I think the AT800DE was the first predominantly green racket, followed by the Forza Ti550 VS, so it's a long bow to draw saying anything green is reminiscent of the ZF. Heck, it's not even the first matte racket. I still like green as an underutilized colour. My next favored option would be pearlescent orange.
Stealth all the way . I like the green colour itself as well but not the design . Top reminds me of a N90 and more green is not a bad thing .
Green on white + the "tri voltage" white areas? I don't know man, can't remember the AT800 or Forza looking like that. In anycase, just a suggestion, how about the minimalist having the single white panel instead of the stealth?
Um, that's what the Stealth is - the Minimalist with one white panel instead of two. I'm still waiting for the quote from the manufacturer....
Now meet the ugly cousin Whilst you are waiting for the quote at least let me drool over the Stealth in full (or better yet, use it for the next Meteor based clone)
@Maklike Tier - that's a sweet looking racket. A true beauty. I think I like the white portion (at 7-8 o'clock) just for the brand name and green for the other side (4-5o'clock). So that the white portion will always be the signature graphic defining White Label. Right off the bat...you'll know it's a White Label racket. Still don't like the brand name though. It just doesn't roll off the tongue very well like...Yonex, Victor, Li-Ning, Kason, etc. And if you think globally...I don't think the name White Label will catch on. I hope I'm wrong and wish you success in your new business adventures. Kudos to you for having the guts to do something like this.
^^ Agree with CD. It'll give it asymmetry which will make it stand out among so many other rackets. Kinda like Z Slash's asymmetry. And the White Label name may carry unnecessary racial connotations in this day and age.
I'm just wondering why did you put the model as Kanabo when I saw it, I thought it was Kanebo (which is a cosmetic brand.. why the heck someone use cosmetic brand as a racket model?) or associated with placebo.. now I know Kanabo is a word in Japanese that means a type of weapon
Whichever way you look at it, you can't please everyone with colours, graphics, names etc so honestly, I'm not even going to try. You can always find something negative about a brand name if you look hard enough. I mean, Li-Ning sounds like 'Leaning' in English which means 'about to fall over'! Yonex sounds like a medication you put on cold sores. People just get used to brand names, so in my eyes what really matters is strong graphics and a strong logo, which I definitely think the White Label has. I have tried a few asymmetrical designs and tried to make the while panel more prominent - that's where the Stealth design really shines - but I do agree with CD and Visor that perhaps I need to work on some more asymmetrical versions to see if I can make it work.
That true white label thing would make it look even better . By all means proceed with the lime, the 305 range is not my cup of tea anyway ...
