Primal Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Reverse coloured nameplates are hideous, but I like the subtle striping pattern on the first one more. Number two is just far too plain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 It's missing the text that says WORLD CUP 2006GERMANYI'm with Primal, I don't like the Nike name plate thing, but the striping is nice.Also I'd prefer the Coat of Arms on the front of the shorts, not the back.Almost disrespectful.

Primal Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Also I'd prefer the Coat of Arms on the front of the shorts, not the back.Almost disrespectful.Umm... there isn't a coat of arms on the shorts!And before you say "yeah yeah I meant the southern cross" I think AM meant both southern crosses (shorts and sleeves alike) to be on the side rather than distinctly front or back.(and if you're not going to say that, then put the bottle down and back away from the keyboard ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzzaf Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Did I mention WE'RE IN THE WORLD CUP??!!and yeah yeah, I meant the Southern Cross, and if it's supposed to be on the side, why isn't it on the front view? You don't hear that every day, I'm not a soccer fan but it is good to hear that we are achieving at world class for yet another sport.Regarding your designs, I would go for the top set but would probably change the socks as follows:Home - Mainly Green with YellowAway - Mainly Yellow with GreenAlternate - Mainly White with Yellow and GreenNice work regardless.

Alphabet Man Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 thanks, tbh i dont like the all green look, and i forgot to change the socks on the first concept...and yeh the second one is two different templates put together so i could get that collar twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitaminD Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I prefer the 2nd set. More traditional is nice, although you could also use a font like Century, that IIRC Australia used in their Olympic track & field uniforms.One question: why are the #9s on the front and the back of kit #2 from different fonts? "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsf27 Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Nice concepts - i personally prefer the conservative designs with intricate trimmings. As such, your second concept seems the way to go - u just gotta put a bit more detail in it to show the trimmings and highlights.If u compare soccer jerseys now to those of 1998, and even 2002, they're all now going for a 'modern' look that emphasizes the iconic nature of that kit to each country, meaning nice clean, minimal trimmings and no extravagant patterns (e.g. Socceroos of '97).As for a Socceroos home kit, i will never mess with the iconic yellow shirt and green shorts. I'd then throw in a few (not too much) highlights and trimmings that hark back to the sponsor (e.g. three lines of adidas or swooshes of nike).The same principles would apply to the away kit - although u might wanna throw in a splash of royal blue as a link to our flag and heritage.Hope this helps and keep up the good work!

Alphabet Man Posted November 19, 2005 Author Share Posted November 19, 2005 One question: why are the #9s on the front and the back of kit #2 from different fonts? aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh fluff i fluffed it up lolthanks for the critique thoughi was thinking maybe we should bring back the spew jersey....nah not relaly that was horrible, te more i look at te 97 jersey, it looks a bit liek the Coke logo imo The gold shirt is here to stay.....nah i dont like the idea of blue, maybe navy if i had to but then its not too Australian imo twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
