I'll send Tim a PM even though he's got to be swamped. Thanks!

If he is able to do it have him print the Paulson color in the middle we are trying to replicate.
I sent @Colquhoun my designs from the Paulson chip designer. My images were in .png and I needed them to be in .ai . He did a great job doing so and cleaning it up overall. I'm really pleased with the results. In my opinion, the body/spot colors in particular strike me as being very close to what I submitted. I would expect the colors of a dye sub printed image vs a colored clay material to present differently - but that considered, these appear to be very good. Picture taken outside in sunlight:

Justin sent me a sample of the new mold. My initial thought is this the best mold to date no question (and I actually did NOT like the look at all or the idea initially). Injection points underneath label area so not on edges.
When it comes to colors, Tina has always had great color, but the print saturation doesn’t appear as deep or as consistent throughout as cards mold. Could just be the way the mold reflects giving that illusion to me. That’s not necessarily a bad thing though. That combined with the texture of the mold make them look very clay like and almost chalky
And the 43mm is legit

Ever since the first big cards mold GB that @SeanGecko ran about three years ago, all the designers here have been trying to duplicate some of the more premium Paulson and CPC colors. Justin has some great colors here, and many others over the years have come up with good looking colors. We've definitely tried to duplicate Blaze Orange, Arc Yellow and some of the CPC Day Glo colors, with varying degrees of success. @Johnny5 got pretty close to Arc Yellow with the Aria's $20 chip. @timinater designed a custom set for me that attempted to duplicate many DG colors. We got really close on DG pink, and didn't do too bad with DG Tiger and Peacock. But as far as getting Blaze, I just don't think that one is possible. Heck, you can't even really capture that color very well in a photo, so I wouldn't expect to ever get it on a printed ceramic chip.
I'm swamped with work today, but I can try to take photos next to color chips for some of the Tina chips that I have. Probably be tomorrow at the earliest.
It's no problem, though this would be custom work. Would likely be covered off in the minimal modification fee to get it done, but it does take more than just a couple minutes and can add up quickly with several requests.

Just a wrong spelling
Denari facili o denaro facile
Your point is well taken, but I don't speak Italian. I have Italian ancestry. Maybe a mistake not consulting an Italian speaker but I got my result using this:

(I apologize for the thread jack. I was only trying to answer a question posed here about the Paulson color reproduction on these chips).

Here's my Pioneer Club custom tournament set. If anyone wants to join in, we can split the setup fee amongst us.

I was extremely impressed with this mold. Hands down the best one to date. I didn’t think I would be thinking of a set, but these are legit and I think I might go for it.

What makes this mold better than rhc? Or scrown?

It’s personal preference. To me, the look and feel of these are much better than the others.

There’s also a difference in the face of the chip…since there’s less areas of recess, it prints with more detail. When there’s large recesses, anything printing over them can get blurry or off-color. Since they’re usually just edgespots, it’s not too much of an issue, but with the Greek mold, I think you can start adding other graphics with less loss of quality.

@calquhoun will be sending my articles file for customs. I'll send a PM with my request

You pay the custom rate plus the label fee and yes you can do Aladdin
Are Aurora star 43mm available or do I have to wait for the next group buy?
OP

Anything is available as a custom. So far none of the pre-designed are going to be made anyway.

I am going to update the details soon. I assumed there would be more demand for these.

Thread has been updated. Due to lack of demand for "Pre-designed" sets, we needed to make a change. Prices are now the same for all custom or pre-designed and a label fee will be assessed per order. Example: If four people wanted to order King's Castle then the label fee would be split up four ways. If you have a custom set you want made then you would pay the whole label fee. In most cases the label fee is $80 per set.
