Supernova Concepts Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I've been lurking the boards for a while, but I decided to join today and share some of my work. I wanted to take the flags of cities, and use the colours in soccer kits (somewhat inspired by Ilfhockey's NFL Flag concepts. The colours are used in the home and away, then the third is any colour I felt like using. So first up:Toronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 It looks good but some things...What's the crest?And please use a different number font, that's too bold and big for a soccer kit. Conrads got plenty to choose from.Interested to see what's coming up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernova Concepts Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 So I took timber wolf's advice, and used a new font for the numbers (which I got from Conrad). One question, should I put the flags on the uniform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thecargeek Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You're not off to a bad start. I'll give you some pointers:Some soccer national teams do not have a crest, and so they would literally place their flag as the badge instead. You must have a badge and so either you make one or simply put the flag on top of the heart, it's important to have a connection to the team, and a badge is a part of it.Secondly the sizing of the logos, the Nike logo should just be scaled a bit down, compared to the sponsor. Bank of Montreal looks too small.For the back, the number and name should always have the same font for consistency. Lower the name just a bit and bring the number a bit closer too. I don't know if it's the font but the number looks too narrow, in contrast to the jersey.Finally on the away it would be nice to see a blue or red Nike logo, and the third to be orange on the jersey and that settle yellow on the shorts. Also make the number and player names to be the same colour.Fix those and you're off to a great start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Concepts Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Thanks a lot for the tips, CarGeek. I believe they helped quite a bit.Here it is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Concepts Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Next up: MontrealMontreal's flag has many different colours, and I wanted to stay away from using red as much as I could in the home and away kits (I find red is used in many flags). I decided on purple and green because it is a different but cool colour combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmoe12 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Good start here, but I think you're missing a huge opportunity on Montreal to have a quartered kit with the symbols from the flag I think it would be perfect as an away kit    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmoe12 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Yeah, but I would remove the flag. It seems redundant now    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernova Concepts Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Here is the next one:CalgaryThe Calgary flag only has two colours, red and white, and white is used in basically every flag, so I needed to add another colour. I know that the yellow I added now makes it look like a Flames-soccer crossover, but it I think it still works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRockyTop16 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Very good so far! Just one question, why is Bank of Montreal sponsoring Toronto and not Montreal? All credit goes to their respective creators (Veras and hawkfan89) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wackyriderfan14 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I think BMO should be Montreal and Air Canada Toronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Concepts Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 I chose BMO for Toronto because they would most likely play at BMO field. And Air Canada's headquarters are located in Montreal, but if it bothers you guys, I can change it. And thanks for the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timberwolf Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Usually the away, or "clash", is a different design than the home. Maybe use Anaheim Ducks-style striping or something like the flag is like. Looks good though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I'm not Canadian (or even close) I didn't know BMO Field is in Toronto. My bad. By the way, Ottawa is gorgeous!
