Okay guys I think I am getting close to the finished product. I wanted a 40's style pin-up girl theme. This is what I came up with, so tell me what you think. I welcome all constructive critisism. :D

Once again, I LOVE them. I'm jealous that you get scalloped inlays and I dont. 
If you scallop the inlays, I'd get the color PERFECT, or dont do it at all. It'll cheapen the chips if the colors dont match and it an obvious fake afffect.

Thanks again, I have to agree that is my one concern, that I get the colors just right. It will make or break them.
I have to say that I love your chips....I just can't afford them....yet. I think that the shaped inlays would have made yours set the absolute best on the market, bar NONE. I still think they are the best looking out there. You and Johnny5 have done a bang up job. Wish you all the luck in the world dealing with Paulson. 8)

Yeah....those are great designs. Love the pin-up girl artwork and the scalloping (is that a word?) is a great touch.
Cheers,

Don't mean to Highjack your thread but....
Ten, did you hear anything about that mold design for your chips yet? I was curious if you got any word yet.

Those look great. I have the RPT chips too in black, yellow and purple. I don't like the looks of the blues or reds though, so I plan on buying the blues and reds from the Nexgen 8002 series instead.

Lookin good! I really like these chips!
Posted Tue Mar 22, 2005 8:55 pm GMT by tastic
nice chips!
different labels on either side...didn't think I would like it but nice job
Posted Tue Mar 22, 2005 9:24 pm GMT by Iron Butt
Yeah, those look great.
If you use one of the pro label guys they seem to have the Nexgen colors well worked out, everyone seems to use the color matching thing one way or another.
Only change I might make would be to make the image slightly larger so that the center part came out all the way to the edge, or as close as possible, I don't know what kind of tolerances you have to work with.

where are you getting these made?

Thanks, Guys! I don't know yet. I had Brent from Lynbark print up a sample page for me a few versions ago. I am considering him and Jason and the personalpokerships.com site. I am considering the last one becasue they cut the design after the printing. I guess I will see who can match the colors the best. They are all comparable in price and I have heard nothing but good things about all of their customer service. Any suggestions?

Hey... what about these guys?
They claim to actually "custom cut" the labels with a machine:
Perhaps they could actually cut the scalloped part out?
(Edit: oops, beat me to it, but I'll be curious to hear their response)

Nope, I e-mailed them and this was his response "We wouldn't be able to set up the cut design for that. It would cost way to much for prep for only 1000 cuts". It was a long shot, oh well! I will just have to see who can match the colors just right.
