OK everyone, if Oakley was to release your signature model, what would it be and why? I think it would be neat to see what floats everyone's boat.

Here's mine:

Eddyc Signature Penny
Family: X-Metal
Frame : Carbon
Lens : VR28 Blue Polarized
Other : "eddyc" signature on right lens (POLARIZED on left lens)

Why? I think most would agree that X-Metal defines Oakley. Penny fits me best, and I love the Carbon frame on my Finito Juliet. VR28 Blue is a beautiful lens to look at and look through, plus it's polarized.

If anyone is a whiz with Photoshop, feel free to show us your creation, too!

Dann Signature Splice
Family: Jacket
Frame : FMJ Red Camo/Crystal Red
Lens : Ruby
Other : Vented lenses at sharp angles, blood pattern on Unobtainium.

Story #1:
The Splice is aggressive, but this takes it that much further. The year is 2007, and the world has become post-apocalyptic. Lil Jon died of an STD, and the fashion market was disbanded in favor of purposeful design. Wartorn landscapes are all that can be seen for miles. The odds are against you, but you have the ultimite pair of shades to match the feriousity needed to survive.

The Kingphilbert signature model would be as follows:

Frame: Monster Dog
Color: Blue Camo
Lens: Titanium
Icon: Create a Bronze Icon to more closely match the lens

My sig would be on the left lens with no Titanium etching. In fact, it may not even be my sig. More likely a small type logo similar to the Titanium etching.

I'd buy those.

Yeah, make a Jr. version and I'd buy it too.

The Monster Puppy. Umm... never mind.

Ed Chiu (eddyc - 8/24/2004 12:33:15 PM)

Hmmm, Monster Foxes, Monster Pugs, Monster Pomeranian.

Dann Thombs (Dann - 8/24/2004 12:55:38 PM)

I would also take them in the youth color Blue Translucent. Same everything else. Monster Puppy could now be a good youth idea.

Heh, I was just in the process of making a Blue Camo Dog. Oh well, I'll finish up Ed's and mine.

Sweet! You guys rock with the photoshop. Dann, thanks for creating my Penny.

I like what I'm seeing so far. Anyone else feel like getting creative?

Very awesome Dann. I was actually working on one for Eddy and figured you might do yours. It's good to be a Graphic Artist and have time to waste at work. I will try and do others for members tomorrow if this thread gets more posts without photos of what they want.

Nice! Great stuff so far :)
My signature model:

Leo Signature Juliet
Family: X-Metal
Frame : Titanium
Lens : 24K
Other : Romeo hammered earstems + red earsocks/nosebombs


**Added by kingphilbert, the Leo Sig' Juliet**

How are you guys doing that? Let me know, i have some CRAZY ideas!


Jeff Ogden (K2snow - 8/24/2004 5:20:25 PM)

List some ideas and we'll get them together for you. Just using photoshop.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 8/24/2004 5:25:44 PM)

i want to do it! Teach me!!! lol

Jeff Ogden (K2snow - 8/24/2004 6:01:34 PM)

Alright. A pearl Half Jacket, with Fire accents.

Also a Red/ White/ Blue 1/2 Jacket in the Flag graphic. 1

Fire Graphic Monster Dogs


**Added by kingphilbert, the K2snow Ruby/Flame Sig' Monster Dog**

You know te BLK Fade Doggle... Thats an awesome scheme.

This is a great thread, keep it up!!!

The final version of the splice came out much cooler than I had imagined. I think the Red Camo FMJ ended up being a lot nicer than straight matte camo. It's nice to scroll through the photoshop overlay properties :P

I'll tackle any of those ideas tomorrow after work, unless phil gets to it first. I agree this could be a very fun thread.

The only drawback is that I seriously want all these models now.

Dann Thombs (Dann - 8/24/2004 8:49:05 PM)

I so want the two Sigs I created right now too. If they ever start a BTO program that's exactly what I want.

I will see what I can create for others here. Remember, this is your Signature model so try and only list one for yourself.

Nice work. I'm glad this forum requires a login, or else we'd be starting some rumors. Of course it'd be fun to see these ideas get some excitiment.

Dann Thombs (Dann - 8/25/2004 10:37:27 AM)

If this can generate any level of excitement and someone from Oakley is watching... at least this way they see what we want.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 8/25/2004 10:47:40 AM)
------------------------------------------------------------

And it will be the Oakley Review Line. Hey, if some rapper that I've never heard of gets one, then so can we :)

I just caught it in passing (flipping Channels), Lil John must have had an MTV Cribs and it was on sunday. I didn't see his Oakleys but I think I saw someone in his house, or on the show, wearing White Monster Doggles with Black Icons. I never saw those on Oakleys site.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 8/25/2004 10:56:24 AM)

Thanks for making mine. It isnt the coolest thing, but you better bet it would sell. Keep the ideas coming! This Sh!t is TIGHT!!!

Jeff Ogden (K2snow - 8/25/2004 11:12:36 AM)

I think it's pretty cool. I wasn't ever able to wear the Straight Jackets w/Flames (too big) so I had bought the Dragon Optical Trap w/Flames. I would wear a Monster Dog with Flames though. But considering I lifted the flames from the Jacket I would enjoy a different pattern for final.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 8/25/2004 11:15:46 AM)

Do somemore with the Splice and Monster Dog. I think they need to build a Monster Pup, or something like it, for those you like the deep wrap frame but with less frame size!

K2snow's Sig. Frame

Frame- Splice
Color- Pearl/polish Alum/ Fire Icons
Lenses- Fire




***added by Dann *****

Yeah Splice needs some more colors. There's a million Straight Jacket's, Minute's and XX's, but only 5 Splice's. I'd definitley go for a few more options.
