jake22 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Alright, im back with a new series, the MLB. Many teams in the MLB have uni sets that are just fine with me that just need a good alternate jersey to complement them. That is what this series will be about.I made a new paint baseball template that i will be using in this series, it it here for anyone else that wants to use it.Concept 1: Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim I am not a big fan of their current look, many in the past were better in my oppinion. But, with thier current look i think blue is not used as much as it should be. That was the thinking behind this alternate jersey. This jersey could be used both for home and road jerseys.

patsox Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 It's a good look on its own, but the Angels use red so minimally I'm not sure how well it would fit in with their identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 1. Don't you want to finish your other series first?2. It's Angels. 3. I think the Angels focus more on red, just look at their hats, logos, wordmarks, piping, etc. That's why blue doesn't work. 4. My sig is awesome huh? Edit: 5. Your template is really, really lopsided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalktoChuck Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The template is really lopsided. And there's too much blue for the Angels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elliott Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 ^No, the whole jerseyDraw a line down the center. See if that's symmetrical. It isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Honestly I don't see what the big deal is with the template. As far as the concept goes, I don't think it looks bad. Perhaps you can put some piping on the sleeves to match the red piping on the front of the jersey, and make the outline around the numbers a little thinner. I would even try a red number outlined in White on the front, and leave the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake22 Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 alright, thanks for the C&C, i made the template by just tracing a few jersey pics i found that were proble found hanging on a hanger to begin with. so i guess i could make it better but i really like it.i will make an update then move onto oakland, i am thinking yellow sleevless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erlovepuck Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I really like what you did with these in part because I think the cap looks great. Its similar to their BP cap which I have always loved. The Angels have worn a blue cap with a red bill for a lot of their history so having one with their modern cap logo works well.

dgthree Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 i like the blue and if he did red you would all bitch and say its not a big enough change. This forums are the most hypocritical place in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forums are the most hypocritical place in the world.Hey now. Although I agree that some are real quick to say too much negative without giving any constructive criticism to the artist, I really don't think this is one of those threads. Yes it got off topic for a little while about the template. But Jake isn't getting a verbal bashing for his work here. I really don't think this was the right thread to bring something like this up.

This forums are the most hypocritical place in the world.Then leave. No one's forcing you to be here. Quite frankly, if you think so little of us, anyway, why would you want to stick around?

crkraider22 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The jersey looks too much like the Rangers imo. Maybe try something with the two tones of red they have and expand on their current alternate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Pick the half of the jersey template that you think looks better, then copy it. Flip it and put it on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake22 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 Alrigh i will try to update the template next jersey but in the meantime i have an update and a new jersey.The Angles Update- made the piping thicker- added some sleeve pipingThe Oakland A's- I got my insparation for this jersey from last years throwbacks- I think yellow is a great color, but this jersey would only be intended for use for 10 mabey 12 road games a season- this would be a nice change up from that awful black one they pull out every once and a whileC&C please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalktoChuck Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 The yellow hat is a little overkill IMO. Stick with the green hat/yellow brim and this is a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I like the idea, but first of all the script on the front of the jersey is too far down and the number and nameplate on the back are too. Next, I have a question. Is the jersey supposed to be sleeveless or all one piece? I'm going to assume it is supposed to be sleeveless for now and suggest that you add piping around the sleeves and around the placket. Also, go with a green hat/gold bill. Overall this is pretty solid. Good job, Jake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
