I think its the airflow control ring that just makes it look odd on most Mods. I think the air flow ring is the only bit that has any sort of style . Loose that and its just an ugly blob of stainless . The top cap is the worst bit . 50% solid lump of useless which could have ether been made pretty or hollowed out more for more juice. I'm not keen on the knobbly bits on the airflow ring and can't really see the point of them. Would have preferred a smooth ring. I like simplicity in design. On its own I don't think the rose looks that bad, just it doesn't look quite right once put onto a Mod.

I think it looks fine on a stainless steel 4Nine. Or on the copper and brass Vanilla clone, though not as good as on the 4Nine clone. If Dropbox would notice the pics that should have got there by now I'd add a pic. Do you not think that air flow ring just looks completely out of place on that set up? Without it that set up would look fantastic.

If Dropbox would notice the pics that should have got there by now I'd add a pic. Looks decent on a longer 4nine . Looks a bit poo in actual 4nine mode though , more atty than mod .

Maybe its just me but I do not think the Rose looks quite right on any of these Mods? Rose on a Tree Of Life Rose on Slo' Jo Rose on Nemmy To be clear this threads purpose isn't to bash the Rose. Its so I may find a mod to frame it on so I may grow to love it.

I think they all look fine MarkS The fact the Rose fell out the ugly tree is irrelevant to me . It works great and thats what matters . The designers should take some lsd or something before the next release though . Make something that looks nice and dont waste internal space for 30 seconds more time on the lathe.

MarkS out of them piccys you put up the "Rose on Slo' Jo" is deffo the better of the bunch, finish wise the Rose looks better on the TOL but that is only going by the picture.

Yeah I think you're right. I like it better on my SS Chi-You as the ugly ass airflow ring on the Chi takes your eyes away from the ugly ass airflow ring on the Rose. No 18500 mode for the Chi though.
