justinw21987 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for all the compliments and the constructive criticism... mbannon92 this one is for you... i redesigned the bears once again. i went classic this time, which seems to be a reoccurring theme, but i think i drifted a little of course by trying to modernize the bears. i can see youre definitely a chicago fan and just wanted your opinion on this one.Next i will probably try and hit up some of the teams you guys are wanting to see, while at the same time tweaking some of the previous ones. Probably gonna do something with the packers, because its basically the same uniform they have now, and thats not enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinw21987 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 its not the cardinals current numbers but very similar. the current numbers just look odd to me because theyre kinda rounded off... so thats why i did what did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC2 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Wow! That update Bears uniform is very nice! I'd recommend using the old design on another team, because that idea is too cool to not use. Fast. Hard. Finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Now THOSE Bears unis are SICK!!! The jerseys are similar but you changed them up a little in a good way, and those pants are amazing. By far the best Bears concept I've seen on here.And I agree with MC2 that you should use the old design on another team.

illwauk Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 For the Packers, dig into their history for some cool inspiration. Obviously, there's the throwback they wore this season. For all those traditionalists who think that monochrome uniforms are some newfangled, badass youngster invention, here is the Pack in a pretty cool monochrome uniform way back in 1953.Of course there's the classic Lambeau-era uniform as well:Maybe you could incorporate tan pants into a new uniform, or use blue and green together with the gold. Maybe use the interlocking GB logo, or those beautiful gold numbers on the jersey...I agree with everything but this. Not only are tan pants ugly, they're not necessary... case in point.

Tan pants could be a really unique look paired with a less 'vintage' uniform set.

The thick stripes are a little Packer-esque, but I don't think that's the end of the world. I would try it with the thinner stripes they currently wear, too. I definitely am not feeling the bear on the pant stripes. It really interrupts that great stripe design in a bad way. This is just an execution thing, but I'd definitely make the sock stripes the same thickness as the sleeve stripes. The sock stripes are actually slightly thicker than the sleeve stripes on most teams that wear matching sleeve and sock stripes. I think this also would be a good one to try ditching the white outline on the helmet logo, since you ditched the white outline on the orange stripes.

Drakonius26 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yeah, I have to admit, I'm going to miss that original Bears concept as it was well put together and unique for their standard identity. Overall, I'd prefer an orange/white/orange striping pattern on the home jerseys and socks (not the pants though), but it's not bad, I guess.

Brave-Bird 08 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Not sure about some of your jersey designs. As people have stated, you've fallen in love with the armpit, and that's not good, haha. Also, your numbers are huge...just a little nitpicky thing.But, these are all pretty solid. You are showing tons of awesome creativity when it comes to pants designs! Those Cardinals pants are sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way two numbers would fit on there. Nike + CFL 2015 | 2015-16 NBA Concepts | Complete College Football Redesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJM Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 These look amazing! Thank you for leaving the facemask grey and not adding a helmet stripe. The unis are top notch. My only suggestion would be to add a red pant.Keep 'em coming!

justinw21987 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 I just wanted to let all of you know that i do plan on doing alternates for some of the teams. Right now Im just trying to find out what kind of look i want each team to have... when im finished with that, i will throw in some alternates in the final designs.

There's no way two numbers would fit on there.Negative. As I've said before. The Pro Combat jersey was not designed so the numerals fit entirely inside the chest and back panels, or else all of them would do just that. The numerals are about the correct height here, but the artist is using the exact same numeral style front and back, whereas most NFL teams that use block numbering use a separate set of taller numerals with a smaller width to height ratio (basically, narrower) than the numerals on the front. True, fitting two of these numerals shown here across the jersey would be huge in some instances, but they will fit. Making the rear numbers a little narrower (about the same width as the fronts, or maybe a tiny bit wider, but two inches taller) would help with what you guys are seeing. The numbers Nike puts on these jerseys generally look to be shrunk a bit, but the NFL has minimums for number sizes, and I believe they are larger than the NCAA's.
