Virginia is for vapers
I was kind of surprised not to see the cutout be a spade. For some reason that's what I had pictured.
Maybe this would be an awesome cut out for the Reaper iHy?
Ok I see the diamond now, at first it looked like a triangle, is there a estimated release date for this

Don't get me wrong - I think you have a valid point, and I will tweak the shape further when I do the final CAD file for production so that the top two side lines are longer, and it looks more diamond-ish. That's one of the reasons Fisty's proof of concepts are so valuable. We need feedback like this to give you all the best possible design. My original idea behind the diamond, was to put a little culture into it - the last thing I wanted to do was make it ANOTHER skull shape, as a skull without all the fancy designs is NOT a sugar skull, but just an ordinary skull :)

I do like the diamond concept, but agree, I didnt' take it as that in the renderings.
Can he cut hard edges up there? If so, taking the rounding out would probably solve it and make it much more obvious.
Reason I mentioned the spade, is sometimes that's used instead of the upside down heart without the "stem". Matter of fact, mine is that way.. :)

Or, and upside down heart with small circles cut below it. :2c:

The other option is the upside down heart that is used on the nose.

Okay the render for this new LE is iiiinnncreddddible!

I've been a long time lurker on this thread, quietly plotting my entrance into the iHybrid family...i think i found my way in! I'm not sure i can LIVE without owning one of these...

Showed the pic to my girlfriend, who has to suffer through me constantly showing her mod related things that she doesnt care about, and this time around she said "oh wow, i like that one! do you want it for christmas?" Did you hear that people!?? Please please please let the pre-order date on this beauty come soon...i wanna finally be a hybreed!

I think something along the lines of the black portion of the nose in this image would look wicked cool..

A spade would work as well for the cutout, but I like the idea of the diamond and then putting something in there. I know some local glass blowers or making a clear resin cast would be cool, but that is not something you all would do normally. I might do that after I get one, I hope this one is not until next month, have to get a chance to get the cash together first :)

Been spamming my instagram with all these new pics, people are loving it, asking if i am the seller lol......sent em all to the site. I NEED a Day of the Dead! Bad vaping day though, been having issues with wicking all day....seems on and off...do you guys usually let your tank run right down (liquid wise?) or do you top up at a certain level...

I like to top my tank back off once it reaches a little less then 1/4 full. :toast:

Faceless, this LE strategy is genius. Genius, I tell you! Let's just look at the last few renders released. Illuminati, Hell Raiser, Flower Power, 12.21.12, Sweet Medicine, and now, Sugar Skull. If none of those speak to you. You're dead.

Agreed. I'm almost happy that not all of them speak to me, or my wallet would be miserable.
That's the idea though, to be able to choose which ones we like enough to f5 on.

Love the new switch too, eagerly awaiting the hell raiser.
