The pandora uses a sort of soft blue, and darker versions thereof for most of its marketing material.

It's a nice colour, but I don't think it should be reused for the miriad/pyra

What colour should its successor use?

or colours?

I quite like indigo (it looks higher-quality than the green+black use on some things, IMO)

...but then that's just me.

Are there any colours that obviously go with the names "pyra" or "myriad" ?

red perhaps? or orange?

Any thoughts?
 
Yeah. Red and Orange seems to fit for Miriad and Pyra. A combination of both would be very ugly.(i think)
So Red or Orange. When i think about it, i prefer red a little bit more.
 
I like orange, against a dark grey [#333]

That is a colour scheme I'm fond of when doing webs, grey background and orange accents

pyta?  :p

Well, for myriad I would use a white & light blue scheme.

For pyra, clearly orange and … something, grey seems to be nice.

@FZERO -> looks awesome!

jup, we should use warm colours. For the background a supporting gray is almost always my colour of choice! so...

+1 for orange on gray ; )

Post in colours if you can, so people get a general idea.  If you press the colour applet, and then more colours, you get a nice palette of things to chose from.

It would be useful to know about the production process of the case so that designs can be adjusted. Available colours, material, resolution, size constraints, etc.

The colour, albeit officially blue-ish on the current pandora logo on the actual pandora is solid black, or metallic gray depending on coating. Also its extruded, so it has a tactile side to it.

Marketing and logo have some differences in commercialisation/art which overlap somewhat. But also im thinking sound could be incorporated. I almost remember the sound of the rareware logo better than the actual logo on N64.

It played a "bling" and then spun around. So animations are also an area that can be explored.

I liked the solid orange. And the first rather runic lettering. The more vibrant colour is nice, but the gradiation just puts my mind to real fire and faux material somehow.

Fire is an attraction too, so it goes both ways.

Binky that looks awesome. I wonder if it doens't seem too much like a constant halloween, however. Orange tends to go with that. Maybe a shade of red would be better?
 
I'd been disliking reds and oranges because fire sounds overused, but now that Halloween has been mentioned I'm reattached to orange.  Orange and black, or red and black, preferably orange and black, sounds nice.  Autumny.

Bring the box up on the Y to make them all level perhaps? Although you'd probably then have to extend the tail and make it sweep right across to make it still hang down.


Although in some respects the tail is weird, as the R and the A are definitely upper case, while the Y looks lower case. I kind of like the sweep of the tail though. Dunno.


Edit: Though if you bring the Y up and extend the tail across, it's almost a mirror of the R. And the A is a mirror of the P with an extra leg, so the whole thing is almost symmetrical, which could be a nice way in to an animation.

Not sure how to get that 'Y' cube in line with the others though, short of having that character floating above the others...

Trying another one now actually...

Cubes in line, the tail of the [Y] hangs low, but I kind of like that it runs in line with that line on the [R]
