Here’s the catch: The Gen Yo Logo, Essence, and BadA\*\* Art are SCRATCHED!!! Yep. 2hrs of scratch work. The BA art was the hardest, but, I was lucky to find a Ministar Pic on Ernie’s Website w/ a pretty straight side view 🙂 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/1/b/d1b5277492be7eca10798f8a9297d804d147ee88.png) The lines leading to the spike point were sort of necessary. It’s hard to make that w/o 3D effects, and I didn’t want them for that, since it was a Vexel. ---

I feel that the Essence in that styling doesn’t match the rest of the image at all. I do like that you made the BA graphic into a usable image for the background; did you vectorize it or just do it in PS? ---

I like it! I’d probably use it if I already didn’t have (the best) iPod background. ---

I do like that you made the BA graphic into a usable image for the background; did you vectorize it or just do it in PS? Scratched it in Photoshop. And, I felt a different approach was needed than a simple render of the Essence. The BG has a bit of refining to do, and it should look better 🙂 ---

I like the direction you took with the Essence, but it’d look even better if you made the General-Yo logo with the same styling. Right now they look like they belong on two separate themes. ---

V2 comes in 2 versions, 1. because, for some odd reason, I was feeling slightly patriotic, 2. because I felt It could use a revamp 🙂 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/2/d/02d573b4eb43000f18e0e6a1d5db4714388e4533.png) If you have to ask, don’t ask. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/f/6/8f625bb3396d52806d7859cac051c5e872d0bfc0.png) Got rid of the Digital Camo pattern, redid the Gradient, and adjusted the logo to fit the Essence Sketch more. ---

Yes. It matches the General-Yo feel. Having a General-Yo image without any sort of patriotic symbolism just doesn’t seem right! ---

To make the USA one more cooler IMO, try to make the halves not lined up perfectly to where it is a straight line. Make them more natural, like on the back half the lines are about 50 degrees more counter clockwise. ---

I agree with the above statement :🙂 Edit: But not 50 degrees, though. More subtle. ---
