Cushion Help

[Brewoz40]

Hey everyone, first time poster but I’ve been following these boards since my quest began almost 2 months ago. I’m so f%$*@*@g glad I found this site! I can’t begin to thank all of you for the wealth of info I have learned. Anyway…on to the important stuff..haha. I have narrowed my search down to GOG or ERD. I’m trying to find a real chunky looking cushion but have not found one in my price rage. Mark at ERD has found me .75ct, I, VS2, 8 main faceted that he believes is very beautiful, pic is attached. It’s not a chunky looking cushion but it’s definitely not one that has the crush ice look to it either. Here is a pic of the diamond. What do you guys think? If I’m really looking for chunky looking cushion, should I hold off? I believe Mark when he says that this a very beautiful diamond. Do you think it will be easy to tell that this is not a chunky cushion? Also, here are a couple of lincs of settings I was thinking, let me know what you all think. Thanks!

Its an 8 main thin(modern) cushion. To see the differences between the two 8 main styles take a look at this video http://www.vimeo.com/9188543
You have to be clear what you mean by chunky cushion if you mean the vintage style than the video above will make it clear they do look appreciably different.

See this thread of the two, one is a modern 8 main and one is vintage style 8 mian https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/the-shocking-final-diamond-choice-i-gave-to-my-fiance-which-one-would-you-pick.121154/
