T-mold "Semi-Custom" Project - Round #1
Auxiliary Chips

Please submit single-chip entries for "other" (or "auxiliary/alternative") chips in the T-mold semi-customs set. You can submit up to 3 entries in this category.

The base colour for this chip can really be any allowed base colour (for allowed base colours, see the list in the information thread). In particular, this is your opportunity to enter chips based on BCC's "mustard", "gold", "adobe", "plum", "mauve", "light pink", "hot pink", "lavender" (if you want to have both lavender and laker purple in the set), "dark blue" (for both a light/dophin/horizon and dark blue chip in the set), "arc yellow", "peach", "w orange", "coral", "grey", "bone white", "sky blue", "sherbet green", etc. Spot colours are totally up to you -- there are 35 to choose from! Available spot colours are listed here (linky). Keep in mind that these chips might be used as a T5000 (tourney), a fractional, a non-denom chip, a substitute for a standard colour, or whatever someone wants in his/her custom set. The options are endless!

You can use ChipTalk.net's "Poker Chip Factory" (under the "Site Tools" menu) to play around. Please pick "HPC -> Interlocking T*" for the mold. You'll find most of the colours in the "BCC" palette, with some others in the "SP" palette. We're working on getting the remaining available spot colours into Poker Chip Factory. In the meantime, please use "verde" for "forest green", and the TR King "black" for "charcoal" (they're not exact matches, but they're fairly close).

For your official entries, you may simply post the names of the colours (base colour first, followed by 2 spot colours) for each of your entries. That's all I need. I'll post a "Poker Chip Factory" mock-up of each entry in a poll 5 days from now. If you want, you can (optionally) post one (or more) mock-up(s) of what the chip might look like with an interesting spot pattern(s) that you had in mind, but "3d14" spots will be used in the poll for the purposes of Round #1.

For more information on the project, see here (linky).

All "other" chip entries must be posted in this thread by Monday, February 4 at 2pm EST.

You may change your entries as many times as you want before the deadline, but please edit your previous post (rather than posting multiple times) and I'll go with whatever is there at the deadline. And feel free to discuss each other's entries and promote your own... Happy mocking up!

As an example, I'm going to re-enter a chip that did very well in the "brown" category despite being mustard-based:


(the right-most version, although it might get paired with something like what's on the left for voting purposes)

Mustard with Adobe and Chocolate!

Again, graphical mock-ups aren't necessary but you're welcome to post them - and show us what it might look like with spots outside the (boring) 3d14 ones shown here! And maybe even as part of a set using the standard colours that have already been voted on.

Up to 3 entries per person, preferably using different base colours. Doesn't matter if you put all 3 in the same post or spread them out.

Two ideas.
1) arc yellow with horizon blue and dark blue
2) coral with canary yellow and day green

When you go to "Inlay -> Load", you should be able to copy & paste the following into the URL address field:

Then click "Import Inlay -> Inlay #1". It should appear. Then you can click on the inlay graphic and choose "Inlay to Main" (or send it to chips you've already made, by number).

I'll go ahead and enter the chips from my recent post in the discussion thread. The one with 4 pie chips, and 6 non-pie chips.

Pink with quarter pie spots of lavendar and Laker purple
Orange with quarterpie spots of white and arc yellow

Pink and Orange are must haves in the set, IMO.

Jeff,

See my post to you and Michael in the main thread -- Why are you ruling out sherbert green as an other chip entry here once we have established a traditional green (non-sherbert) chip in the green chip cycle? Michael did not state an averstion generally, just to having sherbert in lieu of traditional green.

Thanks.
