NFL Concepts

[DeFrank]

Hi guys,

This is my first time posting a concept on the forums, or even making a concept. I started by just making a Redskins concept, but I've decided that over (a looong period of) time I will post NFL concepts that I made using MBannon's template. Not all of the concepts I will post will be "new" ideas, and they may be a throwback or a variation of a throwback that I feel the team should bring back. In many cases, there will be an entire new idea, or a mixture of both. If I take a really specific idea from somebody else, I'll try to mention it so there's no bad ideas. This is pretty much my compilation of every "wow they should really wear this" idea or concept I thought of that I have seen or made. So C&C is greatly appreciated! Thanks for checking out my ideas!

Washington Redskins:

My favorite team, I loved when the Redskins pulled out the gold pants against Dallas (and many times since then). I have seen some great idea's on these forums, including "Moseph"'s Going Classic With the Skinsthread. I also took ideas from the late sixties uniforms and late 1940's uniforms along with their current set.

*I KNOW THE NUMBER FONT IS WERID, I CAN'T FIND THE ONE THEY USE CURRENTLY*

Home: Burgundy on gold pants. Pretty much what they have now with the new helmet and the sleeve stripe idea I love.

Away: White on Burgundy pants. This is a classic uniform but with the new helmet, pants, and sleeves.

White Alt (yellow): White on gold pants. Something to change it up every once in a while. Some have suggested they make the yellow pants full time, but I feel that the red has too much history.

All White: White on white pants. The skins wore this a lot this decade, and I find it to a refreshing look on the road. Clean and simple. It works really well with the new helmet, sleeves, and pants.

All Red: Burgundy on Burgundy pants. So this is a "Monday Night" whatever special event jersey. Considering it's first game was a crippling loss to the Steelers in Nov. 2008 that sent a 6-2 season to 8-8, I kind of hate this uniform in a way. Still, I added it to give the skins some home depth.

Yellow Alt:Gold on burgundy pants.This was back and forth for me. I first thought of it when I saw our QB's practice jerseys this year (they are yellow). It's such a traditional break, but the Redskins have no third jersey. Most teams do nowadays and I feel that the Skins could use one. Teams like the Bears, Eagles, and Browns that have tradition have broken one out. Maybe it should be reserved for the Team Store?

I don't know how to post each individually. I guess one can just click on each and enlarge. So here is the link to the album itself:

Again, C&C please!!!

I'm not sure if you already have these fonts, but these are really useful if you're doing concepts. The redskins should be one of the NFL Varsity Block ones: http://eriqjaffe.50webs.com/

Nice colour matchups there is it maroon?

[DeFrank]

Yes. It's what we wear but shhh we call it burgundy

[DeFrank]

Any thoughts on the jerseys designs?

[elsephen]

I had to search to find your concept. A lot of text and a small link at the bottom- so many may not see this. (if as impatient as I)

I like it. Good to see the best helmet in sports history brought back.

[DeFrank]

Yea I'll put it at the top.

[fumbler]

Yes. It's what we wear but shhh we call it burgundy

Burgandy it is then, and yes i like the burgandy jersey yellow pants one.

[DeFrank]

It's hard to take this concept seriously with such a bad name and number font. If you fix that, it will be quite nice.

Ok so I should use varsity block right? Then how do i get it vector?? when i paste it in its all pixly...

That's cause you have to download the font onto your computer and then type it in.

[DeFrank]

ah. now if i just download it to my comp, it will to inkscape as well?

[Moseph]

It is a pretty nice concept. I always thought the feather helmet was pretty neat, and wondered what it would look like with the current logo on the side. And as others have said, get some block numbers and it should look really nice.

It should work in most of your programs that have text, including Inkscape and Microsoft Office.
