Design's looking really awesome so far! I'd love to have a red one, personally. The blue wheels aren't really working too well for me though, I'd prefer to see them gray, perhaps.

I second that. Preferred the wheels to be more neutral.

Noted. I'll get our very accomodating designer to make them a dark grey ok? We're on design #8 so CrystalFiveMT was been really great about incorporating any of my "bright ideas"! Keep those suggestions coming folks! I'll be putting up a poll for you to vote on. We're on design #8 but I'll put maybe 3-4 up for your consideration. He can also perhaps get different color options up for you to look at later on today (depending upon his schedule).

Along those lines, what colors ARE you considering (main body color)? I've heard blue and red so far, anything else you'd be interested in? Since the design was done in Illustrator, it is a simple matter for CrystalFiveMT to change colors now and even remove coloration altogether to get just an "outline". Any suggestions for the line colors?

mm my car is purple but I don't think that would look good. Flat purple is boring and you just can't capture the brilliance of the color in print (or pictures meh!).

Probably just go for an outline look. Or maybe grey or the orange if I want to be loud.

Well I like the orange version the way it is with the blue accents, minus having the tires a dark grey. So you want VBP body color and greyish/black accents, right? Will pass that message along...

Another thing you guys/gals should know is that our friendly neighbourhood designer is off on holidays from tomorrow until Tuesday. He's trying to get pricing for actual production of the stickers too. Today is our day to finalize the design then he'll get the ball rolling (again) when he returns mid next week ok? Just want you to know that this project is proceeding but will have to be on hold while CrystalFiveMT takes a well deserved break....

For the outline, what colors would you like in the lines? White, silver, black...???

Vote on Pufferfit final design

Please register your vote here: https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/gaug...al-design.html

The main difference between the 4 options is position of the mouth and the "H" logo so I need some input. Also, the last design is more rounded but I prefer the body shape of the others. Tires will be dark grey as per your input....

the lineart of Fit's Dragon below is awesome. I don't know what color outline would look best for this pufferfit tbh. I think both black and white should be offered, and I bet the orange would do well too. I'd probably get a white and orange in my indecision.
i also have not put my fitfreak.net decal on yet because i don't know where to put it.

I looked up the "fitfreak.net" decal and it was offered in silver and white, with silver being the runaway favorite. We'll likely stick to the same 2 choices for the Pufferfit, to make thing simple, vs. offering in orange/red/blue/etc....UNLESS, of course, people clamor for a colored choice that is! Majority rules and all...

One more thing. CrystalFiveMT has opted to remove the "H" logo altogether due to concerns over copyright infringement. Producing an image based on Honda's "Pufferfit" could also potentially be an issue, but not nearly as much as having their main logo on the decal! So, I reposted edited pictures in the poll thread.

Are you still interested if the design is "H"-less or is that a deal-breaker for you? Just trying to get a general idea....

Our designer is totally flexible on colors used so it's all up to you! Sizing will be limited to 2 options (likely 1" and 4-5") and an outline-only version will also be available...

EDIT: Doing an outline only may end up being more trouble than it's worth. He'd have to redesign the image a bit and production costs will also be higher. IF people still really want an outline and are ok with paying more, then this could proceed. Just thought you should know this would incur additional costs.

Great! I figure most people won't care, but best to be completely sure everyone knows what they're getting. CrystalFiveMT was looking into production costs today and it looks good! When he returns next week, hopefully he'll have pricing and payment methods finalized to post here. Then we can get orders actually coming in.

Oh and don't forget to think about what colors/sizing you want because anything (well, ALMOST) is possible...

As far as colors, let's keep it to Fit colors. Let's not request something like burnt umber or something vague. Keep it simple.

CRYSTAL BLACK PEARL
BLUE SENSATION
TIDEWATER BLUE METALLIC
ORANGE REVOLUTION
BLACKBERRY PEARL
MILANO RED
STORM SILVER METALLIC
TAFFETA WHITE

Just so we're all on the same page, by "outline" do we mean imagine the orange ones I did without any color?

Due to printing/cost considerations unless one wants to order a 1 sq. ft sheet of stickers, I won't be tailoring each single sticker for each request. Instead, I will develop say, 1 sheet of red Pufferfits with blue eyes and grey wheels.

Once I finish all options, I'll post them here so it will be an easy multiple choice process. Makes it much easier for me especially.

To whet your appetites, I did this "Milano Red" "outline" version so you guys can see the possibilities.

What do you think?
