lancebridwell Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I'm going to attempt to re-design the NHL. Up first, Tampa Bay1. Tampa Bay LightningFirst, I'd like to say I hate the new logo design, and I'm not a big fan of their current logo. But combined with a few alterations, I came up with this. I really don't like silver, although it represented the stormy/cloudy sky. I left it to three colors, and haven't yet designed the jerseys, but I'd like to know what you guys think.C&C ?

GriffinM6 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Wow.Major upgrade to what they just released.Jerseys soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFr Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Thicken up your lines significantly. I am against black for the bolts, but it is workable. Lighten the blue, and remove the Tampa Bay Script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancebridwell Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 @Griffin - Yes, I can't seem to find a decent hockey template however.@JackFr - I was thinking about doing that, but I didn't want it to look too cluttered and mashed up.

lancebridwell Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Which lines specifically are speaking of? And I know you have done some hockey concepts, would you mind sending me your template? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancebridwell Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Also, should I fill in the inside of the circle so that it remains white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The point in the logo is a bit long, and it throws the balance off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancebridwell Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 Great! Now if only I could find a decent jersey template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFr Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 There isn't enough contrast between the blue and black; the logo on the black jersey is invisible. Maybe make the bolt white on the home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancebridwell Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 It must a real difference to you Jack, because my contrast it really differentiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancebridwell Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 2. Florida Panthers Nothing really spectacular here, I have always hated the puss yellow panther, and so I went with what I thought was the "original" panther, but it's only featured on anniversary badges, which makes no sense, seeing as the colors make it look more like a panther. Also, I thought the Tree/Stick looked like it was missing something. So, I took the god awful baby blue FLA patch, removed the clipart sun, and voila! Again, nothing spectacular, I'd just like to see what you guys think I should do.C&C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMW79 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 The colors are a bit dull to me, but not horrible (maybe brighten up the red?). One change I'd really recommend it to stick with the original alternate logo. The "FLA" is just awful (unless, of course the Panthers are trying to spark some sort of rivalry with the Kings...), IMO.

HawkeyHouse Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Agreed, colors are dull. Maybe spice up the blue a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 It must a real difference to you Jack, because my contrast it really differentiating.What JackFrost is talking about is that thin black outline. The majority of logos that have white space of an outline with a darker thinner outline outside of it will not look right. On your black jersey this thin black outline disappears so it looks better, however it looks like a different logo than the one on the white jersey becase of this. Logos have some kind of light outline when place over a darker background, such as a jersey. I would personally take that black out, but if you like it, make it thicker.On your Panther set, the wordmark Florida Panthers has a white outline to separate it from the gray background, which is how it should be, your other logos do not have this outline which makes them look totally different than the wordmark.
