Phil Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Had this idea bounce around my head forever. Finally got it out.Thanks to Nick, WA Designs, for the template, and the Bombers for the logo.Bomber fans may notice the lack of gold pants... as much as I like the gold pants, I couldn't fit them in appropriately.Feedback appreciated!

Anomalied Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 The gold and navy work so well together, and I love how the lightning strip extends from top to bottom. Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cashcleaner Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I love it!The jagged stripes down the sides work really well. Thanks go to Eddie010 for the Signature and Avatar. Nice work, mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheateater Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Hmmm. Looks like the perfect uni for Troy Westwood to do some banjo pickin' in. Pretty good job, though I'm not sure what the lightning bolts have to do with the Blue Bombers. Then again, I'm also not sure what their current design has to do with war planes, either. Nevertheless, the white pants work for me, so all-in all, good work.

Phil Posted February 20, 2005 Author Share Posted February 20, 2005 kinda reminds me of a chargers concept I once did...hmmmmm..... I looked back to see the Chargers concept Puckguy did (a very nice one indeed)... and came to the conclusion mine was significantly different and did not warrant mention. Perhaps it did?Remind me, if you so please, what your Chargers concept looked like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I see similarities between the two (lightning bolt stripes on the pants, shoulder yoke striping like the Colts), but they're not duplicates of one another.

Stampman Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 yeah I was more or less addressing the pants rather then the concepts as a whole There you go bringing pants into it again...(To paraphrase from Monty Python & the Holy Grail)I'm not a Bombers fan, and I'm not sure about white pants instead of gold--but still a good concept--Hopefully though their unis won't change too much--these would make great alts as well.The pants are different for these reasons (and let's face it---none of you 3 were the first to think of putiing lightning bolts on football pants)-Sy's bolts point slightly forward, Shark's go straight down.-They have a different numbers of segments to the bolts...Still a pretty good look--although I was kind of expecting a logo tweak as well...

Braden Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Great concept. I think it might need a modern number font.I hope that the white area on the sleeve is where the TV numbers go.It looks nothing like ICS' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aengre Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I love the look. Did you think about making the pants the same color blue? Personally, I'd like that more...only saying.

KCScout76 Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I see similarities between the two (lightning bolt stripes on the pants, shoulder yoke striping like the Colts), but they're not duplicates of one another.I see a similarity in the pants. However, it's like saying "I invented the double stripe down the pants" and everybody has the double stripe. For the sake of arguement; both concepts are awesome - both original. I agree the blue & gold are a nice color combo. Go Blue Bombers!

ReginaCanuck Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 i like it. it's definitely better than what they have now.could you try it with gold sleeves and gold pants, with a white lightning bolt? i think that might look even better.

Phil Posted February 20, 2005 Author Share Posted February 20, 2005 Great concept. I think it might need a modern number font.I hope that the white area on the sleeve is where the TV numbers go.It looks nothing like ICS' The TV numbers are on the shoulders.The white area is just blank white. Maybe a small Reebok insignia, but nothing else. Blank space is underutilized these days. The Bombers currently have the primary logo on the sleeve as well. Good grief, it's on the helmet, and if you're looking at the player's profile, it's largely displayed twice. Unnecessary IMO.Shark's concept is nice, but IMO significantly different. I did not have that concept in mind when making mine.By just switching a few colours around, I transformed the home jersey into an away jersey....and of course, the folks at OurBombers were immediately clamouring for the gold pants to make a return, so I made these variations...Feedback?
