It's very unlikely that I will be doing i.e. the Packers, Steelers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I like these alot, they're not busy like their current uniforms. Great job, can't wait for more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texfischer Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 This is 10,000 times better than that mess they're wearing now, great work!! I would, however, like to see the full body Bengal, instead of the wordmark under the collar. I love the striped socks, as always. Maybe the collar on the orange jersey should be orange. Once again, great work! And, please do some minor tweaks to the Steelers, like the return to gray facemasks, and the block lettering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 A couple issues with what you've got so far (related to presentation)-- the stroke thickness on the back numbers is different than the front, and the shoulder stripes don't match from front to back.As far as uni design, I'm afraid you've downgraded from their current look. While not necessarily the most jaw-dropping look in the NFL, they now look like more like the Browns than ever-- not a good idea for an in-state rival. It has potential, but I think it needs a bit of refining and some more planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Progressively my concepts should look a lot more cleaner as the time goes onMy original idea was to modernize Cincy's uni's from the Corey Dillon era, which I personally believe was one of their better uniforms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Aware Eagle Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I agree that this might look a little too much like the Browns. But you've still put together a nice-looking set. I look forward to the rest of your series! Yes, I root for teams all over the place. And I apparently favor birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmejia Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Nice job. I really like the large numbers on the back and the shade of orange you've chosen. It has a nice modern feel, yet vintage at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyundaddy279 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 UPDATESo after hearing how much the Bengals resembled the Browns, I decided to try out the Bengals current number font since everyone's more used to seeing it. I also added the NFL logos, and I put the full body bengal on the back of the jersey, right below the collar. Many teams (Cardinals, Bills, Vikings, etc.) have it, and I believe the Bengals can have it since their main logo isn't on their helmets. I'd like to hear your guyses opinions before I make this a permanent change. ThanksAnd by the way, next up on my concepts is Denver, then probably Philly (which should be receiving a lot of hate/love) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 It's an interesting update, but I think it misses the biggest issue, and in fact, created a few more. In doing this, the nameplate is much lower, thus the number is way too far down the back of the uniform. On a lot of guys, half their number would be missing when tucked in. I think the best way to address this is to take it more in the direction of the photo you posted, a little bolder. It still says Browns to me.

GFB Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I think the idea is there... But I would try something with almost zero white. Just black and orange. There should be enough contract between the two to pull it off.Also, fix the helmet. You need some more stripes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think the bengal needs to be on the back of the jersey. Please clean up this whole set before moving on, this has great potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuordr Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 The update still does not help out that much because of the striping on the uniform. The issue with the Bengals current set is the white panels under the arms, if those were removed it would a fantastic set IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 On that Nike template, the numbers never go past the seam. Both numbers (front and back) run into the seam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
