I apologize for not quoting your post in my previous message... thanks again for all your work...on this creative collaboration.  JimIs this what you had in mind?  Sorry it takes awhile to find time to do alot this week, much going on.  I also think the logo on the caseback is a neat idea.  Would anyone like me to post it on the previous thread as well?  Maybe I will so the ideas are all in one place?

I should also note a couple of things.  I like the dark green (British Racing) color my self, but it's not exactly the same shade in all my renditions so far.  Slightly off because I am eyeballing the color with a tool in photoshop.  Also, on this latest version the full body got strecthed a bit and I also slightly shrank the "500m" text as well.

I accept your offer and will make a design for the case back tomorrow and post sometime tomorrow. just for the sake of another design idea. I am not opposed to having it on the case back as I have done them in the past for others, but I happen to like the Benarus caseback the way it is, I think it is first class.

but I will create a Moray design tomorrow just for the Moray fans to see and give feedback.

Steve

Good morning Moray fans!

The Case Back - Here is my design, and let me preface by saying that I stand by the concept of "Less is More", I also like the saying "Just because you CAN, doesn't mean you SHOULD". That means that I am not suggesting we add a Moray logo to the caseback, I am only answering a challenge to back up what I was talking about and submit my own design.

The Green Dial - The dark green dial color is okay as a dial, I think it could be studied longer to pick a more unique shade of green, but it really has nothing to do with an eel color, if you search "Moray eel" in google and click "Images" you will see some light green eels, but mostly brown, white, spotted, giraffe colors, dark blue, grey.

Anyway, here is my caseback drawing. Below that you can see my rough drawing and vector line work, so that you know my work is genuine and I didn't just pull the image off the internet.

Enjoy! Your feedback is always welcome. Steve

HOLY MOTHER OF MORAY EELS BAT MAN !!!

That ROCKS !!!

Let's see if Ralf can gear up for this.    Polish the highlights, like the ORSA Monstrum, and that would really show the depth of your work.

COOL.... thanks Steve.

Come on guys...your killing me mistake.gif, I voted for the dark green with eel on the back and that seems to be winning.....I would rather not have to order another Moray, but if that combo wins my hand is forced and another will be on the way crap.gif

BTW, Steve the drawing ROCKS...would love that design on the back of the case!!!!

Very nice Steve!  I like keeping the logo on the back if one is to be used at all.  Any chance you can do a full body version of the Eel on the back?  I don't have software to make it look right like yours.

Well Crap!  Looks like I'm eat'n crow tonight for dinner.  I voted to leave the Moray alone, now I'm not so sure.mistake.gif  I can't say I like the Eel logo better than the Benarus logo but I gotta admit it looks pretty jazzy. ThumbsUp02.gif

Thanks Michael! I went with the head shot of the moray because they stay in their holes all day and if you dive in the day, that is all you will see. Also I can get details like eyes, nose, mouth and teeth, also skin pattern. The whole body would be hard to detail, and you would only see an eel like that if you go on a night dive.

I was certified Open Water 1 diver in 1989 (Age 13) NAUI, Open Water 2 in 1996 PADI
