barnesdesign Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Thanks for all your suggestions last time. I think I have something that I really like now. I made some changes here and there, and updated/cleaned up the wordmark. I also included my designs for football unis. Let me know what you think, and which helmet you prefer of the two designs. Oh and thanks again for the templates. Thanks guys. barnesdesign.netbarnesdesign.posterous.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonoMan Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Great job, I love the eagle's style helmet and the alt jerseys, I would buy one. MonoMan gives it a 9.0 I suffer from a very sexy learning disability..... sexlexia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I prefer the one with the head on it rather than the one with the wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtrich11 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I also like the bird head on the helmet. Just because the eagle wing seems to belong to the Eagles only. Probably my perception, just feels that way. I like the blue unis a ton, and THANK you for not using dark socks with the dark pants!As for the logos, did you do some subtle changes on the C in Cooper Hills? If so it looks good, and easily recognizable as a C. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Buddy, please don't enter any contests. JKThis is great. Almost has an Atlanta Thrashers-type feel (color scheme). Big A from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 i like the wings. looks great. the only objection here would be with the numbers. they are attractive, but how realisitic are they of making it to production with the highlights? maybe simplify them a little, even just deleting the highlights.

slapshot Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Great work all around!But now, my (minor) nitpicks...The bird looks great with the wordmark, but the bird by itself looks squished, as if it's crouching while flying.The wordmark is awesome. Suprisingly, the C doesn't look like an F, considering it covers the same space as the S. The extra spike on the outline around the T throws off the symmetry with the S at the end. They both have the same outlined shape for their top horizontal strokes, so I think the outlines should mirror each other.The head-along logo still reminds me of Southern Mississippi. For this reason, I think you should go with the winged-helmet look.The small thunderbolts under the arms of the uniforms look out of place. If you're going to have something there, I'd make it a thicker stripe/bolt and integrate it into the stripe on the pants.I really like the numbers and how they match the wordmark. Custom lettering or actual typeface?As you can see, these are just minor comments...if you use these, they should not affect the overall scheme you have going on. This is very good work, Ben!

barnesdesign Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 Thanks guys. Yeah, rtrich11, I made some changes on the C in Copperhills, and I think it is more readable. This is a custom font, the only way to go, in my opinion I know the Nationals are pulling off highlites on their jerseys, but you are right, tempest, it may be a bit too much to actually produce. And jp, I had a hard time figuring out what to do on the side of the jerseys, I thought one continuous bolt would be difficult to pull off, but I know what you are saying. What would you suggest I do to make the bird by itself not look so squished or crouched?

vicfurth Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I was thinking the same thing about the bird. Add a bit of leg to birdy so it doesn't look squished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eqtmgr Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 As an equipment manager, I can really see this uni being used by some professional team. The numbers are totally doable, if you use the right company. The only thing that I have a problem with are the socks on the away unis. The rule that is used by the Arena Football League, CFL. NFLE, and the NFL is that there must be a signifant color break between the pants and the socks. In the collegiate ranks, the only rule is that all of the socks are the same color and are worn in the same way by all the players on the team.Other than that, I FRIGGIN LOVE EM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAO Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 That's beautiful man. Has a way bigger impact on me than before. How the hell'd you do that bevel in the wordmark?I prefer the helmet with the wings. Awesome job with the unis and field.

buffalo soldier Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 these are awesome. i love the logo but would definitely go with the wing helmet (going back the southern miss. similarity). great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LogoFan Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 The entire package is an excellent job. This concept is ready to hit the field!I like the design of the bird, the word marks and the colors are great!Fantastic job. IF this concept had a weak spot, I think it would be the helmets. Either way you go, they look like Miss St or Philly. Looking at the main bird logo, there is potential for alot of great alterante ideas...the head is already kind of framed by the wing edges, so that might be a possibility?Anyway, outstanding work! A+!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
