A Spectrum of Pyra Renders

A search for "color" in the forums will pull up at least two polls and a dozen threads on colour ideas.
I think it's easy to get carried away, but thinking about back to when I first looked at the Pyra a few years ago, I mostly referred to the official Pyra page with the dark red. And that colour, or something like it, is likely to be most prominent in the minds of many people when ordering, other than black (easy to imagine) or transparent (used for all prototyping).
I do feel that the dark red is both stylish and uniquely evocative of the Pyra and would push for that as a strong contender.

Nice. Then ED can run a car over it and look how it turns out.I still have some left and ofcorse i will do some tests after i complete my first production .When that happens i will send those samples to ED so he can choose were to send Them
During the years in this forum, we learned alot about injection molding and plastic materials. A little bit longer and we can distinguish every type of plastic just by it's taste!thanks @azouls for bringing this deep knowledge about plastics and moulding to our little boards!
together we will make the pyra look awesome!

i am working 18 years in plastic industrie with couple of Old people who are in this buisness that had transfering me all the knowledge they had in plastic and Still learning new staff everyday XD . About that " Nice. Then ED can run a car over it and look how it turns out. " The job that i have done with carbon fiber When we gived the item for streanth check it was holding 800 killos.Then we create a recipe and we Mixed the CarbonFiber with 2 more matterials and the results from that was 1.300 killos Streanth check. So it will be a nice experiance to see that car test too .Nice. Then ED can run a car over it and look how it turns out.

I don't know what ED or any of you guys drive, but the last couple of gens of BMW 3 series cars and VW Golfs were a little more heavy that that. It does depend on tyre pressure also though, if you let the tyres down it could never reach that peak weight as part of the flat-ish tyre could still be resting on the ground, versus if you pump up the tyres if would acts as a wave of weight travelling from one side to the other. Thinking it through though, assuming the suspension accommodates the travel to get over the plastic moulding, it should only be at most 1/4 weight in a car test. You'd have to balance the car on the case somehow (maybe on the left headlight) to get the full weight transfer to the moulding.

Impressive. The plastic force is strong in this one. May the Lego brick be with you!
I always imagined you are the type of person that drives an electric car.Opel Zafira, latest model - and yep, it's a bit more heavy
I'm sure, the Pandora and Pyra would at least survive the little one.

The current rounds of Zafira have only been on sale for 8 years. The only half decent electric car on sale there was the Nissan Leaf I think, and as we all know if you've only just bought a car it's more environmentally efficient to run it till it's closer to dead than to cut its lifespan short and buy an EV, with all of the new steel costs involved. Although 8 years is quite a long time to own a car I reckon, so he might be due a new EV any day now I couldn't say.
Unimog's since the mid 1990s have been about 5 tonnes I think I read. I don't know where @matzesu's Unimog dates from, but I suspect it's a little older, but 5 metric tonnes should be enough for anything I suspect

If only chell had her Pyra with her; she could have internet searched for that phrase and disovered it's meaning from the start of the first game. It'd have made it a shorter game though, I guess.
