I wanted to have this up sooner, but most people know about the lost package saga, and then my kitchen reno started and everything was packed up, and everything's been general chaos around the household, but I finally got my shit together and edge-oiled the chips and got some simple pictures done against my new quartz countertop and granite backsplash.

Chips are all CPC on Large Crown mold, while plaques are MSK. The completion of this set marks a major milestone on my chipping checklist.

Original design thread here:
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/thre...bute-idea-that-ive-been-kicking-around.56820/

With this chip/plaque set, I should be able to recreate the 10-player, $10million buy-in, $5million buy-back tournament as shown in Casino Royale (2006). T5000 base tournament with starting stacks of 20/20/34/6/3 for each player. Enough T100K chips to colour up all the T5K and T25K, and enough high denom plaques to cover all rebuys and eventually colour up all the chips. I hope to be able to run an exclusive special charity fundraising event for local chippers using this set.

Breakdown:
200x T5K
200x T25K
400x T100K
60x T500K
70x T1MM
10x T5MM

Dealer/Croupier button made by @Potsie1 , and cut cards made in French flag colours in one of the many previous group buys (thanks to all!).

Enjoy!

Note: By the end of this week I will organize the sale of sample sets, with all proceeds going into a pot to be donated to charity when I run my next fundraising event on May 14, 2022. There will be a VERY limited number of sample sets available, only up to 7 large sets (3 chips + 2 plaques), and only up to 10 small sets (3 chips only). Details to follow.
 
beautiful, tell me about those plaques

Anything in particular you'd like to know?

MSK produced, all 5mm thickness. 3 consecutive larger sizes, like on their website. Main graphics produced by me. Main colours based on French flag with red, blue, white; denom and flourish colours in metallic gold, silver, copper respectively. Was a tribute to the original B&G production design without really copying anything. $5MM plaque produced to save a bit of money (this denom not used in movie).
 
Really well done and awesome to see this finally able to come together with everything that went into the delays.

Chips, plaques and accessories came out amazing.
 
Absolutely gorgeous set! Lovely large-crowns and count me in the pro-plaque fandom.

Please be sure to post plenty of pics of these in play. I bet the table will look spectacular with the chips and stacks of plaques.

Well done! Enjoy these. May you scoop many big pots with the set! :tup:



(count me interested in the sample sets. :oops:)
 
The colors on this is great. Keep looking at it. When I’m ready to make plaques I’ll be hitting you up for suggestions/help!

Can we get a $10M splash pot @allforcharity ?!?

Dibs too for a full set. I've thought these were super cool since you started that design thread.
 
Wow this is phenomenal! I'd really love to have a tournament set that included stacks of plaques! Looks amazing!

I'm glad you like it! Thanks for the compliments.

If anybody likes the art enough to want their own set, I'll be granting open license for the art for any PCFer to use, with only a few certain restrictions.
