Avenger Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 JQK and Nate's concepts are definetly retro. While I like Rozilla's, it just doesn't seem very retro to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 Wow I am honoured by the standard of work being produced for this challenge, I may even put up a vote at some point, although that was never my intention! I'll see how I feel sometime!The badge on the front of JGKs jersey is similar to the badge worn by the Met Police in London!!! 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(NYC detectives use that style badge too...)Best one yet is Avengers jersey and logo. Truly remarkable... i'd buy one of his jerseys...

CDunn Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 i was lazy and went the simple diagonal letters route. I was thinking about having the stripes be the main 5 and leaving off the big ends and just have them be the same color as the rest of the jersey, but it didn't look right. I've had these done for a while, just been busy. The wishbone C I include is another route for the main logo if you wanted.HomeRoad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian in Boston Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Rozilla... now you've got both a 1960s concept (your most recent) and a 1970s concept (your original).Brian in Boston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winters in buffalo Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Are you sure it's non-competitive? Rozilla gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 The new one looks pretty good, Rozilla. That's much more inline with the sixty's logos IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 ok, I have it up...it's athttp://www.jimdesign.com/cbj.htmlMy first attempt at uniform creation, the lines might be a little off.I combined elements of the Bruins, Penguins and Rangers from 66-67 era. The red and blue are a little darker than I would have liked, but when I imported the logo that's how dark it was.I based the numbers on Chicago's uniforms. They would definitely be blocky, not rounded like the Copperplate font version used now.They can still have the cartoon bug they have now...Pittsburgh's skating penguin is from the same time.I like the heavy coloring on the shoulders like the Bruins, but it has to be different enough to not be confused with the Rangers. So even though they are the Blue Jackets, the shirts would have to be blue, not red, but there is more white, and the numbers are not 3-dimensional.Jim Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted September 30, 2003 Author Share Posted September 30, 2003 I hadn't expected to post a poll for this challenge but as the standard has been so high, I figured why not!! You can continue to post Blue Jackets retro here obviously, but you have missd out on the poll. A new saintsfan challenge will be posted sometime soon, and will be along the same TBTC lines! 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
