Atlanta Thrashers

i was thinking of going with an older style for my first attempt at a concept jersey but here it is

not bad for your first attempt. The logos is a little big and the numbers are small. Also, where the blue meets the red it kinda blends, I think.

The execution isn't all there but the idea is nice.

As firsts attempts go, it's solid. But it leaves something to be desired.

1. The Thrashers emphasize blue over red. So a red sweater looks out of place for the Thrashers, when it is used more as an accent color than a primary.

2. As was said, the crest is too big and the numbers too small.

3. Given how dark most of the concept is, a little white goes a long way - the sleeves, the waist, the numbers/letters. By the same token, though, omitting white is very glaring. There's no white in the collar, and nothing about the collar looks very crisp. The red bleeds into the navy, which bleeds into the gold/orange. A tiny bit of white would sharpen up the works.

4. The shoulder yoke is a different color, but why? Unlike every other navyarea on the sweater, nothing offsets the navy from the red of the body. It's just kinda... there. No numbers, no patches, just a random patch of navy.

5. The revised crest is a little postmodern for an otherwise conservative design. And for a team with relatively zero history, the Thrashers don't need to be toying too much with their identity. They've already used 2 logos and 3 sweaters; now you're introducing a new logo based on one that was only used half the time for the team's brief existence. Young teams need to develop a consistent identity that is cemented into the public conscience; this retooling, while nice, takes away from that aim.

If this was their first uniform, I'd be all for it. And as your first concept, it's well above average as a concept - never mind a first concept. It's not ready for the prom just yet, but it's off to a great start.

DOUBLE POST... my bad.

Good first concept. At least it's not muddy like if it were done in 10 minutes. Keep up the good work.
