STL_ArchMadness Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 color scheme is awful for this conceptI find the complete oppostite. It's a very unique color scheme that greatly suites the idea http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/98633-2014-nfl-concept-expansion-series-dallas-cowboys/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wn3 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I would suggest replacing the F-117A with a Boeing or Boeing related aircraft. Boeing was a significant partner on the F-22 and contributed to the design of the B-2 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean F&F Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 I would suggest replacing the F-117A with a Boeing or Boeing related aircraft. Boeing was a significant partner on the F-22 and contributed to the design of the B-2 as well.I thought about those, but I liked the use of the F117 since it was a fighter (even if its not an air to air fighter) as opposed to just a bomber like the B-2. Another reason was I think the F-22, as steathly as it can be, still looks like a normal jet alone the lines of F15s and F16s where as the F117 has a very distinct shape that makes it easy to recognize.Another reason is the nickname, the Nighthawk. I haven't made a secondary logo for the shoulders and couldn't think of one but I thought about making a hawk. It's kind of a nod to the Seahawks and still makes sense in the scheme of things. https://fandfsports.wordpress.com/Hockey Uniform Templates (Gimp/Photoshop) http://seanff.deviantart.com/gallery/52790653/Devious-Folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capeaters Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Great concepts! Emerald green can be a bit darker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujubeans Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Besides alliteration, why "Stealth" for Seattle, and why the F-117? There's no connection between the Nighthawk and Seattle at all. If you want to use the Stealth moniker, I would instead use submarine imagery to connect it to the city and go with the nautical theme of other Seattle sports franchises.

If you want to use the Stealth moniker, I would instead use submarine imagery to connect it to the city and go with the nautical theme of other Seattle sports franchises.I chose the F117 since I think its one of the first things people think of when they think of stealth, especially stealth aircraft. It may not have a direct connection to Seattle, but it fits with the aviation history of the city.I created a secondary logo that I would use as shoulder patches. https://fandfsports.wordpress.com/Hockey Uniform Templates (Gimp/Photoshop) http://seanff.deviantart.com/gallery/52790653/Devious-Folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujubeans Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 But Lockheed is headquartered in Burbank, and the F-117 is already a retired plane. Aesthetically I think you have good designs, but it feels like you're trying to shoe-horn in a plane you like into the concept rather than building a hockey identity that is distinctively Seattle. Certainly your choice, I guess, but it creates a lot of dissonance between the logo and what it's (ostensibly) representing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 color scheme is awful for this conceptwhat exactly is so awful about it? its a very bright green and colors that bright aren't seen in the NHL but why is it awful? Its a change up of the usual and i like itThe green is gaudy and unattractive. And this is coming from someone who loves green. That particular neon shade is always going to look tacky regardless of how it is applied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalPumaOcelot Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 for the white jersey,even though it takes out some of the pizzazz, you could go for a black on white look with green highlights, and i'd love to see a green jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
