JayJaxon Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I think this looks great. I like that dark color orange and the black. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 The Bandits concept looks great! The only thing that looks a little off is the nameplate seems to be just a smidgeon too far down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 Thanks to everyone for the feedback so far. Something on the eye just doesn't look right. You should also make a black monochrome jersey, as the team is the Bandits and I usually think of Bandits as being dark.Yeah, I guess I overworked the curve tool on the eye. I've now simplified it and updated the new version. I also changed the home alternate jersey to black, which I had made but was sitting on. I didn't want to get accused of black overkill this early in the project, but it does look nice as an alternate.

PhilliesPhan1325 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 There isn't a single one of your football concepts that I haven't liked. If there is one thing I would change on the logo, it would be to add more detail to the eye. I'm eagerly awaiting more from this series. Keep up the good work!I agree with cab. All of your concepts are clean and very nice. If you fix the eye that will one sweet looking logo. I'm not so sure about the striping because the brown and orange run together, but it could just be my horrible eyes.Overall i like it alot and can't wait to see this series. "The 0-2 pitch...

dgnmrwrw Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 #2: Raleigh VoltageSo this one is much more abstract and modern. Colors are loosely based on the big three Triangle universities: navy, red, and columbia blue. Nickname comes from the large number of engineering and technology companies in the area. Here's the secondary, a stylized R with sharp blue bolts beginning to come out of each side. There's a lot going on in this identity, and I did my best to keep it clean. The Voltage wear navy helmets, navy jerseys, white pants at home. White jerseys, navy pants on the road, with an alternate road set using white pants. The home alternate is a red jersey, worn with navy pants. HURRICANES | PANTHERS | WHITE SOX | WOLFPACK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalktoChuck Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I love the font you used. And that logo while very abstract is great! Your concepts just get better and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 yet ANOTHER sweet looking concept. I would curve the stripe on the pants like they are on the sleeves. But other than that I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Damn the Voltage concept is amazing. The colors work great with the name and the reason you gave. The design matches the modern-ness of the name. The logo is awesome and the wordmark is great! Excellent job on this. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gueman Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Very nice work. I think for the LV concept the logo on the helmet should have a white outline to make it pop. I also think the numbers might be hard to read on TV. But if that is the only suggestion you are doing good. Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.

crashcarson15 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 That set is awesome man!!! Great job!EDIT: I'd like to see the home have carolina blue numbers with navy and red outlines. I think that would look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 EXCELLENT job with the ones you did so far!Here are my suggestions for the rest of the teams' names:PacificPasadena Thorns (reference to the Rose Bowl while still sounding tough)Silicon Valley (San Jose) Hackers (reference to the high-tech industry-Bill Gates & Steve Jobs ring a bell)Las Vegas BanditsTucson Jackalopes (mythical creature which you could think up some strong imagery for)PlainsSan Antonio Generals (strong military history)El Paso Sun(s) (Sun City, Sun Bowl, etc.)Oklahoma City Barons (one of the rejected names for the Thunder)Albuquerque Spirit (Native American heritage)GulfBirmingham Wizards (Magic City)Memphis Blues (style of music popular there)Mobile Captains (port city, plenty of ships)Shreveport-Bossier Tugs (another port city, but in this case a river one)Atlantic DivisionRaleigh VoltageNorfolk Sharks (nickname for Norfolk is Shark City)Columbia Rapids (two major rivers, home to plenty of canoers and kayakers)Orlando Orcas (SHAMU BABY!)

dgnmrwrw Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 Those are some interesting suggestions. I've actually already picked names for most of the teams, but there are some still without names and some I'm still not positive about. I'll consider some of these ideas as I finalize these. You actually nailed one of them.EDIT:I've added the nicknames that I'm set on to the original post. I do have ideas for some of the cities that I haven't posted nicknames for, but some of them I haven't gotten to yet.El Paso: Rays, Suns, Blaze, or ScoutsAlbuquerque: no real ideas yetBirmingham: something classic, maybe BulldogsShreveport: Rivermen or BombersColumbia: no real ideas yetI'd listen to input on these five.

TalktoChuck Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 For Shreveport I'd go with Bombers. It sounds better than Rivermen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmaker17 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I like the Raleigh concept but I would change the number font. It already has a Titan-ish feel to it, and the numbers only add to that. Another choice would help to further differentiate it. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'll have the next concept up soon. HURRICANES | PANTHERS | WHITE SOX | WOLFPACK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 #3: Pasadena RocketsColors are sky blue, with yellow and black. The nickname comes from the presence of JPL in the Pasadena area, especially back in the 50s and 60s (I don't think JPL is still actually headquartered in Pasadena, but they're around somewhere). The whole logo package is supposed to have a sleek, 1960s vibe. Here's the secondary logo, a rocket launching vertically from a circle, flanked by the letters P and R.I repeated the rocket-launching theme throughout the helmet and uniforms. I know the helmet is a bit odd--there isn't just a big logo in the center--but I think it works with respect to the rest of the uniform. The Rockets wear blue helmets, blue jerseys, white pants at home. White jerseys and blue pants on the road. Alternate home and road sets included.

BrySmalls Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I would further develop the rockets logo so it covers more of the helmet rather then leaving a lot of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
