A Spectrum of Pyra Renders

[levi]

ED has got the moulds modified to add texture for grip, so if reflectiveness were added to the surface, it would at best give you a very soft reflection, or more likely no reflection at all.

Wouldn't that accumulate fingerprints and end up feeling all finger-greasy?

Ha! Thats nothing compared to my "Fingerprint-Nightmare Pyra"!

Until you touch it the first time. I would not want it that way. Metal case yes, but anodized/dull/flat or something like that.

It's a future Pyra. Everything is chrome in the future!

 

[rygD]

fusion_power, get us some metal Pyra cases made.

Even professionals failed there, so I guess nobody will ever made a real metal case for Pandora/Pyra. We can dream of course.

I also have a (not so great) carbon Pyra made, the textures are not perfect but you get the Idea. It should look more like the nice carbon surface of the Dell XPS Notebooks.

Edit, that's a little bit better:

In that case i would say you utterly failed.

exactly

(I don't like it though )

You don't have to like it, you just have to live with it

Looks like a multi-meter, something you chuck in your toolbox
I guess it would be a good colour in such an environment.

 

[torpor]

I love it, I definitely want a Safety Orange Pyra. Brilliant color for such a device ..

 

[Eight Bit]

And then add a broad white reflector tape stripe over the middle...

Red Hot!

ED stalking update: ED was viewing this thread earlier today, and I have no idea why.

Any theories?

 

[levi]

People were talking about using lighter off-white colours in the current main news thread last night. I guess he was seeing how any renders look in those shades.

Also, why shouldn't he? What is it to you?

 

[JDTAY]

I just like to keep up-to-date on all the latest Pyra happenings.

Maybe too up-to-date...

 

[Eight Bit]

Ah, nice to have this thread back on top!

 

[EvilDragon]

I showed this thread to the case team to get some ideas about colors
