I absolutely love the flashy look! I love color - too much black on the plainer (but still nice) design. And spanishflea - what you wrote: ". . . whip it out and wave it in the wind. We should start with a bang".  I had to read that a few times before realizing you were writing about a Zippo. LOL Crazyjo/Joanne |

Personally it's between the initial and the martini glass...wow now THAT's classy! It's amazing! Back to the first one though. I think that the flame covering the "G" should be in the back of the text, on a lower layer than the text. It would look better in my opinion. Truthfully I have would want both the martini glass and the first design on Zippos.

I haven't been through here in a couple days, it appears I missed a bunch. Your first design, Matt, and the martini glass are awesome.

I'm loving the dice, but a few things need to be fixed. The Flame over the "G". And some of the dots on the dice need to be fixed. To round to be on a angled surface.
Other than that, I get a big chuby just looking at it.

these are still concepts, so you can see where im going,
ill do a drawing off a real pix to get the pips and the perspective right, and a real lizard drawing to get the details and anatomy right.
expression 3 is still a little new to me

okay i got the dice fixed perspective and the pips (dots), fixed the flame behind the G (like few members sugested) looking at it i think i should rework the flames, and make the dice more rounded. also im working on adding some dimension to each of the dots. www.deviantart.com/deviation/22901255/ |

But someone's got to change. Spanish Flea |

A little confusing there Flea, but I think I know what you mean--black dot's need to be white, or the two white one's need to be black. Anyway, rounding the dice would be a good idea and maybe a little reworking the flames. Not too much in my opinion anyway. All in all it's improved.
