YELDARBfield Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 After the World Cup started, I got to thinking about what different states would do if there was a 'Cup-esque tournament between U.S. states. So I decided to do my home state, The Great State of Tennessee! This is my 3rd concept, but my first done with Inkscape.I'm not married to the fonts used for the badge or numerals, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Also, I'm not completely sure what I am doing with the alt. kit. I was going to attempt a Italy style blue with gold jersey, but I changed my mind as it didn't really work as well as I'd hoped.C+C please!

fonz Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 These look good. I just have a problem with your number placement. Try to make it so the numbers don't touch the lines on the jersey. I would also place the numbers above the lines on the shorts as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oz615 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 nice,very nice.One suggestion,just for the fun of it put either a FedEx,Jack Daniels or Nissan on the the front of the jerseys to give a European feel to the concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELDARBfield Posted July 7, 2006 Author Share Posted July 7, 2006 Updates:- Added Jack Daniel's banner.- Switched the numeral font from "Snickers" to "Snicker Straight". - Switched the font in the badge from "Zrnic" (Playstation 1 font) to "Snickers Straight." (All fonts found on dafont.com.)- Scrapped the alt. kit.I tried a higher location for the shorts numerals, but it looked stupid.

MJWalker45 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I would swap places between the swoosh and team logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moser316 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Since I didn't have a chance to post this in the States Concepts thread that got graveyarded, I might as well say it here: This project, along with ICS's 50 States baseball and hockey projects, sort of reminds me of what the Gaelic Athletic Association does in Ireland for their sporting competitions (hurling, Gaelic football, rounders, etc). Instead of competing under the auspices of a professional league, the GAA teams compete by county and province. For example, the province of Munster (which has its own provincial team BTW) includes teams for counties Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary, and Waterford. These projects sort of remind me of how the GAA operates, and I think there should be a place for them on the boards.Back on topic, it looks as though the project is off to a great start so far. It's clear your primary precedent comes from the Tennessee flag, and you've managed to pull it off pretty well. You might be able to do without the white shoulder yoke, I think it needlessly breaks up the continuity of the jerseys. Everything else looks great, though.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Tennessee's license plate is white and various shades of green. Red, white and blue doesn't scream "Tennesssee" to me. I like the concept a lot, but the colors don't seem quite right. Otherwise, it looks great. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the concept a lot, but the colors don't seem quite right. Otherwise, it looks great. I'm guessing red/white/blue because of the state flag. Speaking of the state flag, I love the tri-stars integrated into the soccer ball. That screams Tennessee Soccer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That screams Tennessee Soccer. agreed on both parts.i generally think a flag represents a state more than their LP's...anyway, nice so far... love the crest.i wouldn't put numbers AND a sponsor, though... and i agree that the crest would look best on top of the stripes, rather than opposite them.

YELDARBfield Posted July 7, 2006 Author Share Posted July 7, 2006 Update #2:- Switched 'Swoosh' and badge positions- Got rid of shoulder yokes on red kit, made yokes white on white kit.- Adjusted position of stripe on red kit to accomodate larger 2-digit numbers.

TheCyrus Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 They're all good, but i like the 1st one the best. I think the Jack Daniels Black Background looks kinda awkward.On an unrelated note, which, if any template are you using, and can you give me a link?

YELDARBfield Posted July 7, 2006 Author Share Posted July 7, 2006 I vectorized one of the templates used in ArsenalGnnr's Super Hero Premier League thread using the 'Bitmap to Path' command on Inkscape.I can send you a copy of the cleaned up template as either a raster (.png) or an .svg, used in Inkscpae, Gimp, and other vector based programs (excluding Illustrator or Corel). Just PM or email me with your email address and what type of file you need. Twitter • Facebook • Instagram • LinkedIn • Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELDARBfield Posted July 8, 2006 Author Share Posted July 8, 2006 Fixed the JD's logo. (The big JD logo is suppoed to have the double black outline like that on the white kit.)Any other suggestions, or is it just plain perfect?

JamieRose Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I like these. The uniform colors are a little bright for my tastes (but thats just me, not tennessee). I really like the logo though, it's simple yet gets the point across effectively. Than and the 3 stars on the soccer ball is better than anything i would have thought of.
