DelayedPenalty Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Eww, sorry, but no. I'd take the newly redesigned one over that. It's way too plain, no creativity involved, and quite frankly it looks like you slapped it together in about 2 minutes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 i see where you are comming with this, but the problem is you have a large swath of yellow on the arms and yolk and a large swath of blue everywhere else with no real striping to break the monotny of both colors. Yellow should not have that much presence on a jersey, it should be limited to trim and accent colors. But if that is your aim to have yellow and blue together like that, then you need to add at the least some striping maybe add silver as an accent color. I do suggest if this is the direction you want to go with the design, i would go in the direction of the Flyers. I rather see a flyers knock off thats executed well than see a concept that was slapped together and lacks execution. if anything this really looks not finished, and i know you can do more than that.

Talk about the pot and the :censored:ing kettle Back to the concept, this is another one where it looks like you just colored in different panels of the template with minimal thought as to how it would look. Please, if you're just starting out with design, do some research into uniform precedents (i.e. colors, shoulder yokes, striping patterns, etc.). If you try and reinvent the wheel, you get stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Hybrids from different eras usually don't work well design-wise.The yellow shoulders/sleeves really don't work for me.Curious about how the roadies would look.

Jigga Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Just something to think about Here's something for you to think about.How about you actually give a full and complete effort on a concept before you post it. You're not creating anything from scratch here, you're taking a template, coloring some stuff in, slapping some logos, typing some text and throwing it all toghether. So why is it so g-d damn difficult to make it look like you actually give a damn instead of continually wasting everyone's time with this crap.Yes, I knew it would look like crap when I saw that you posted another concept, but I was hoping against hope that you would actually internalize some of the things that many of the guys up here...especially the other paint users...utilize to make their concepts.Download the gimp, download inkscape, do something. Ask some questions to the guys up here (I do not mean that you need to ask, "Hey guys how do you make these concepts look good?) about certain techniques and styles. Pay careful attention to everything you do, because someone will grill you. ASIDE: Just today, a designer, who is sort of a mentor to me in a way, actually used the phrase "your [work] sucks." Why? Because I did not pay enough attention to a particular aspect of the concept. I didn't give the design process the respect it demanded and dude called me on it. I was taken aback, but he was completely right about me needing to give that extra little bit of effort. He's still my dog, and I still love him. Yes, this is being critical of you and your effort, but I don't want this to seem to you as though I'm just bitching about it, I am trying to offer solutions. I love the fact that this is a place that people come to post their designs, critique others' work, and even request/contract design work, but I hate what concepts like yours do to the credibility of the community. Does anyone even realize that every piece like this lowers the credibility of the site just a tad? Some of the greatest work ever done by some of the members are never seen here, because they know it will just get lost under a steaming pile of that gets 100x more attention than the stuff that's actually good.To recap:1) Please finish your concepts before you post them.2) Please integrate what people are telling you into your designs.3) If you feel paint hinders you, get another program. There are free options.4) Ask legitimate questions of the designers here. They usually are very helpful.5) Do better work. It makes you look better. It makes the CCSLC look better.Thank you for your time and attention (and yes, I know I suck, I'm mean, I'm an ass hole, and I am being too hard on the kid). You've got some thinking to do.

steiny_ramone Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 If I didn't want you to get better, or at least try, I wouldn't post this:My First Concept.It sucked, no one liked it, it was rather plain, and it was just panels coloured in, with a few diagonal lines for good measure.See any similarities?If you're going to make strides towards putting effort into things, now might be the time. facespace?http://www.myspace.com/seancalcottmusic http://www.myspace.com/forgottentoys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
