officeglenn Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 So, more than three years ago (Whaaaaa? It's been that long?), I started up a concept series called The Provinces Project (<-- link to old thread). You can click on the link to go through the whole backstory if you want, but basically, I took the colours used for each province at the Canadian national curling championships and used those to make logos and hockey uniforms.I had always intended to keep the project going, but it wound up falling to the back burner for some time. But recently I dug out the files and finished the baseball portion. I've carried over logos, colour schemes and some striping patterns from hockey, and I'm trying not to overuse any one pattern or method. I did alternate jerseys for four provinces/territories during the hockey portion, and I've done four again here for baseball.Here we go again ...YUKON TERRITORYWhen I came up with the concept for the Yukon, it really was done with baseball in mind. I knew that split-letter Y would look fantastic on a baseball cap, just like the Toronto Blue Jays' lettering does, which inspired it. The green from the Yukon flag adds a nice little pop of colour too, but I tried not to overdo it.Let me know what you guys think. All the provinces are done, but hopefully I'll spread out the posts over the next few days here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jvhn177 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 You should move the script up curve a little more and put the wolf logo under it like the blue jays do with their logo. What a coincidence I just saw your previous thread yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADORConsidering I had used this sort of Northwestern stripe on Newfoundland's hockey jerseys, I was a bit worried about how to incorporate it on the baseball jerseys. But then I sort of stumbled up on using it as a racing stripe Γ la the Mets in the 80s. I think it works pretty well. I did modify the numbers a little bit from the hockey set because they aren't overtop of that stripe, so a predominantly white number on the white jersey didn't work very well.

lopernv Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Wow, the hockey one was fantastic so I'm looking forward to this. It's hard not to like Yukon's as a Jays fan. Β Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco1997 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Alberta looks good. Probably the most modern-looking of the sets you've posted so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Alberta looks good. Probably the most modern-looking of the sets you've posted so far. Yes, definitely. Alberta was one of the more modern sets in the hockey phase of the project, and I want to sort of keep the overall design aesthetic for each province consistent from sport to sport.QUEBECWith the colour scheme set out, Quebec was calling out for a powder blue set. But I did include a navy alt to balance things out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 NUNAVUTThe text on the front of the jersey is "Nunavut" in the Inuktituk language. I kind of lucked out that the colours and logos worked well on both white and grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco1997 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Another home run. Loving the pale powder blue on the Quebec set. May be my favorite one yet!EDIT: Hahahaha, you posted another set at the exact moment I was replying to your last two concepts. Pinstripes FTW!

KittSmith_95 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 All of these look really good. But I'd change the Light Blue font on the Navy Quebec jersey to White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco1997 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I would make the wordmark on the road jersey white. It's difficult to read and white would match the NOB. Otherwise, another solid set. Also, try darkening the gray on the BC road set. The color is almost indiscernible from the home uniform. For a second there I thought you'd accidentally posted the same set twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 NEW BRUNSWICKKeeping things super modern with N.B., and keeping text to a minimum because it's officially a biliingual province. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
