    • All White (let it wear into wear over time)
      7
    • All Cream (start out with something off white)
      4
    • Cream w/ White Bindings (match the inspiration)
      14

So I wasn't going to throw anything up on this until it was ordered, but I'm struggling on a decision for the color scheme. My inspiration image is this vintage Cooper set...

I'm going with a Passau Gen 2 Pro Pack (with some slight functional modifications) and am also trying to achieve a vintage look. I've come up the 3 renderings below... vote up top for which you like best and would like to see made. Subtle differences... but when you're dropping some $$$ on this I want it to be just right. Worth noting is that with the designs I created below, Passau did ask I use their type face on the logos, which of course will be fine. Thanks in advance for your help!!

All White

All Cream

I hate all of them but voted for cream with white bindings.

Also whats with the template? Did passau change their logo?

Illiterate curmudgeon... I stated in my original post "Worth noting is that with the designs I created below, Passau did ask I use their type face on the logos, which of course will be fine."

I actually removed their logo on the template and did it in another font myself to get a retro-ish feel. Their reply to my request was using their type face.

Wow, name calling. Great job.

I voted cream/white bindings fwiw. Too bad you can't use the modded logos, I'm digging the 60's mod Bauhaus typeface.

Thanks... i thought they we pretty good too. I can understand why Passau would rather use their own type face for it though.

In case you're wondering the font I used in my renderings is Bauhaus 93.

Would you consider white with cream bindings? I really did the two-tone look over the solid white or cream, but I also think the cream color is better used for accents rather than large pieces. 

I give you White w/ Cream Bindings... not real sure about it though. What do you think?

Hmm. Well, I say I like it better than all white or all cream, but that’s just me. I still think either of the two-tone options beat out the solid-color. But this is coming from someone with an all black C/A...
