Very nice. I am torn between outright customs or Paulsons. I am waiting to receive my Paulson samples, prior to making my decision, but the more examples of custom chips I see the more I wonder which way to go.

VAR, you and Fins have the best looking Chipcos I've seen. Great job on the design!

Well thank you. I would say that jldecarlo's chips (I traded him a sample set so I know of what I speak) are also every bit as nice, as are trevorwc's Twin Cities Poker Tour chips. I might go so far as to say that puzzlemonkey (Tiki chips) has the best of them all.

Oh yes, and Ten's Egyptians are super sweet too. I'd give them the nod over everyone but puz due to the octagon, the plaque and the overall quality of the graphics on the chips. Indeed, I would say that any real casino would do well to design a set as nice as Ten's.

Have I forgotten anyone? I know a few others had some awsome custom designs in the works but I don't think any of them got done.

Oh, GW did his biker chips but he never posted pics of the final product. I still wish we could see those puppies. Also another nice design that I really liked.
