drdougfresh Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 So, I got bored with my current big project, and decided to throw something new into the mix. I saw the gas station concepts, and I thought "hmmm, what else could I use?" Didn't want to barge in and make concepts and feel like an a$$, so here's what I came up with.Culver's isn't entirely "old" per se, but they have the perfect logo for a fauxback-type uni. I wanted to use older companies, because they have colors that work well with these uniforms as well. Numbers on the back are the years that the companies were founded. Enjoy!Not sure if I'm going to go back in and make corrections, as this was a just for fun kind of thing, but feel free to leave C&C! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren69 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 What this and the gas station logo uniforms remind me of is when i was in little league baseball and our team logos were the store or company that sponsored us...Pretty cool, thumbs up to both of you on your work with these concepts!! https://www.behance.net/Ren1969 https://twitter.com/Ren1969_Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdougfresh Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 I wanted to use some more 'niche' places, places that don't try to cater to everyone, if that makes sense. Carl's Jr. is on the verge of that, but the others barely advertise heavily-- and I think that added to the concept. If I were to do more, I would definitely include Taco Bell, McDonalds, and KFC. They all started in the 40's, if I'm not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halian Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Carl's Jr. doesn't really qualify because it's a major chain in the South (where it's known as Hardee's). Conworlds: Safir Alliance | Hoennverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 A&W is a big advertiser.

drdougfresh Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Not nationwide though. And specific to my region, they barely do. Like I said, it was a simple 'fun' project. If I really wanted to quantify exposure to make sure that they were truly low-budget advertisers to their target markets, I would have. Just for fun, guys. It's about the jerseys, not the companies.

HawkeyHouse Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 If your talking about Culvers they are midwest area, Wisconsin, Illinois and Minnesota mostly. Its a good company. But the concept, its pretty sleek. Looks like something the Maple Leafs would wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Culver's, they actually just opened some in AZ (too many transplants not to have one. Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I wanted to keep the focus on their logo, I think it's incredibly simple, but also clean and fresh-looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelayedPenalty Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Krispy Kreme is by far my favorite in this set. I love the cream colored breezers. What's the font you used for the nameplate? It looks familiar, but I can't place it. Great stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxColonels Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 These look great. I would have loved to have seen the bent arrow from the In-N-Out Burger logo incorporated into the uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wILL-INI Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 For the white castle one, you should put a castle pattern around the bottom. Like, the top part of a castle wall, the from their logo. Use it as a stripe pattern. "Classic" does not mean it gets a free pass for being bad design.Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 White castle changed their identity in 2003, and I didn't want to used the modern mark, so I went with the old one. Same with A&W and Carl's. They changed recently as well. As far as I could find, In N Out didn't have the arrow until recently either, at least not when they opened. Since I wanted to stay true to the origins of the companies, I went with older iterations of their logos. Hence the 'fauxback' look. Thanks for all the C&C guys!
