Default Celtic Chip Art

Here are a couple of ideas I am working on for a Celtic chip. Comments, criticisms etc. are welcome. I am very new at this.

Take a look at the Book of Kells. That would make very cool art.

Those are a very good start. I assume in "real life," you'd be varying the colors from chip to chip.

Very distinctive.

I like the first one a lot more than the second one. There's just something to be said for a sense of symmetry on the chip.

Boston Celtic chip art would be way cooler.

I think he could have some serious competition for the Egyptian chips there...

I like the design and prefer the triangle over the circular knot... even if it is unsymetrical... look forward to other color versions. It's not a knot but I like this football logo:


What did you use to do up your designs? Might be best to use vector based graphics programs particularly adobe illustrator... or freehand/corel draw. The chip factory that HPC uses uses AI 8.0 to drive the printing software. FYI - I did mine up in photoshop & they had to be redone.

Also FYI CMYK colors are better compared to RGB. If you don't have color wheels or seen the color chart for colors you might search for tabasco's post of the scan of the chips. The pdf file's worthless for choosing the color and tabasco's scanned photo is the closest I've seen to the actual color wheels. The printable area is 37.05mm... I might have some other info... pm if you're interested.

- Fins

I like the colors, and I like the knot, but I was assuming there'd be a different knot for each denomination.
