3D Design Brief
We need a 3D metaphor that symbolizes "tuning". We developed an application that improves an existing software product and like to picture such enhancements/tuning. We thought about 2 pictures, one that represents the original software, and one that represents the tuned version.
For your information, the software we tune is a task-scheduler. It executes configured tasks at given events. We enhanced the user interface, added more feature and flexibility, so that now it looks cooler, has more horse power and it's more comfortable to configure.
As an example, we thought about the comparison between a Fiat 500 and the Abarth version, or a Mercedes and the AMG version, but it could be a simple computer case (server) and the according tuned version, or a common electrical guitar and a tuned version of it. Whatever comes to your mind, it should show the "base" version and the "tuned" version. The picture should express the improvements in appearance and power.
As our business is most likely in the machinery industry, something related to mechanic or IT stuff is welcome. Our customers are 3D CAD users, so a 3D model (3DS or similar) would be better in order "talk"their language and create more accurate rendering.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Hi guys, it's the first time we use designdcrowd. I just promoted to project to "committed project", as most of you requested and i understand that is more interesting to you to work on a committed project. I also extended the deadline to next sunday, so you have a bit more time to surprise me. We look forward to post more and more project on this platform, if this project goes well.
so, now price and time are set. I look forward to be impressed!!
ciao
