EvanBirchfield Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I really want to be nice and give come C&C but these are probably the worst concepts I've ever seen.Don't listen to this form of critism. That's not even close to being accurate.Great work, but still, way to much Titans. You're trying to combine two primary colors and it's just not working, but it's not 'terrible' execution, it's just not a good idea to combine the two colors. These uniforms will always look like the Titans as you are using the double blue look without much yellow. I'd choose a blue and yellow combo and maybe enforce the other blue as a Tertiary color.How can you with a straight face say these are 'great'? They are awful.This concept may not be ideal to many, but I've seen many concepts that are much, much worse.Like thishttp://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/97398-npba-fictional-basketball-league/Lol I actually posted on that one saying they looked like a Rec league. I'm not trying to be mean, just the color matching makes the uniforms look nasty (and not in a good way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tifq76 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Ok all I'm hearing a lot of the same thing - This weekend I'll do a major overhaul, probably with a new template too. I'm going to cut back on the powder and make it a tertiary and use the yellow as a secondary. I think this will solve both the loudness and the Titans problems. Thank you for helping me out - at least those who did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tifq76 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Overall, I think the jerseys are quite busy. I think you need to pick one of the blues and just use the other blue as part of the accents. Would be kind of cool to see a gold pants alt. That was a core part of their identity with the white helmets from '66-'73. Check it out.http://www.gridiron-uniforms.com/images/1971_SanDiego.pngI doubt I will take the yellow that far. Never liked the yellow pants for the chargers or really any team. Only the packers can really pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great is a bit of an exaggeration, but as a poster that has never published any of my terrible concepts, I don't have much room to call people's designs out. Constructive critisism is what I gave him, as well as positive motivation as I can tell he has potential at making this a good concept. If you publish a concept and somebody calls your work "the worst on the forum," what is that going to do? It's not going to make him want to fix his concept, it's going to make him want to quit making concepts all together. They're by no means anywhere close to being that bad.

DL Watt Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I think maybe if you used a larger template we could have a better understanding of what your goal is. I think its a good start, just some tweaking here and there and you'll have a nice product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I really want to be nice and give come C&C but these are probably the worst concepts I've ever seen.Comments like this don't help the artist improve. It's fine to think something is bad or needs work, but if you're going to post, you should provide specific areas that you been could be done better, or a certain technique that the artist needs to improve on, or some reason for the opinion. Again nothing is wrong with thinking it's the worst (though I think that's a bit of an exaggeration) but help him make it better.

Tifq76 Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Ok, I redid the unis. A little bit earlier than I said but I think they look much much better. So many changes I am not going to list them all. A little unsure about the alternates still. Maybe I should try more yellow and less navy - more of a modernized throwback look? Tell me what you guys think, I think you'll like them.Home set:Away set:Alternate Set: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailGoldPants Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Those are much better. It's a solid set, my only critique would be to get rid of the gold on the away pants. IMO, the dark pants would look good with just the bolt and no color around it. Check out my site at stevebcreations.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot cleaner, I wish the Chargers would use only two colors though like Powder Blue, Yellow, and White. Never been a big fan of that dark blue that a lot of teams use.

Tifq76 Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 I like the Navy, it was one of their original colors. My problem with their current set is it doesn't use their color pallet enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking it off the shoulders and the pants.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
