Liked several of your ideas.   I wish you had a way to vote for more than 1 profile at the end.

Many thanks for your valuable input and vote of confidence. The early responses are trending very differently than I thought they would. I hope more people will share their input!

Pre [IC] on Several Colorways

While I like some of the colourways, not too keen on an preIC and in away "claiming" colours.


Just seems like a throwing things against the wall and see what sticks.

Minty looks too much like GMK Mint Dolch which Drop still has a ton of during their recap runs.

I appreciate your feedback.  :thumb:

Essentially I am throwing things against the wall and seeing what sticks. Didn't feel that was a bad thing but can see how it can be viewed that way. I did a typical IC https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=101307.0 and felt I significantly missed the mark. I honestly felt like I had all of these designs, plus a few others I weeded out, and didn't feel my tastes aligned with the majority of the MK community. I went this route to focus my efforts going forward. The results so far have been enlightening to me and haven't gone at all the way I expected. Several I thought would rate well have tanked. Angler, which I thought would be seen as more of a gimmick is currently the community favorite.

As for "claiming" colors - I don't lay claim to anything I've proposed. If someone wants to take something I've started and run with it I'm good with that. I kinda felt like I was opening myself up to loosing "claim" to these colorways by throwing them out there.

Also, results of the survey are open for all to review and I intend to publish them here when I close the survey so hopefully the info will be helpful to those that may want to run with some of the color combinations I've proposed.

I don't see anything wrong with what you're doing here, personally.  We all know there is no "claiming" a colorway in this community.  We've been over it quite a few times.  If you don't want to help the dude, don't take the survey. 

I hope you are able to gauge interest and make a set from some of your ideas.  GL  :thumb:

OMG I so need the Koi Pond. White, Orange, Blue = WIN.

I'm fairly new here but I've never seen this color combination yet. Anyone?

I was like this too, made a bunch of colorways without really committing to any. The advice I can give is that this probably won't lead to anything, imo you should focus on one YOU want the most and commit whole heartedly with renders and everything and see where it goes. While your previous ic was along these lines, it wasn't really "high effort" which I suspect is why people didn't take it too seriously.

Best of luck!

Thanks. Yeah, I was a bit tentative with the Tokamak IC if I'm honest. The next round of whatever I put forward will be all in.

I see no problem with what he doing either.
The more people in the community we have willing to come up with new ideas the better it is, and these ones look awesome.

Thanks a congrats man!

Personally not a big fan of any of these. The minty one is nice but probably not one I'd buy. If you're only going to proceed with one set then maybe designing some novelties for it once you've narrowed it down might bring more interest. Best of luck!
