and spot patterns/colors), add an inlay (temp, black, or white) which most closely mimics your final artwork -- it will dramatically affect how your choices will actually appear. No inlay shows way too much base color, which is only good if designing hot-stamped chips.

Also consider using the Paulson chip tool instead, as it has a much larger selection of colors and spot patterns.

Also, ditch the 10000 chip (get a 25k instead if you really think it's needed), and add a $20, essentially breaking your set into two sets:
Cash: 25c, $1, $5, $20
Tourney: 25, 100, 500, 1000, 5000, (25000 optional)

What color is generally used for the $20

What color is generally used for the $20

Yellow is a common $20 color (required by several jurisdictions), but black is often used in CA.

My preference (fwiw):
25c blue
$1 white
$5 red
$20 yellow
25 green
100 black
500 purple
1000 orange
5000 gray
25000 blue
