OhioSportsMan61 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 C&C please? logo credited to Heinze 57 and Mac over at HFBOARDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I believe that logo is actually Mac's, if I remember correctly. I'd ask this Heinze 57 character where he got it, before crediting him with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Pick one shoulder logo or theother. If it's an alt, it should be the primary IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioSportsMan61 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 the blue jackets have had a history of having two separate shoulder logos (pre-edge ofcourse), so i felt like it wouldnt be too out of place. look at their original third jersey, it had the primary and the hat logo on the shoulders. anything else about my concept?

walkerws Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 The original chest logo was for a confederate/rebel logo, I'd try to find a union guy for that. I'm not a fan of every team doinghte double blue in the NHL and think you need to make that grey blue a red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I think that if you're sticking with the head, ditch the "C", it just clutters up the logo. The Sens don't have an "O" behind their logo - it's just the head. The stars on the sleeves look great, BUT the All-Star jerseys had white stars in the same place, and coupled with the fact that the jersey is blue as well, I'd recommend doing something to differentiate them. All in all, good work so far, I'm interested to see how this develops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I like it. It's not my ideal Blue Jackets jersey but it's well done. I don't mind the two different shoulder logos, but if you were to pick one I would recommend the primary logo. Partly because it is the primary logo and would help with branding, but also because the cap in the alternate logo is already found in the crest. Nice work.Edit: Holy shiznit, apparently this was post number 3,000 for me. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioSportsMan61 Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 ive tried adding red into the jersey, but it just doesnt look good imo. are there any other suggestions? im thinking about placing three small stars on the sleeves like the cbj's original third jersey. thoughts?

sparkychewbarky Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I'm agreeing with Big Bubba... Ditch the "C".Those stars are a little low on the sleeves; they might get lost in the gloves.Throw them up on the shoulders?The logo IMO needs a little something in the shaded part of the face.The blue in the logo needs to be a tad lighter also. It's too close to the black (or navy)....But this is a nice-looking sweater.I like where it's going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkychewbarky Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Here's the most recent update of the soldierWhoa...now that's interesting.Maybe you DON'T drop the "C".Put a red keyline around the stars (and the numbers) and put'em on the shoulders.

Sport Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Actually, this is a more recent update. His face is thinned out. The C is bolder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbruins Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 IMO, the Blue Jackets are the toughest team to devise a concept for, and it doesn't help that they've never had a decent logo. Their current alternate is the probably the best out all their logos past and present, but even that is still lacking compared to other NHL logos. That being said, I like your idea to go the Senators route: 3/4 turned portrait of a soldier... but I think that's your unfortunate drawback, it's too similar to Ottawa's aesthetic, even though I really dig the mustache.I like the "C" idea though, maybe tone down the stars and make is a darker red? I know the stars and that shade of red are symbolic of the Ohio flag, but their previous logos pretty much killed that theme for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBubba Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I really liked your update, but put that cannon-thing on the red starred "C" as an alternate jersey, and WOW, you have a concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case, no one (myself or anyone else on this board) is capable of providing you a critique of this because 90% of the artwork is not yours. In fact, if I wished to critique this, I would have to find the artist who created the Boston Cannons logo and provide them with the critique.It's basically the equivalent of trying to critique this painting: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
