Hi All,

After a night of playing with the web mold, I am ready to pull the trigger on my custom set. This idea was one I picked up from @MrRossKeys last year and I've been working on it for a while. It's a bay area sports team themed chipset. Figure I should get them into play before the A's leave town. Hopefully the edges turn out as great as the printing I saw on the faces of the chips last night. These will be semi-gloss labels. The fracs will be 39mm with a 24mm label and the rest of the chips will be 43mm with a 28mm label.

Any feedback is appreciated.
 
I would recommend a different base color for the $25 to distinguish from the $5. Maybe a lavender or orchid?

Raiders who? I like the other ideas though. I have an alternate set that use black labels and the teams alternate or throwback colors. Maybe work in Thunder somehow onto the warriors chip label
 
I like the red/gold quarterpie and green 25 options. Would prefer numbers not obscured by the denomination background, as 5 and 25 is broken up oddly.
san - fran - ciscooo or san fran ciscooo but this gives me the ick: san. fran- -ciscooo

I understand why you are picking your overall color scheme, but the team colors are just not that pretty together IMHO. This may not matter to the true fan.

(you asked for feedback, but I won't be offended if you disagree, you've thought about it longer than I have)
 
How do you get to pick edgespots w these chips?
They are ceramic chips, so you can make whatever you want. Most folks use the chip designers (CPC or Paulson) here to draft, design colors and spots then replicate those, but you can honestly do whatever your mind can imagine and commit to pixels for printing. One of the advantages of a ceramic chip.

Like white lizard said You can do anything
 
So after back and forth with Tina, I realized that getting the labels done how I wanted was just not going to be possible. So I asked the chips to be shipped to me sans labels and I decided I would do them myself.

@jamesjkim was nice enough to point me to a thread where onlinelabels were recommended and so I ordered a 100 pack of precut matte 1.1in labels. I fired up illustrator again and re-designed the labels a handful of times before settling on a new look.

I burned through 10-15 sheets trying to dial in colors and sizing and finally got to a point where I was ready to run the printer for these things. Over the course of the last few days I went ahead and applied 2000 labels to my chips. I might end up re-doing the fracs since I’m not too happy with how they turned out but I am definitely glad I didn’t settle for what Tina’s label vendor was going to deliver. Color matching was important to me.

Thank you to @jamesjkim @MrRossKeys @TheRealTeddyKGB @SPR @quintooo @Godzilla28 @Colquhoun and the rest of the folks that I bothered through this process.

I’m also realizing how much my phone messes with the white balance in the photos. Oh well I’m not staging shots again. The colors are much closer to the team uniform colors than represented here. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
