Dreaming about a € micro stakes & general casino games cash set I might do one day.
Bigger values would be 5 & 20 and awesome to do as plaques. I like the 0.05 - 0.2 - 1 - 5 - 20 progression and to have plaques for 5 & 20 would fit the euro currency perfectly.
Im not sure yet which material/manufacture I like best for this (displayed are Matsui's). So I should probably dig through some samples first.

Yes.... yet another mockup, but I'll disclose now that the inlay art (and hotstamp art for the tourney set (as seen in post #2700 on page 90) ) is being worked on right now by one of our very own PCF professionals. The unveiling of the actual art will be "soon", so stay tuned.
The pic below is the cash set. I previously had selected a lt chocolate chip for the quarter. However, given my color samples as well as my retro red and lt choc chips from another CPC set, the risk of dirty stacks between those two were real.
Thus, my solution is to change the quarter base color to canary.
I have 4 spot variants I'm considering (as seen below). It'll be one of them, but I'm not sure which yet.
The others:
blurple $1, retro red $5, dg green $25, black $100

I like the two inner canary variations.... kinda leaning to the 314 because there isn't much blue in the set... but I like both.
Good choice. Frac options 2-4 all look great.
Chocolate fracs usually only goes well with a white (or similar bright) $1.
Ok, I fixed the "isn't much blue" problem.

Ignore the inlay, but how is this for a 25c/$1/$5/$20 cash set on the scrown mold?

CPC 3916 > 312 > tri-moon (half circle)

I have to agree there. The tri-moon looks out of place in this lineup. Otherwise, I like where this is going. Could easily be a great old-school set.

I just can’t stand the CPC version of “tri-moon”. Especially since it’s not a tri-moon… it’s a half circle. And the spots just always look sloppy to me.
Just having some fun mocking up some awesome existing chips for a pretend old school / mining theme.
The idea with 3 denoms is $0.10 / $1 / $10 for an efficient micro stakes set.
My stupid opinion only. SCrown mold sucks. Tri-moon sucks. Combining tri-moon on Scrown mold is almost a neutron star of suckiness.
I tend to agree; so much so that I can confidently say I’ll never use tri-moon. The only spot pattern it really fits with is other tri moons.
Scrown is a brilliant mold tho imho.

Can always count on Fran!!
Despite my previous comments on the spot pattern, I must say this set should look real good when produced.I have a tournament set coming on B-Diamond that's all tri-moon
No joke.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. I have confidence it will look pretty sharp. We'll know in a bit!

Playing around with ideas. Thinking about making a golf theme set. Don't have an inlay or name yet. Just a filler inlay. Thoughts, feedback, ideas for name? Chips you like/dont like in this lineup. Unsure of red or pink frac.
You mean kinda like a slightly more photo-real version of the Dunes inlay?
How about "Links" using a similar font?

Well, I think I want to do more of a vintage inlay design and pass on the photo real. I just threw that in there to get an idea. I really like the off-white look I got with the castaway casino inlay. I want the same vibe just golf related.
Don't get me wrong, I would almost never advocate for a photo-real inlay. I would have suggested layering blocks of gradient colours to get an ever-so-slightly more depth effect. Sounds like you want to get away with fewer colours, maybe 3? Start a design thread!

Exactly! I'll move to a design thread
. But to your point im thinking Red for flag, green for grass and blue for sky as the main hits to the inlayCreate an account or login to comment
