OhioSportsMan61 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Over the past few days, I've been working on this little project. The military style of the new Florida Panthers logos and uniforms inspired me in the design process of all of the aspects of this concept. The badges on the arms, the striping, the numbers on the shoulders, etc. While I do appreciate the military influence the Panthers incorporated, I believe that it makes a ton of sense for the Columbus Blue Jackets to adopt a similar style. So, I came up with a Civil War-eque badge that could serve as a secondary logo for the team. I created a simplified, minimalist cannon logo that is based off of their current alternate, and created incorporated it into a badge that is similar to the ones worn on the sleeves of generals in the Union Army. And with that, I came up with 4 different variations of uniforms that were based off of a previous concept of mine. Option A Option B Option C Option D Which one do you like most? All C&C is welcome.

ldconcepts Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 These are incredible! The striping is spot-on, and the logo is even better than what they currently wear! Great job!

B-mer Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I like A or B, but leaning toward B. You have the cannon on the arm patch so having it on the front is a little redundant. I feel it's an unpopular opinion but I like the single small tail stripe. Sure it can be misused or overdone, but I works well with certain teams. With that said I think the home version of B could use a red collar to tie that in with the tail stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I like Option D the best. The hem stripes look great. The logo is awesome too! It's better than the circle logo, and would be a great addition to their arsenal. Great job! "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

OhioSportsMan61 Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Thanks for the feedback so far! So it sounds like options B and D are the favorites. I sort of agree, and think that the cannon roundel is a bit redundant with the new secondary on the arms. Any feedback specifically on the logo that should be changed/edited/fixed?

B-mer Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I feel like the logo needs some more white in it, but not sure how. I like the stars. Maybe the hockey sticks in the top two stripes like there is in the unused logo like this one? Theres some space below the cannon, maybe the red buckeye dot outlined in white?

Bruins Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Not to over complicate things, but C is my Clear favorite, they need to work that logo in. The military logo seems kind of flat to me I would also try working more white in, maybe the middle of the three lines on the bottom. That being said, these show a lot of thoughtfulness and I love all four jerseys and the logo save minor tweaks.

T-ROY Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Option D all the way. If there's anything to fix on the logo would be to try to eliminate some of the negative space. Narrowing the logo could be a solution. Also, the red blends in somewhat with the navy and I think adding some white here and there could help that out. It's a great logo, though.

wquarton Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Call me crazy but I think your concept would make a good main logo. personally think your cannon is better than the current Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I absolutely adore Option D. I've never been much of a Jackets fan (though I don't mind them), I would 100% add that road jersey to my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT17 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I love love love option c I even made a set sorta like that a while ago but never posted it. nice job the only thing I'd change is switch the logo and shoulder numbers placement. Option B is also really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioSportsMan61 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 Ok, so I came up with two new visuals to show the differences between the two popular options (B and D). Option B: Option D: I really can't decide which I like better. D is very "ohio" and represents the team very well, but D is also very simplistic and less cluttered imo. What do you guys think? Also, I tried playing around with the logo a bit and can't really find a way to reduce the amount of negative space and lack of white without making it look atrocious/cluttered/etc. Any other suggestions?

chcarlson23 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Definitely option D. It has that CBJ sleeve-length yokee feel without the actual sleeve-length yoke look...

B-mer Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Seeing it on a player model D looks better. For the logo, what if you put white between the red stripes to match the jersey stripes? also still feel the collar area of the home needs red to balance things out. Even if it's just carrying over the red triangle to match the away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruins Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Even though my first instinct was b, I feel it needs something, which D has: the waist stripe.

DTConcepts Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Still D. B is good, but as everyone said before, the waist stripe makes it perfect. Any chance we'll see that template in the future? "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worcat Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I love option B. It's clean and effective. D is too much Bleeding Blue since 1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-ROY Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Everyone is switching from B to D, but after seeing the player model, I prefer B to my original choice of D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkychewbarky Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Great job on these Ohio... I'm old school, so I prefer "D"...but that's a personal preference. One isn't necessarily better than the other...they're both good. Nice work. *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
