Fun Project in the works

[Xeno]

First things first, Many many thanks to @chaosgow for the help with getting this project even started and off the ground using his mad CAD skillz!! This could’ve never been possible without his help….!!!

Anywho I’ve been dreaming about a capped yo-yo with anime inspired engravings on it, since I feel like there’s a lack of anime in yo-yos
So I thought why don’t I make something instead of waiting for someone to make it instead.

So for specs

55mm Diameter
54mm Width
4.6mm gap
10mm axle
7068 Body and Cap
Grade 2 to rims

Definitely bigger but who cares right??

I have Kaiga Marine working the graphic that’s going to be on the caps! Here’s a rough sketch

Anywho please do leave any thoughts you have!

[chaosgow (Jordan Blofeld)]

54mm! The yo-yo I use is 43.75! This throw also looks very clean! Good job

[Xeno]

We have an update on the art, I hope this will be possible
This is the final sketch of the center and is just missing one or two small details

i wasnt expecting the rough sketch to turn into a genshin impact character

[Xeno]

This is just for the first one, I’m planning that later yo-yos will have a more general anime design or refernce other anime
Reason I went with Genshin is, well it’s something I wanted to see happen and thought it would be funny

[Xeno]

Final graphic design I believe

Wow! That looks amazing!!

[Xeno]

Updated renders

[Xeno]

After much pondering I think I officially have a name

The Umbrabilis Orchis

[Glenacius_K (Spinworthy Glen)]

Are you serious?

Catchy.

[Xeno]

Yes has to do with some of the character’s lore

[Glenacius_K (Spinworthy Glen)]

I see, but I’d recommend UO instead.

[kretzschmar]

This looks amazing, well done

[PeterVenkman (Gian)]

The design looks very interesting, but I really am not fond of the graphics. I guess I’m a minimalist kinda guy
Will you have a version without them?

[Xeno]

Yeah, if I ever do a preorder there will definitely be a non engraved version

[Xeno]

Update from fpm! Wooooo.!!!

[Xeno]

Color update
