I'm building out a complete Isle Pompano set. From .05 thru 100k. Microstakes through deepstack tournament. I need feedback and opinions, other than I'm crazy. I already know that. Which of the 2 $0.05 chips do you like better or would you do something completely different? Also, $100k.. chip or plaque (I'm thinking chip) how would you design it out to fit in the set?

I've read enough on this forum to know how opinionated many here are. Hard to believe no one will give opinions or suggestions on this one.
 
for whatever reason the $1 didn't show in the pic. It's attached below. I could do 100k plaques which is a thought. Still, what color scheme. May or may not get the 2s at all. Was thinking could use them for limit if so desired, like 2/4 or 4/8 LHE.

Does your cash set end at $25 and your tourney set begin at $100?
The cash set technically uses $25 (as well as the tournament set) although, they likely will not see the table. We generally do $20 buy-in cash games, and have yet to see enough rebuys to warrant putting the 25s into play.

I'm thinking to change the spots on the .05 to 4 pairs to match the 5 but use white, and have the .25 spots match the 2 by removing the white between to have the base color show through.

I like the orange nickel and I'd go with a plaque for the 100k but that's just because I love plaques.
I don't dislike the idea of using plaques. Have no idea how i would design them though. Was kinda thinking Aria flag colors if I did a chip.
 
I guess I will start with this....

This is an active casino's chips/artwork. I get the feeling most people on this forum frown upon copying the design of an active casino's chips. ...I'm graphic designer and a business owner, so yes. I fall into the category of people frowning on this.

I understand your stance, and not sure if this will make any difference in your mind. As far as I know, these are not longer live. I believe everything was bought out, but @Josh Kifer could confirm. The chips being manufactured are strictly ones the casino did not use. All the 1, 2, 5, 25, 100, 500, and 1k are all (what were) live casino chips. I am only creating ones that (at least to my knowledge) were not used by the casino with the exception on the 5k which was a Paulson and these will be made to look like the rest of the Chipcos.

Was rebranded. Not an active casino. Now Harrah's. Entire lot sold to Chip Room. I sold the ceramic cash, N has the ceramic tourney, and Jim sold the Paulsons. Justin has been making 25k and 5k chips to add into the set. I have about 30k of them left in my shop. No real issue here.

Cool. Then go for it.
 
Tell the chip police to put a smile on their face and stop frowning. Make the set if you want.

I'd do a plaque too. Ceramic like the chips would fit nicely in the set. Maybe somebody like @Cratty could help you out making it fit with the set?
