    Given the sweeping changes in the college football landscape right now, this realignment you have makes more sense since schools are much more geographically close to each other. As for the uniform concepts? Let me just say that these all look FANTASTIC! Here are a few highlights I wanna point out: I don't know if it's just my eyes, but I love how K-State's shade of silver approaches into the lavender territory, without actually using lavender. Since red is one of the primary colors for the Jayhawks, I wish that there's a red alternate jersey. However, that powder blue set looks unique; white could've been added as an accent. It sucks that TCU has let go of the frog-spike decorations on their jerseys; the concept you have for the Horned Frogs is a great touch, without getting too overboard like their previous set. I feel like you should have used mustard yellow instead of old gold for Mizzou, to distinguish them from Colorado. Awesome job and I'm looking forward to your next concepts!

    Hmm, your guess is as good as mine...

    ALLEGIANT AIR Allegiant Air has gone to a colorful livery in recent years, even if it's still predominantly white, but compared to the airline's original livery, this is a HUGE improvement. Since the livery has also been the source of inspiration for some NASCAR Cup Series paint schemes—in particular, Ty Dillon's #42 car back when he was driving for LEGACY Motor Club (then known as Petty GMS)—I applied the same design concept for my home and road uniform concepts. The giant sun logo on the tail is applied on the front portion of the helmet and extends all the way to the sides, a la Birmingham Thunderbolts from the old XFL. Going back to the original livery I'm referring to earlier, it was really a plain design to translate into a football uniform, with the only redeeming element being the logos and the stripes.

    RYANAIR Ryanair's current livery looks decent and professional—very uncharacteristic of being a low-cost carrier. I love the fact that both blue and yellow are evenly distributed on a white fuselage. While it would be easy to translate the livery design onto a football uniform, I thought that the output would be somehow bland. And so, I added 4 sublimated lines on the sleeves to evoke the strings of the airline's harp logo. Both blue and white jerseys feature blue sleeves and yellow sleeve cuffs to maintain the colors of the harp strings and Ryanair's logo. Before Ryanair applied its current—or other variations of—blue-tailed livery, the airline sported a simple all-white livery. However, I elected against using that particular design in favor of a rarely seen retro livery, featuring multiple blue and white lines capped off with a yellow outer outline. I went with a blue base for the jersey since most of my throwback alternate jerseys I made so far are white. @FCMacbeth, since you suggested Ryanair, this one's for you.

    JETBLUE After a long time, here's my latest post: it's JetBlue this time, as suggested by @TheAnt755. Since JetBlue has A LOT of tail designs to choose from, I decided to go for "A Defining MoMint", the first design sporting the new all-blue livery. The pattern found on the sleeves and the pants consists of several "Mint Leaves"—shapes that are prominent in JetBlue Mint, the airline's business class cabin. As a tribute to the older white livery template, we also got to have an all-white version. JetBlue was founded in 1998 and started operating in 2000, and yet, it still found a way to incorporate a retro livery. Nicknamed "What's Old is Blue Again", this kinda reminds me of that OTHER retro Lufthansa livery—the one from the 60's. In that sense, we can consider the alternate uniform as a fauxback.

    Hi everyone! I know it has been weeks since I made my last concept. That's because I put my attention on other important things recently, and I'm feeling both excited and nervous these past days because I'll be heading to Japan for a solo trip, in which I'll be hopping on one of the airlines covered in this forum. Don't worry, I already have a design for JetBlue and I'll just put the numbers and logo on the uniforms. It will just take a while before I can finalize that. I would like to apologize for the extended delay, and I hope I can get back to this project. Thanks for all your appreciation!

    Thanks for all these suggestions! @TheAnt755, before your suggestions came in, one of them is already in my backlog, that being JetBlue. I haven't made a concept set as I'm typing this message, but it would be interesting which design shall I go, though I'm really in favor of JetBlue's all-blue livery. As a spoiler, I'll be using the design of "What's Old Is Blue Again" for the alternate uniform, since it's a throwback-inspired livery. @Bomba Tomba, since Air Koryo sports both the old and new liveries, I'm thinking about which should I go for. @Blindsay, Air Jamaica might be the first defunct airline in this series once I'm finished with that carrier. And which Eastern Air are we referring to? Is it the old Eastern Air Lines from the US? @FCMacbeth, yep. As much as possible, I would like to finish the full-service carriers first,. However, I've sneaked in some LCCs in between, so let's see what happens next.

    Since I'm running out of ideas, I'm now open for airline suggestions! There are things that should be kept in mind, though: Airlines should be either mainstream full-service or low-cost carriers that all serve international destinations. I'll be limiting this forum to only passenger airlines, since cargo carriers have limited livery histories. I'll also be open to create concepts for defunct mainstream airlines such as Northwest and Continental. Just make sure that the defunct airline suggestions serve international destinations too. Please take note that designing uniforms for a certain airline may vary depending on the livery design, there are the simple ones like Japan Airlines (which take a short time) and there are more complicated designs such as Egyptair (which take a longer time, depending on the complexity of the design). Thank you for your appreciation of this forum topic, and I'll be looking forward to your comments and suggestions!

    SCOOT Singapore Airlines' low-cost subsidiary also knows how to make itself unique among the rest, just by looking at its livery. I took the curved design found in the front part of the fuselage and made it suitable on a football uniform, while the curves on the empennage and the tail are found on the helmet and socks. Just a tidbit of an info, the usual shade of yellow used by Scoot is different from what's applied on the livery, and I chose the latter so that it's not that hard to read when paired with white. Don't worry, I applied black as an accent color on the NOB and the numbers. For the throwback uniform, I decided to honor Tigerair, which merged with Scoot in 2017. The tiger stripes from the tail is the main design element throughout the uniform, and the outcome looks something that the Cincinnati Bengals can wear.

    AZUL BRAZILIAN AIRLINES Now we head to Brazil for one of its full-service airlines. I know almost everyone will compare this to the 2010-2016 Utah Jazz uniforms, essentially a football uniform version of it. The explanation behind the striping is the overall design of the airline's livery, where navy blue is surrounded with yellow inner striping and green outer striping—thus making it similar to the look of the Jazz in the early to mid 2010s. And if you'll look closer, inside the sleeve stripe is a sublimated version of Azul's logo. On the other hand, I consider the alternate uniform that I made as a "national pride" uniform since I based it on the airline's flag livery.

    JETSTAR Since Jetstar right now has a few subsidiaries, I'm focusing on the mainline carrier that's established in Australia. Sure, this airline's livery is plain and simple, but the choice of colors is out-of-the-box. And so, grey is the home jersey color, while the orange jersey will be worn on the road. The color combo definitely reminds me of the BC Lions or Oklahoma State football. Speaking of Oklahoma State, that was one of my inspirations behind the all-black (except for the helmet) alternate uniform. Well actually, I first thought of the Detroit Lions' new black uniform, and thought, "hey, I can make one for Jetstar!" The orange helmet is taken from a livery variant in which the tail is orange. Since the livery is quite simple, there's no striping throughout all three uniforms. The unique design element for this concept set would be the sublimated star logo on the sleeves.

    EGYPTAIR When I looked upon Egyptair's current livery, the tail design alone made me intimidated, since the gradient is quite intricate. Anyway, the home and road uniform designs are straightforward. And by straightforward, I mean, I just literally translated the livery design into a football uniform: tail design to the helmet and front fuselage logo on the sleeves. A random curved, tapered stripe based from the front fuselage logo adorns the sides of the pants. The airline's livery for much of the 90's was the basis for the throwback uniform. Red was one of the primary colors of Egyptair at the time, and it looked great along with gold on the white background of the fuselage. I then applied the same curves from that livery's tail design to the helmet, and it evoked an old-school look, much like what I did with my Garuda Indonesia and Southwest Airlines throwback uniform concepts.

    SOUTH AFRICAN AIRWAYS When it comes to my home and road uniform concepts for SAA, it's all about the tail logo—from the helmet, to the jerseys and the pants, all the ways to the socks. Since the current livery is generally just a Eurowhite scheme, I had to make the uniforms distinguishable without the helmet and the socks, so I added the triangles from the tail logo and made them sublimated on both the jerseys and the pants. And since blue has been generally one of the main colors of SAA throughout the airline's history, I chose it as the primary dark color for the clothing. In the case of the retro alternate, though, it's the complete opposite, as orange takes the lion's share in the color distribution. This is heavily influenced by the tail color on the airline's old liveries, specifically on the most recent orange-and-blue paint scheme. For a change, I positioned the stripes on the shoulders, since most of my concepts have stripes positioned on the sleeves. To mark the special occasion, all three uniforms feature SAA's 90th anniversary logo on the helmets' front bumper and on the front of the jerseys as a patch.

    KENYA AIRWAYS The flag of Kenya is basically the inspiration behind the tail design on Kenya Airways' current livery, which is the primary design element found all throughout the home and road uniforms—from the helmet to the jersey sleeves and onto the pants' side panels. It's quite a straightforward explanation, and the only thing I would add to it is my decision for the color choices on the socks: red socks when paired with white pants, and black socks with red pants. For my retro alternate, I chose the particular livery featuring cheatlines containing all three colors from the flag of Kenya. The light grey pants had its traces from that livery's silver fuselage belly.

    Yeah, like I said in the beginning, the number one rule I set in this series is to translate airline liveries into football uniforms as much as possible. I've already imagined a mint jersey, and unfortunately, I did not like it. So I dropped it in favor of black.
