Need help with CPC custom Bellagio inspired chip design (1 Viewer)

[ChipReeseG]

Hello guys seriously considering ordering a custom CPC set. Need help with the design for the inlays. $5, $25, $100, $500, $1,000, $5,000 chips.

B. 's Hotel & Casino
NORRFJÄRDEN, SWEDEN

B. logo - $100 - NFJTPT logo

One Hundred Dollars


I want the same "B" in the background, same background colours. But instead for the gray background maybe some cool "cartoon" casino styled design themed stuff. Hard to explain.
If someone could help me design this it would be highly appreciated!

Here's my inspiration for the designs, and here's what I put in so far in the pokerchipdesigntool.com:

The first 3 seem really dark when looked at together??? The last 3 look very similar. Just my initial observation and $0.02

 

[ChipReeseG]

Anyone know where I can find someone who can design that for me?

@Johnny5 is great and has helped me out a couple times now.

Also, have you considered B-Mold? It’s my favorite mold and feels great.

 

[ChipReeseG]

Thank you!

Yes I have actually looked into the B-Mold, it would look pretty good considering "B. Hotel & Casino"

 

[chipinla]

It’s fantastic. Also, the B run is coming up soon. If you get your order in probably by the end of May you’ll have your chips in September or so.

 

[ChipReeseG]

Oh really I thought it was 1 year waiting period?

Just depends on the timing of when the mold is going in. If you do B mold you’ll get lucky

 

[ChipReeseG]

I might get some samples of the B-Mold then! I've allready had my hands on the Small Crown-mold thanks to @Eriks and his amazing custom made set, and they were really nice to shuffle.

 

[chipinla]

That being said, don’t rush it. Make sure it’s perfect

If I were to do another set, I would choose the CSQ mold fwiw. I would recommend getting a shuffle stack of the molds that you’re considering. I just had the mold sample with one chip of each when deciding. Not saying I dislike the scrown but I recently got a shuffle stack of CSQ and was really blown away.

 

[ChipReeseG]

Having second thoughts about the $100 design;

Need a poll on these lol.

 

[ChipReeseG]

Also would it be possible to have this is artwork for background, then all the whole;

"B. 's Hotel & Casino
NORRFJÄRDEN, SWEDEN"


Like would it look good on the actually final product?

 

[Gunnar]

To much detail for the inlay.

There are a lot of chips that will cause dirty stacks in that line-up, choose your favourite chip, make it the workhorse chip, is this cash set in Krônur? Tell us what chip is your favourite

Then we can help you build around it

 

[Eriks]

Definitely too much detail for an inlay on a compression molded clay chip. Look at the custom chip database to get an idea of what people are doing.

If you want detailed artwork printed on the chip, ceramics from brpro is a better choice.

Agree with @Gunnar that more contrast between denoms is needed

I’ve found that simple inlays = better inlays. You may be able to leverage just the B. design.

 

[BillyBluff]

There are some very expensive chip levels in your designs. For example how many 5s are you going to need at L10? If money is no object then carry on, but you might have to re-evaluate based upon your budget.

 

[ChipReeseG]

I'm thinking 600 $5's, 400 $25's, 400 $100's, 200 $500's, 300 $1k's and 100 $5k's.

So 2,000 chips total I guess.

Where can you see how much it will be for each individual chip?

 

[ChipReeseG]

ty for the input guys, helps a lot. Iäll just stick with the grey Bellagio background standard-thing then.

 

[Eriks]

I'm thinking 600 $5's, 400 $25's, 400 $100's, 200 $500's, 300 $1k's and 100 $5k's.

So 2,000 chips total I guess.

Are you sure you need that many? More than one table? What stakes?

 

[ChipReeseG]

We play 6-8 people, 5/5 with some straddles. We like having big stacks lol. The $500's, $1k and $5k will act as a tournament set though.

 

[BillyBluff]

Where can you see how much it will be for each individual chip?

You can find the current pricing here. A L10 CSQ will cost $4.98 per chip (small crown a bit more). They can add up fast!

 

[ChipReeseG]

I think I will go with the B-Diamond or the Small Crown mold, what is the different levels when it says "Level 5" and so on?

 

[Eriks]

It still seems excessive. Especially considering the spot complexity of some of these chips. It’s gonna get pretty expensive

 

[ChipReeseG]

So I should go for a little more simple designs on the chips?

 

[BillyBluff]

You can find the price of the L5 chips based on your mold selection and then add on the level premium (B-diamond and circle square are the same base price here). So L10 is $3.38 + $1.60

 

[Eriks]

So I should go for a little more simple designs on the chips?

You should do what you want of course . But if budget is of any concern you might either wanna limit the number of chips of certain denoms or cut down on the complexity of spots. If it’s not a concern, go nuts!

I would totally get samples of the B-mold to compare. They are very different from scrown. The B mold has a very prominent texture, whereas the scrown is much smoother.
Texture-wise, these two chips couldn’t be further apart.

 

[ChipReeseG]

I will get samples first and decide, I really, really liked the Scrown though! @Eriks
