Sasquatch Poker Club chip proposal (1 Viewer)

This is what I think I'd like to go with. I have no idea how these would actually turn out. If I've made an errors or if there are issues with the chips, I would appreciate any constructive criticism. I have spent a fair amount of time trying to get these figured out. Definitely a novice at this.

I've seen many chips with the denomination on one side and a logo one the other, but I personally prefer denoms on both sides. Just a preference thing, but they look very nice

Too many colors common among different chips Dirty stack issues all over the place with the 25,100, 1000.

I'm a fan of 1 side denoms, but you have too much going on, consider reducing the background on the denom side

Thanks for your comments. I was trying to stay with a natural looking theme to compliment the logo. Maybe not a great idea. I do need to keep the base colors of the the chips the same as what they are. White, Black, Red, Green and Blue, as that is what we have traditionally used. I was hoping the dot pattern would offset common colors, more dots on the smaller denominations. Assuming one of the three (white, black, green remains as is), any suggestions on what secondary color(s) would look good on the other two chips?

I’ve heard about these chips, but nobody has ever seen them


For the TONE police that was a joke. Because everyone’s heard of Sasquatch but nobody’s seen one. So hopefully this satisfies your “tone” requirements.

Not gonna work, you need contrast. Imagine a pot with a bunch of the 25s, 100s and 1ks all splashed, and then trying to estimate how much is in there. They will blend in with each other making that impossible with a quick glance.

Even more reason to make this set both different and better than past sets. If you have large and clear denominations on chips that are visually different by color, it won't matter what was used in the past.

But using green chips with black/white, white chips with green/black, and black chips with green/white together is a recipe for disaster.

One-sided denom works since you have quite a lot of detail in the samsquatch, need to give max room/size so detail not lost. Wish I did that for my set.

Agree that spot colour could be tweaked. If you ditch the white on the 500 and 1000 the lineup is much cleaner. No need to replace with another colour, just remove those white spots. That's a quick/dirty fix.

But many would say spend months and months trying different tweaks and reflecting. They may be right, once chips made you can't go back.

Try this for an easy transition from Old to new colors:

Old 25 = white
new 25 = light green with large white spots

Old 100 = black
new 100 = black with small gray spots

Old 500 = red
new 500 = light red/pink with medium-size (dark) red spots

Old 1000 = green
new 1000 = yellow with large dark green spots

Old 5000 = blue
new 5000 = light blue with small dark blue spots

Ditch the green coloring in the logo/inlay and stick to brown tones. Make the denom large, clear, and in a not-otherwise-used color.
