Yup, a fast Gimp concept:
Nice, seems like you used bucket filling with very low opacity which is more realistic.
4) Spray paint 90º from the surface.
Seems like you know what you are talking about, I was thinking that I'd have to do just that when simulating in my head. I also imagined I'd have to spray far from the target.
The hard part for me would be to do a precise cut.
I just took a brush, set the size bigly huge and painted all over the selected area. It's not realistic looking, but it gives an idea of what I was thinking of at least. Some way of using a tint of the original texture might indeed be better, but I haven't tried that yet:
Bucket filling in black with some transparency seems kinda like that with some texture to it. The problem I have with both of these is it always looks greyish and not textured. To me the ideal would be dark grey and textured, black and textured or plain black.
i like the contrast of the original, in both material and in color, and i'm sure it will grow on people like the cybertruck
I think it'll grow out of people actually. Most people don't care now because they are excited about the Pyra becoming real. I'm excited about the Pyra becoming real but I have to push for the last detail.
Just focus on the production for now. It's impossible to make everyone happy in any case.
How much focus waiting for parts and companies requires?
I don't understand why you people always want to tell people what they must not do, especially if it doesn't take anything away from you since it doesn't cause delay.
If you're seriously considering crowdfunding such a thing you should probably make a new thread for it. You'll get better visibility that way.
I wanted to see if there was at least some interest before making a thread.
But first I need to know if we can get the crowdfunding managed.
@EvilDragon I don't want to force anything on you but it seems easy that way and you can make profit. I'll totally understand if you don't want to and sorry to bother you.
I figured 3 way to get things done easily if you don't have a better plan:
- I create a post with a poll and manage to get at least 30 people to vote that they want to buy one, then you create a preorder for the logo plates and If you get enough you order them.
- You create the preorder directly and advertise it in a newspost.
- You make people chose between the dark and light plate for the black case as default to be produced, if people chose the dark version the remaining grey plates are used for futur grey cases or sold.
Again if you don't agree it's ok and thank you for the hard work on the Pyra.
