Bottle silhouettes

This bottle is based on a Coca Cola bottle. It's a bit of a predictable choice for a soda beverage, but I wanted to give a more traditional bottle shape a shot.

This bottle is based on an Orangina bottle. I was thinking in the direction of a fizzy orange beverage for my product, and wanted to explore the Orangina's shape. The shape itself has a very fancy feel, like it contains an expensive liquor or maybe cologne. I'm not sure if this is the perception that I want associated with my drink. It also seems to give off a very retro feel, which might run counter to a beverage product that uses themes of astronomy and scifi.

My third design is based on an actual NASA space rocket, I believe from the Mercury program of the 60's. I wanted to see what a bottle that borrows from the shape of a space vessel might lend to the product, since I'm using a very spacey style for the product's design. Unfortunately, it does still give the impression of something very traditional, almost antiquated. Like maybe if I rub it a genie will come out. However, perhaps with a more appropriate color scheme and a well-designed label, the perception could be changed.

Concept for soft drink bottle
My idea for a soft drink bottle design concept would be to create a line of premium fruit juices that are named for their fruit's resemblance to different celestial bodies in our solar system. For instance, a pomegranate would be mars. An orange, with it's granular skin and orange color would represent our sun. The labels would be very simple, probably a picture of the fruit riding an elliptical path of orbit around the label against a black background and accompanied by whatever characteristics make the planet unique (moons, rings, the sun's rays). The dominant type would be elegant and modern. I can't decide yet if I prefer the bottle to be round, like that of the drink Orangina, or if there's another shape that's more appropriate.
