mgdmhl Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 First of all, this is the 2nd concept I have posted but the first one posted was anonymous in the "Phoenix: Russell Athletic Competition Phase 3" (I was Iowa State). Clearly I wasn't the best in that competition but I got a few votes so that lead me to believe I was ready to start my own concept threads. Secondly, I didn't know what to call these so if you can think of anything else feel free to share. Lastly, thanks to Brandon Moore for showing me how to make the players like this in my request for how to make the ESPN College Football ads.On to the concept...I wanted to make something like these for the upcoming NFL draft to post on on social media as each pick was being made. So I made some of previous players drafted in the last few years to get some C&C. I'm not sure if I should add the player's position or draft year or something else.EDIT: These players listed below are all posted.2015 Draft picks start on page 4AJ Green (Georgia To Cincinnati)Alfred Morris (FAU To Washington)Allen Robinson (Penn St To Jacksonville)Andrew Luck (Stanford To Indianapolis)Anthony Barr (UCLA To Minnesota)Antonio Brown (Central Michigan To Pittsburgh)Bishop Sankey (Washington To Tennessee)Blake Bortles (Central Florida To Jacksonville)Bradley Roby (Ohio St To Denver)Brandin Cooks (Oregon St To New Orleans)Calvin Johnson (Georgia Tech To Detroit)Calvin Pryor (Louisville To New York[A])Cam Newton (Auburn To Carolina)Chris Borland (Wisconsin To San Francisco)CJ Mosley (Alabama To Baltimore)Colin Kaepernick (Nevada To San Francisco)Connor Shaw (South Carolina To Cleveland [undrafted])De’Antnony Thomas (Oregon To Kansas City)Demarco Murray (Oklahoma To Dallas)Eddie Lacy (Alabama To Green Bay)Giovani Bernard (North Carolina To Cincinnati)Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (Alabama To Green Bay)Jake Matthews (Texas A&M To Atlanta)Janoris Jenkins (Florida/North Alabama To St Louis)Jared Abbrederis (Wisconsin To Green Bay)Jarvis Landry (LSU To Miami)JJ Watt (Wisconsin To Houston)Johnny Manziel (Texas A&M To Cleveland)Jordan Matthews (Vanderbilt To Philadelphia)Julio Jones (Alabama To Atlanta)Keenan Allen (California To San Diego)Kelvin Benjamin (Florida St To Carolina)Khalil Mack (Buffalo To Oakland)Kyle Fuller (Virginia Tech To Chicago)Luke Kuechly (Boston College To Carolina)Manti Te’o (Notre Dame To San Diego)Marquise Lee (USC To Jacksonville)Mike Evans (Texas A&M To Tampa Bay)Montee Ball (Wisconsin To Denver)Nick Toon (Wisconsin To New Orleans)Odell Beckham Jr (LSU To New York[N])Patrick Peterson (LSU To Arizona)Randall Cobb (Kentucky To Green Bay)Robert Griffin III (Baylor To Washington)Rob Gronkowski (Arizona To New England)Russell Wilson (Wisconsin To Seattle)Ryan Tannehill (Texas A&M To Miami)Sammy Watkins (Clemson To Buffalo)Seantrel Henderson (Miami To Buffalo)Teddy Bridgewater (Louisville To Minnesota)Tre Mason (Auburn To St Louis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgdmhl Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Are you taking requestsI'm not trying to sound rude when I say this (and I know you're new here), but it seems like every time a new concept is posted the only thing you post are "Are you taking request?" and "Who's next?". It's ok to ask that but try to give some C&C first.I'm not currently taking requests but I might later. I want to try to get the top prospects for the up-coming draft ready for draft night. I'm going to do the first round and a few other popular players that get drafted in the later rounds of the 2015 Draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan O'Mac Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'd thicken the lines on the font for the Cook one a bit, and smooth out the Saints logo. Otherwise, I really like these. I'd love to see some more. I like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suplauren Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 That Sammy Watkins one is rough on the eyes. Maybe darken that blue to a navy. The Mike Evans one also feels lopsided, with all that blank area in the bottom. Finally, how does the Eagles one look with a silver BG and the midnight green as the shading? Might be more faithful to the team colors. laurenlogos.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoz851 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 They are all good. I'd say make the Jaguars teal on black instead of that gold color. I personally like the teddy bridge water one, I think the colors pop well. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be more faithful to the team colors.On the Watkins one; I wanted to use the 2 colors that are used the most in the logo so that's way its blue and red like that. I get what you mean with the Mike Evans one, the ball on the way right caused a lot of the extra space and the pants didn't come in as good as I wanted. I tried using silver(grey) in the background with the Eagles one but the player just didn't look right after, that's why I used the green and black. Allen robinson to the Jaguars pleeeaasseee?I have a Allen Robinson pic (without a background) from another project so I should be able to get him done pretty quick tonight. I try out many color combinations for each player on the background and for what ever reason they look better with the lighter color as the background. So your request with the colors will likely not look as good as you hope.Here's a Marquise Lee to Jags one I already had done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
