rmered Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Can anyone recognise the horse here?If not, err, it's mine. If so, I've had it as a bmp for some time, with no idea of the owner, though I vaguely remember it as a computer game co or something similar.Does the whole thing look a bit 'busy'? I don't know if I'm 100% liking it yet. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter13 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Looking over some of the more modern designs teams are using, especially with the outline of the mascot, I think it's great! Though I think you need to ease up on the stripes on the side. Maybe just three bigger ones, one for each color. The diagonal effect works though. Great job. You are on the path to having the best dressed team in the league.

rmered Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 I based it on this one, which was worn by Fitzroy in the 1995 preseason competition. Then I just kept adding stuff to it. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 The side panels are nasty, full stop. At the absolute very least they need to be simplified down to shorter stripes. C'mon, you've seen the original Fitzroy monstrosity that tried this, why are you even contemplating replicating it???(edit: yes, yes it seems you really have ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're my old school's colours, and also my company colours.Chevron is what the Fitzroy club called them, I think they were trying to sound regal.My understanding is that actually they are vees. Chevrons would go up in the middle, an anti-vee if you like.As for the Chevron Nighclub, do you know how to handle yourself with a knife Frenchie? It was the place for knife fights and girls of poor reputation.I think it's closed now. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primal Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 ...edYou forgot the last two letters.You remain corrected I stand by my assertion that said Fitzroy jumper is the third worst jumper in the history of the VFL/AFL. Particularly when you consider that Fitzroy's main jumper from the same period was a very nice piece of work.I can see how chevrons/vees could work in that capacity, but I think they are far too big and barberpole-ish as that design stands.
