Hopefully it was visually obvious.It was for me, but idk how easy it will be for fans of other teams.

TimEOBrien Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 After a weekend of love over at UW, I'm back with some more designs...Detroit:No change, home or road. The third is a 'heritage' design that honors elements of past uniforms while incorporating some modern and all new elements.HOME | ROAD | THIRD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimEOBrien Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Ok, so I've decided to start designing some logos and unis for former NHL teams and this is the first in that series.California Seals:The Seals, in their California incarnation in particularly, had great colors and unis, but the logo reminded me more of a bird with a fish head than a seal. So I tried to remedy that with an updated logo and script.The unis are basically just updates of previous unis and the Third is a fauxback as well, but I couldn't decide which set to go with, the white-less set (which could be against NHL uni rules, IDK) or the set that is all in the same template but moves the yellow to the third uni. Help me decide, which do you like? LOGO | CREST | HOME | ROAD (or maybe the third) | maybe ROAD | THIRDor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesfan16 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Not feeling the Detroit 3rd(back numbers, hates scripts on front of hockey jerseys), but that Seals concept is BEAUTIFUL! I think the green jersey, the white jersey, and the sea green throwback as a 3rd is my favorite jerseys of the concept. So, to answer your question, a combination of the two options you presented .

BigBubba Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I'm really diggin' that second Seals set. A logo with an actual seal, not some abstract sushi shape. As for the first, if you really want to use the script as a jersey, make it white (switch the teal and white) because that look is too flamboyant. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

TimEOBrien Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 DEFUNCT TEAM SERIESQuebec Nordiques:I think the old Nordiques logo is a trainwreck. Now, I understand that, design aside, people love the 'Diques logo, so - just like the Seals - I tried to update the logo while improving the design.From what I gather, the old logo was a mashup of an N, an igloo and a hockey stick and puck. First, I rid the logo of the hockey equipment (we know you play hockey) and I give the logo a much more ballanced overall shape. The door to the igloo is framed by an N for Nordiques and also appears as an entrance to a stereotypical igloo.The home and road unis are pretty much just updates but the third is an homage to the flag of Quebec.

BigBubba Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Very nice, but I'd move the "n"/opening over to the left so that it sticks out and adds depth to the logo. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlem27 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I agree with big bubba and also I would add the stick and puck to the right hand side of the logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 On the alt, maybe try narrowing the white cross just a little bit? It seems like white overkill right now, but the idea is good.
