STL_ArchMadness Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hello everyone, I'm having a little lack of creativity in my NFL Redesign thread, and I needed something to take my mind off of that. (http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-okc-outlaws-vote-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series/) & also I just turned in my World Cup concept for @raysox's thread, so I had some time on my hands. Normally I wouldn't post this on here, but I've seen a couple threads with art like this recently, and I thought why not?So this is something I just thought of, a Johnny Manziel Heisman trophy. I'm thinking about doing this for other winners, recent & old, but at the requests of you guys. I think it came out pretty decent, but I would love some C&C from you guys on how I could improve this before I start some other ones.

St Louis Cardinals Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I think that you should erase all the team logos/uniform design to try and make the trophy a little more generic. #9 LSU vs. TCU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pianoknight Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Yeah, it sounds like each player gets a unique silhouette of themselves? Cool.Does Archie Griffin get the same pose twice? 5th in NAT.

MrWonka Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 If it wasn't for the awesome pose and tradition, that would be sweet if the actual trophy was of the person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clintau24 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I think it's a pretty fun project. Adds a ton of personality of each player to it. Surprised you didn't go with Johnny's money-sign though... "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I'm working on an RGIII one right now, for his own trophy.Yeah, it sounds like each player gets a unique silhouette of themselves? Cool.Does Archie Griffin get the same pose twice?ya, I just thought it was a pretty cool idea. The problem with this though is that the voting would have to have ended a couple months before so they have time to make the trophy. I haven't thought about Archie Griffin lol, I guess we'll have to seeIf it wasn't for the awesome pose and tradition, that would be sweet if the actual trophy was of the person. I was thinking the same, but maybe they could get the legit Heisman trophy, and this one?I think it's a pretty fun project. Adds a ton of personality of each player to it. Surprised you didn't go with Johnny's money-sign though...thank you. I thought about that, but in the end I settled for something that would portray him more as a football player, and I thought the trophy would look cooler with an action shot.I have 1 problem though...as I was saving the Johnny file, my GIMP closed and didn't save anything. So I don't really remeber how I did it. But I'm working, and Robert Griffin III is up next http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series-dallas-cowboys/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I like this idea. Manziel looks good, but RG3 needs to have the uniform from the season he won the Heisman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JwgreDeux Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Great idea. I'd love to see the Auburn winners, Bo Jackson, Cam Newton, and Pat Sullivan. Here are the statues Auburn has put up in honor of each:Bo JacksonCam NewtonPat Sullivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clintau24 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Auburn's statues are pretty awesome in real life. It was cool watching Cam walk by his own statue when he went to class. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
