NoE38_Concepts Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Loving the gems redesign, especially the logo. I prefer Generals and Ice. @noe38concepts (Instagram - Twitter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Good start so far. I'm sad that the Moose aren't included in this, but maybe you can come up with an idea for them down the road, either a Manitoba or Minnesota version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulv! Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I'd prefer Generals and Ice! This thread is awesome as always are your works! My only concern is about the roadrunner outline. I see your point on doing it of the same color as the darker brown shadow on the jerseys, but the outline is too close to the roadrunner inside color in my opinion.

Guest darkpiranha Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 LOVE the Gems. For obscure reference fun, you should have a fifth jersey where the logo is a hologram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moser316 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Saginaw Gears, as Flint was the Generals for most of their IHL existence (tied in with the fact that GM had a huge presence in their city back then) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonwalker Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Generals and Ice sound great and I can already tell that this will be a sweet topic.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontyK17 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 The blue on the Roadrunner jerseys is a fantastic touch. I like Generals and Ice, both the cities have histories with those names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevsim1 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Is that even a question? The Gears name has always been one of my favourites in hockey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCRGraphix Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 So after hearing what you wanted, I decided to go with the Gears, but with some nods to the Generals and even the Hawks in their branding to tie together the history of hockey in Saginaw. That being said, here are the IHL affiliates of the Buffalo Sabres, the Saginaw Gears: Original Logo: Main Logo: Main Logo recolored for NHL Affiliate Night: Secondary Logo: Original Logo recolored for Valentines Day: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCRGraphix Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 For the uniforms, I wanted something that encompasses years of tradition while still looking modern and relevant. The home, road, and third have the exact same striping, a thing I love using to tie a look together. The sock stripes will go all the way up to the bottom of the knees.

moonwalker Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I'm loving the Affiliate night jersey. The home/away jerseys have a great design on them, but I feel navy blue would suit it more than black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontyK17 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I really like the your colour choices on everything so far. I do think you should make the road green and the alt orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonwalker Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Sorry now that I look at it on a different device I can see it much better. The green looks very nice. Sorry just on a horrible screen it looked black to me. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksFan Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Everything looks great so far! Can't wait for the rest of the series! I also have a suggestion based on something said earlier. The dragon kind of does look a bit like a bird. Dragons "did" have pointy ears in the past, so maybe that could help it's appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be worth considering submitting this to the Coyotes, since they have yet to decide on a name, and Roadrunners is a local favorite suggestion. Great stuff.

JCRGraphix Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Up next are the Salt Lake City Golden Eagles, the current and historical affiliates of the Calgary Flames. For their design I wanted something modern that also nods to their long-time relationship with the Flames. Original Logo: Main Logo: Secondary Logo: And an amazing photo of their 1969-70 uniforms...
