Lights Out Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 AFC WestSan Diego ChargersI've posted these before - they're based on the 1967 uniforms with a modern twist.Denver BroncosBased on their 1965-1966 set (which was brought back in throwback form in 1994) but with a brown and tan color scheme which recalls the early-AFL throwbacks without being too garish. I also went with the ballsy choice of using tan uniforms for the road - I figured they'd be light enough not to clash with any team, so why settle for white?Oakland RaidersI used the diamonds from their 50 Years logo as a sleeve pattern, brought back silver numbers on the road, and used a font that looks like the Raiders script. Eagle-eyed viewers might notice that "JUST WIN BABY" is sublimated into the helmet stripe - a cool element I took from Oregon's carbon helmets. And yes, as a loyal Chargers fan, I smirked while adding JaMarcus Russell's name and number to the concept.Kansas City ChiefsI took inspiration from Oklahoma State's new look for these uniforms, including matte helmets. I really just wanted to update their staid look. I had to pick a random defensive player with this number because all I had in this font was a 5 and a 3.Thoughts? POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12
bigmike Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I really like what you did with the chargers, although I think you should match the bolt on the jersey with the helmet and pants bolt. The design for the Broncos looks good but I'm not sure how I like the colors, seems a little boring, maybe add orange into it.The raiders may be my favorite one out of the bunch except I think you should just remove the diamonds from the sleeves.The chiefs look pretty good as well, I think if you added white to the red uniform it would add some more pop but I know you were going for a more consistent look.All in all these concepts are really good, can't wait to see more.

justie Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I like all of theese except for Oakland. It just dosen't look good IMO. And I also agree with bigmike that you should add some white on the KC Chiefs jersey. But other than that I like them.

Jahgee Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Chargers: I would make the facemask Powder Blue, other than that, good jobBroncos: Good concept, just not the style that I like (Brown and Tan are a big no-no to me)Raiders: Just awesome, babyChiefs: Replace the black with white.
ninersdd Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 SD home looks a little like UCLA. Still though, I don't mind the tan on Denver. It's kind of like the Padres where it's different but not crazy. BEAR DOWN ARIZONA!2013/14 Tanks Picks Champion
missouri tigers Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 They all look good, there's just a few things I would change though...I agree with Jahgee (never thought I would say that) about making the Chargers facemask blue as aposed to yellow.I like what you did with the Broncos, but the road jersey should be white, right now it just has too much tan... I guess you could keep it as an altenate though.The raiders unis look good I'm glad you didn't change thier unis too much, theyve got a simple yet classic look, that shouldn't be changed drastically.My only complaint whith the chiefs is again what Jahgee said, ditch the black. it looks bad, especially on the road uni.Also, what number font is that on the Chiefs concept?- I really like it.
Lights Out Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 Also, what number font is that on the Chiefs concept?- I really like it.I have no idea what it's called, TBH. I just took the font from a large picture of the Astros' Rainbow Guts jersey. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12
Bmac Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I love the diamond design on the Raiders jersey and the logo on the pants. Not really a fan of the number font though. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043
thespleenenator Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Raiders and chargers look great (I love the gradient you have on the numbers). The chief's yellow is a little to dark, and i would return the broncos to their normal colors. Right now, they look like Western Michigan. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.
LetsGoOakland9 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I absolutely love "Just win baby" on the Raiders helmets, and I like the pants logo as well. Adding those two elements to their current jerseys would be an upgrade imo. With a few tweaks to the Chargers I would love those. The other two however, I'd go back to square 1
BlueSky Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 You used Jamarcus Russell for the Raiders? I scrolled back up to see when these were posted, figuring they were from several years ago and just got bumped.As for the unis, Chargers and Raiders look good (the diamonds on the sleeves are distracting though). Broncos and Chiefs...yeah, no. Broncos colors and Chiefs' number font just aren't appealing.
Lights Out Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 Being a bona fide Raider-hater, I had to use JaMarcus. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12
Jahgee Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Being a bona fide Raider-hater, I had to use JaMarcus. There was always the Robotic Quarterback aka Todd MarinovichAlso, you should have used The Nigerian Nightmare, Christian Okoye for the chiefs
Lights Out Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 I would have, but I'm trying to use current players (except for the Raiders). Don't want to get all anachronistic on you guys. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12
The Impaler Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Love the Chargers and Chiefs. Like the striping pattern on the chiefs pants and the return to the old Chargers colors. HATE the choice of brown and tan for the Broncos. I know they had those colors back in the day for a couple seasons but the Broncos should be forever blue and orange. Definitely need to change the number font on the Raiders, doesn't go with anything about their look.
Jared222 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I like all of them , great job . I do like the tan for Denver but perhaps adding the orange back in as a accent colour ? I the orange can work with the tan and brown.
erict22 Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Raiders I like tha helmet but the number fount is odd and the raiders and Oakland on the top is gay GO RAIDERS LAKERS USC AND YANKEES http://i55.tinypic.com/w88sh.jpg
Lights Out Posted August 1, 2011 Author Posted August 1, 2011 the raiders and Oakland on the top is gayIt's settled - I'm making those twice as big when I update the Raiders. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12

GeauxColonels Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I LOVE what you did with the Chiefs. Very nicely modern with an old-school twist. Nicely done.Chargers are ok. I'm not too fond of the number font.Oakland, same thing. I'm not a fan of the thick numerals or the metallic look to it.Denver is just OK. It definitely reminds me of Western Michigan.
