Above are all the chips as they looked before being drawn upon. Though blank, the orientation of each matches its orientation in the corresponding final chip portrait created from it. From this display, one can guess into what final image the addition of a few details might transform a particular chip, without having simultaneously to imagine which orientation would lead to an interesting final image.Though each chip became a final, solo portrait, some also joined another chip in a duet portrait. The display above indicates this by giving duet partners the same background color. However, common background color does not guarantee two chips appear in a duet because, in a few cases, an unrelated chip may also share that background color (for example, there are three red background chips, but only two of them appear in a duet).
To have some of the fun I had in creating
, do the following: (1) pick out a chip whose shape interests you, (2) take out a pencil and paper, and sketch your idea of what the chip portrait probably looks like, and then (3) click on the image of that chip above, and see how your idea compares to mine. If you want a further clue before trying any particular chip (or all of them) click on Blank Chips in Portrait Orientation, Titled below, and see portrait titles.
