I love the new extended design, I may just have to pick one up and try it out now that it should fit my face a bit better.
Great job with the aesthetics :-D
So the Virtue Vio Extend has been announced for a while and per the agreement I had with them I had to wait for them to be out before showing my work off! Its a rare thing as an illustrator and artist that I get the chance to do product concept work. I was lucky enough to be approached by Virtue in this regard and extremely honored. Those guys where extremely great to me and I could not be happier that they picked one of my designs to base the Extend off of. You will see some differences from the final product and I like what they did with it! Check em out! Also if you like what you see, check out my other stuff at www.tfdpaintball.com!
The original request was to have something inspired by a car front.
I looked at the grills of several before going to do this one. you can see the paneling by the earpad snap has been dropped and some further line refinements made.
Then we started to loosen up a bit looking at different ideas
and this
Untill we settled on this
and now its going to be around the world like this!
The great thing about Inception designs is that it builds a community where all our attributes can come together. I don't consider myself a "maker" or a tinkerer but I was proud to offer what I could to making something that lasts more than five seconds on the eyes.
Thanks for viewing it!

Fire,
Thanks! I hear great things about them! Chris was telling me that voice transmission and breathability were amazing, and hopefully I will have one in my hands soon!

are they selling at world cup this weekend? or just announced?
Lx: Thank you! I have seen some vid work by a Hodge. Is that you? If so I dig it!
No I did not do the CAD work. Chris showed me some renders and I contributed to some refinements on their process work but they took it to their go to guy. I would not know where to begin in cad
As to wether or not they are selling it sounds like some colorways are selling at the tent and others will not be available until spring. I like the idea of another flexible mask being put into production.
Reaper: Thanks so much! I see you liking TFD on facebook. I notice every one because they are hard earned lol.

Wow, this looks great. I agree that the final iteration you did was the right choice for Virtue. I was not a big fan of the original vio, but I've changed my mind with the extend.
That is what I needed to pick one up to go with my Flex.
Nice work Sean!
