Nothing like spite to inspire a chipset

@RudysNYC you're alright! Even if you did pick a white dollar.

Man, you guys are crazy/awesome. I'm going to have to pull my name out of the hat for this GB since I'm at my capacity. Anyone who has been in touch and confirmed their projects is good to go but I can't in good faith take any more projects on and be able to hit the deadline for everyone on this.

There are tons of designers tagged in this thread who should be able to help out, so definitely get in touch with them.

I'm open to other projects of course, but those won't be able to start until designs for this GB are wrapped.

Lol I guess I'm an idiot for having half a message typed up as a draft for a week. I didn't have a totally finished idea hashed out so I might need someone with some time and creativity.

Who wants a paying customer? Anyone? Anyone?

Apart from an inlay shape change on the Keno Queen £5, we are there!

Apart from a few cosmetic changes, I tried to stay pretty true to the original New China Club chips. And, as usual, @timinater absolutely nailed the brief. Huge thanks to @gopherblue, too!

Alright....I’ve been following this thread with every update - just barely holding out. Let me sample these suckers to see if I need to put in an order.

PM coming...

100 extra each denom seems reasonable.

Agreed. You're doing 3000 right?

 

[GetUrShineBox]

This is the final version I sent @timinater. I'm posting publicly here, as my personal final draft, both to apologize to Tim for being a PITA and to keep me accountable... I can't send him *another* updated file. That would be borderline criminal.

Like before, big change is LV->NYC and the $25 will have 3V12 edge spots. I thought long and hard on whether to do a $20 or $25, and ultimately settled on sticking with a $25. I always want my buddies to think I run a knockoff casino since Giuliani killed any f***in chance of a real one in the city, and because neither my friends nor I have ever seen a $20 in the wild in AC I decided to stick with my guns. (That being said, should I have the opportunity to expand this set in the future and/or my friends and I expand our bankrolls to go 10/20, $20s are first on the list)

Nice! The $5 is my favorite of the group!

I got intoxicated last night and wound up designing myself a tournament set. I barely play tournaments, but I f'n love chips (especially at a quarter a pop).

Is there another sample set floating around? If I'm going to order ~1100 chips I'd like to at least say I made an informed decision

I have a barrel I should either send off or send back.

 

[upNdown]

Or I'll scrap this and build a new set around the 1000. I love how it turned out and it makes me want to build a set around it with the theme of retro surfboards/surf shack.

Is that happening?

 

[HeWhoWouldPun]

Is that happening?

It hasn't yet. I started looking at color schemes/patterns but that's as far as I got; I haven't mocked up anything.

I know, I know....excuses, excuses. I returned to "real-life" at the end of June and my covid-induced-free-time is now gone.

This made my day. Lol

Did some touch-up work on my drunken efforts. Obviously I gotta wait and see until I get the samples, but pretty safe to say you can up my order to 1150 @SeanGecko.

Curious why there's a sole edgespot on the 1k chip.

Love the inlay design.

That green is going to pop! Love that base color of green.

My only 'critique' is the yellow chip. The edge progression is a bit different compared to the chips beside it.

Can't really explain beyond this lol

I kinda like it though. Obviously weird and unconventional, but I don't really mind it. Would consider making it have three of the same edgespot, but not inclined to do so just yet

I like it. I'm with the others with the 1k. I'd like the sole edge spot for a frac or $1 but not on a 1k. I would at least add one more to the other side. Also maybe consider changing the spot design on either the 100 or 500 so they are not the same. Just my two cents.

I think you guys are probably right. Fixed it. And also since I can't help but read all of your posts in Frank Vincent's voice, I had to mock up a lil' something for shites and gigs. You know, since Billy Batts basically shoved all-in against pocket psychoses? Whattya gonna do.

Got you buddy. Gimme a little bit, I'll have the Mulberry St. Special coming right up

 

[RudysNYC]

@GetUrShineBox take your pick I mocked up two. The one on the right looks like it could actually be a regular chip but didn't know how else to get the colors onto the chip without going full-blown ceramic lol.
