First mockup of the character development...

I like them all, but am drawn more to #2

 

[UTGPoker]

I dig switching to the charcoal base, but instead of grey for the spot, have you considered retro lavender?

It almost feels darker to me?

 

[UTGPoker]

Woody sent me an update!! Still rough character sketch, but I love the new look.

Honest question, are these the edgespots ur desire, or the ones that you feel comfortable with due to budget restrictions.

The only reason I ask is because you did mention that in your cash set you created.

With that being said, the reason I bring this up is because there ARE so many awesome edgespot designs with ridiculous colors. If you like this, great, looks pretty good.

But if you are doing this because of budgetary concerns, my advice would be, wait, save some money for a few months or whatever and get a holy shit set

Its a little of both.

It originally started as a budgetary restriction, but now they edgespots have really grown on me. I like the uniformity and cleanliness.

I have my crazy set started (on the design tool) but I dont think it would fit well with this theme.

 

[UTGPoker]

Well, great work all round and to @p5woody

I cant speak highly enough of Steve. He has been great to work with so far!

This is good advice.

That looks unreal, well done fellas. Now more underworld, rather than country and western .

Here's my suggestions, keeping with the bright dayglo theme and not duplicating any colors:

Thanks for making some mockups! I like the Orange, moght have to consider that.

Just curious, as I know you have mentioned it before, why no repeating colors? I know we want distinct colors to avoid dirty stacks, but ive never had an issue especially with these simple edge spots

Because why not use a plethora of different colors when you can. I would encourage everyone to use the full color wheel when making a custom set unless your set is very very distinct with a color theme, Let's say for instance a military theme, or a patriotic theme, or your favorite sports team theme.

Fair enough.

I have never been a "because its there" type person I guess.

In addition to manamongkid's thoughts:

There are some color combinations that work better together than others...... and some color combinations that work better when matched up with certain other color combinations. Duplicating colors -- especially when the same edge spot configurations are used -- will often look 'odd' when viewed as a set. The individual chips may look just fine, but not when all chips are in play together.

There is also the opposite-color-wheel approach to combining colors, and the concept of using a group of different color combinations that have a similar amount of contrast in each pairing.

Previous Set for Comparison

New Mockup


So I have take some of this advice under consideration. Here is a new mockup, all Level 3, more colors, but there are still colors that repeat. Personally I like a "theme" of colors, and I feel repeating colors (like pulling a base color of a lower denom onto an edgespot of a higher denom) actually to me, visually groups the chips together. Anyway, here is my new mockup taking your guys advice to add some more colors

mega improvement IMO

I like 'em all to be honest. Nice work!

Only suggestion would be maybe changing up the white spot on one of the chips (maybe swap mandarin or retro red on the hundo.)

I might try a Blue, like the Rio WSOP 100

 

[Psypher1000]

The hundo is begging for some color. Other than that, I think the latest mocks work well.

Or sub the white for gray and have a perfectly beautiful monochrome chip

 

[RowdyRawhide]

OK had a few minutes to play

 

[BGinGA]

 

[manamongkids]

I would just keep playing with the denoms you arent satisfied with yet, personally I love the T25, T500? I assume
and T5000

I would keep mocking up options for the T100 and T1000

 

[RowdyRawhide]

I'll throw a few 25's at ya too

 

[stocky]

 

[UTGPoker]

Went black on the hundo... Its dark, but I think the contrast with the dayglo is striking

 

[UTGPoker]

And a dark black monochrom hundo...

 

[UTGPoker]

I would like to introduce everyone to Hijack, our new mascot.

Hi, Jack!

 

[UTGPoker]

Steve keeps delivering and making these better!!

Semi-final.
