C-Squared Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I missed this thread, love these concepts! Might have missed the boat, but any chance for a DIII SUNY Brockport Golden Eagles concept? My TeePublic Shop My Instagram Art Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpygremlin Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I have loved every concept, but Portland has a couple of issues that I think need fixing. The numeral font, if you're going to have it be inspired by the wordmark, should probably be in Impact or some other similar font. What you have now looks nothing like the wordmark. The wave stripes feel off. They don't fit together as cleanly as they should. The placement of the waves need to be more cohesive, as it feels like the waves diverge from each other the longer the stripes go on. That said, the ideas are great here, if the execution needs work. Clean it up, and this will be on the level of your other amazing works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Wolf Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 It's not really your fault, but man do I hate the way Little Rock's Trojan logo is weirdly transparent in parts. On the silver helmet I wonder if it would look better if that part were just filled in with white rather than an outline around their dumb, weird logo quirk. Maybe they'll fix that one day if I whine about more. They changed their branding from UALR to Little Rock a few years after I started saying they should do that, so perhaps they're just catering to the whims of a fan of their biggest rival. If you need/want/don't care about suggestions, I'd throw out UT-Arlington just to fill out the Sun Belt ranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSLthe2nd Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I would love to see a Pacific Tigers concept soon if it's still going. I have really liked these, especially Seton Hall's Throwback and St. John's. My absolute favorite is Wichita State's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm going to keep this thread for schools that do not have a football team and they do have a football team. But thanks for commenting!

Moved the wave pattern on the jersey to sleeve caps. Looks more like the school's crest Changed number font. I should've been more clear in the original post. I meant the number font to look like the T and L in the script. But I think this number font works too. Thanks for the comments and I will have Charleston up next.

NH4 Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 With me being on Spring Break I will have more time to complete these concepts so I hope to be turning out these concepts quickly. Here's Charleston: On 2/20/2017 at 10:06 PM, Djruggs said: College of Charleston? COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON COUGARS DESIGN: -A traditional design for a traditional school -Thick three stripe design like the old 49ers pants HELMET: -Satin gold and matte maroon helmet. Both with gray facemask -American flag and recolored SC and Palmetto ouline -C logo on both helmets -"The College" script on both helmets. I used this script because it is more unique than the "Cougars" script and the "Charleston" script was too long for the helmet. Plus they do use it on their baseball uniforms. Also, I tried different options with the white outline and this is the best I could come up with. Just the gold script was hard to see on the red helmet and a red outline and then a white outline was too hard to see as well JERSEY: -Three stripe on sleeve cap with the C logo on it -Number font that resembles the logo and script PANTS: -Gold, white, and red pants -Three stripe on each of the pants Thanks guys for the comments guys and like I said I hope to have more teams out a lot quicker than the last couple weeks.

cjm3114jr Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 For Charleston's "the college" red helmet, can you try to switch the white and gold? It blends in too much as it sits now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concepts for Grand Canyon, Chicago State, UMKC and UT Rio Grande Valley. I would like to see what you can do with these WAC schools. CHICAGO STATE COUGARS DESIGN: -My own twist on the Chicago flag -Tapered the colored stripes for a sharp effect. Like a Cougar's claw or teeth HELMET: -Green satin and black matte helmet -Chicago flag stripe on each helmet -USA Flag and Chicago flag on back JERSEY: -Chicago flag stripe on sleeve caps -Sleeve caps are white on all jerseys. The outer part of the flag is white and I wanted to recreate that. I tried to taper the outer white stripes but it was too thick and look cluttered -Number and chest font that was sharp but classic -No outline on the away jersey numbers. It was too hard to see with a black outline PANTS: -Black, white, and green pants -Chicago flag stripe on each Oh how I miss seeing the WAC on a football jersey.

stumpygremlin Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 My one thing on Chicago State is... on the fronts, bump everything more towards the top. It looks too low. Other than that, I got nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH4 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 I have Utah Valley almost done but I need some help figuring out what color facemask I should use. The options are below: For perspective, white is used more than gold in the uniforms. Gold is used as outlines to the number, chest text, and striping. I have green, gold, and white pants to accompany the jerseys and helmets. Knowing you guys, you'll help me come up with the best option. Thanks guys!

CraigJPritch Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I would go with Gold, it provides the best balance to the helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH4 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Thanks ODUmonarchs for commenting. Hopefully I can get more feedback on UVU but for now I'll post Grand Canyon. GRAND CANYON ANTELOPES I usually hate gradients in sports but what Arizona did this year with their football and basketball uniforms, I think in moderation it looks well for a certain school. This school was one of the few I think could pull it off. Especially looking for a unique identity I hate their new redesign of logos that are just straight rip offs of TCU. That's why I went back to their old logos and old font It was unique to the school and it just looked better. I just removed the design on the bottom of the stomach of the antelope. DESIGN: -Purple gradient of the Grand Canyon on sleeves. Purple gradient stripe -Inspired by Arizona's new uniforms and mgdmhl's basketball court concept for GCU -Wanted more brighter colors in the color scheme so I added bright purple/pink to the gradient HELMET: -Glossy purple and white helmet -Gradient stripe on each -Oversised antelope on each side of each helmet -Gradient logo and facemask on white helmet JERSEYS: -Gradient Grand Canyon on sleeves -'Lopes on home jersey, Canyon on away jersey -Number font that resembles the school fonts PANTS: -Purple and white pants -Gradient stripe on each Thanks for looking guys and as always C&C is greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
