OK Gadies and Lents, it's over. I will take the time to go over the submissions and decide upon runner ups and who the winner will be.

I'll try to decide as soon as possible.

i hope my idea counts for this.... it is fairly cheap to do...

i propose you make a rectangular inlay on the host. then have stickers made in your "kryton" font that say "kryton beast" have the sticks fit into the inlay. then pour in clrear polyurethane.

did i win yet? LoL

and the this logo i made is what i propose to put in the inlay.
also if you cant do the inlay. my logo can still be used but with out the gradient.:whistle:

The last 2 entries are NOT two tone and could not work.

You'll remember from grade school those scratch off papers. Black and you scratch it away to see the foil underneath.

This is how the engraving will work. You will scratch away the base color be it black, clear, blue, or whatever leaving a WHITE. On a clear anodized barrel this leaves clear with a white engraving. There is no room for other tones or colors. So the image that needs to be scratched away needs to be represented in black (printers print black not white) and it will turn it into white as the material is burned away. So to get a representation of what it will LOOK like, make a black background and everything that gets printed will be white. Then it will be inverted for the actual printing

so do you want us to invert our logo designs?

Ok thanks Kenom... the last two were concepts, and I only entered them as an idea, thats why they are unfinished.

Thanks for clearing that up though, I didn't know how the etching actually worked. Thanks!

Well, ok then... How fine grain is the process? If it's as fine as your bear picture, then you could use something like an ordered dither or Floyd Steinberg dithering to achieve whatever greyscale you want/need.

This image is a 100% monochrome image using Floyd Steinberg dithering

Or using an ordered dither:

You can achieve similar results:

So.... Applying an ordered dither to Bobhaha's concept work you would get this:
BobHaha.png

...which makes it perfectly acceptable since the image above is now a 100% monochrome image.

...and if this is possible with the process you use, then it opens the door for all kinds of other possibilities.

So is this even possible?

Thanks!

Yeah of course that would work. But bob didn't submit that.

Not many participated which was kind of a surprise.

EDIT: That's pretty cool about Floyd Steinberg dithering. I never knew the name of it but I knew of it.
