lightning25 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Used Mau's Pro Combat template in GIMP. This is my first concept on a lifelike template, CNC please.As for an explanation:I made the navy blue more saturated and light. I wanted to use the neon green more as well, so I made it more lime green instead of snot green. I also loved the proposed silver helmets, so I brought those back and used silver more in the color scheme. The jersey has the two-color striping that is on the seahawk and was on their old jerseys. The silver pants, which you can't see the striping on, have the same striping as on the jerseys, except blue over green instead of green over silver in the typical pro combat way where it stops 3/4 up the leg. I might work on the away jerseys if this is good enough, otherwise I will fix any problems with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Looks good for a start at this template. I think you perfected something that nike would actually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC2 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 That's flipping awesome. I think some sort of helmet stripe could help this. Try coloring the gloves and cleats if you can.Edit: Just read that you made it in GIMP, I like this better now considering you made it in a crappy program. Fast. Hard. Finish.

mjm25 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 maybe a green stripe on the pants or helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning25 Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 I'll try adding a helmet stripe, but I'm not sure about it, as I meant for the logo to stretch all the way around the helmets like the current helmet. I might add an anti-symmetrical helmet stripe (as that would easily be something Nike would do), and I do plan on adding color to the gloves and cleats.Also, I can't seem to find a good .psd football template that I can open in GIMP (the .psd converted version of andrewharrington's template doesn't work for me), I will add the pants stripes so they are visible - they aren't on this template.

Look no further.I'll try that out, but it'll probably be a few days at least with Inkscape's learning curve.Also, here's V2 with a helmet stripe, I couldn't figure out how to color the gloves or cleats: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC2 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Helmet stripe looks great. Fast. Hard. Finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning25 Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Correction to my inkscape comment: Things are going well so far, I think it'll be much easier than I thought. Really excited to see how my final result turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjm25 Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 the stripes could be slimmed down on the helmet and another green or a blue stripe on either side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fkaKrock5cent Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I'm feelin' the new/old color scheme here. Is there anyway you could draw it up on a 2D temp so I can see the whole design? I'd like to see what you did here in its entirety! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning25 Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 2D:That looks like the paint template to me.Try using the .svg template.It is the paint template.I've tried .svg in Inkscape, but it confuses me a lot even with watching the tutorials, so I just went back to what I know best (Paint) for now. I'll probably take another stab at Inkscape though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fkaKrock5cent Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 The paint template looks fine, esepecialy since you used the photo-realistic template with it. As for the design, one thing that the seahawks used to do which was really cool was use the logo on the sleeves like this. Maybe you should try to use it.
