the color around the wing on the last set looks really good....kinda matches the frame. incorporate more of that in there and loose some of the blue.
keep the 450RI on top... looks good.

just sayn!!!!!

I like the graphics but I'm not sure on the colors. Something just doesn't seem to gel with the rest.

Poor job photoshopping, but maybe you see?

The other one I like, but still something about the colors.

Thanks for the comments. The color scheme has been changed a little, but the reason behind it was to keep the oem 87 white, blue, red but with a newer style/twist to it. Have something else totally out of this spectrum I think we'll see soon too. Not going to print yet..

Personally i think it might be the red thats messing with the look. maybe try the goldish color in place of the red?

looks great though

I agree. Either replace the red with gold or the blue with gold and take the sticker off the shrouds.

Or, maybe add a little red somewhere in the chassis to blend it. I actually like the third decal (first photoshop one) with less going on.

The suggestions are good. These aren't put up in any order, but if you saw the progression you would see we started with more and have slowly pulled some color out.. My personal favorite is the third, but I think now after seeing the photoshop.. thanks by the way, it helps alot! I don't think it should fade towards the back. I really started this with no idea's in my head, I think its evolving well.

I was thinking replace red with gold then add some kinda of strip/ carbon look to the sections behind the kick start indent so the fade doesnt look as extreme.

I'm liking the way the small amount of gold in the graphic is still able to show

I think the 3rd one matches the theme the best. Do you have ANY blue at all on the quad? That's my main reason for liking that one the best, the others have too much blue. It's my opinion (and only that...an opinion) that you shouldn't have any colors in your graphics that you don't have some of on the quad somewhere. It just looks out of place to me. That's why I only have blue, black, and silver in my graphics (except the sponsor logos) because those are the colors all my PC is.

Hontrx265r : I like your design, however IMO the gold that you chose for your base dictates your overall graphic choice. You can do something like you have and that's your choice, but to me the subdued gold needs to be reflected in the overall graphic.

Attached is yours: It looks good, but just doesn't look quite natural.

I know it doesn't pop like your colors but it looks more like it belongs - to me, but it's your quad. You wouldn't have to use this, it's just an idea.

I understand where your coming from, but there are subtle ties in the graphic to the gold, Something that you don't really pick up when you photoshop, but I think its enough to pull it together. What you did imo over powers it. Thats what your conditioned to because in the past graphics have always been very standard like that. Have to go out on edge a little to be different. I think this color scheme looks awesome.

I agree 110%... there is small hints of gold in those graphics that tie the frame into it. I like the black on the rear portion too.
