colinturner95 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 After my first start at Pro Combats went off the deep end, I waited until I finished finals and I took a few days to get used to .svgs and Inkscape,(which I did). So I started over, starting with Miami (FL)ACCMiami Hurricanes, Miami 2, Miami 3Florida StateNorth CarolinaSyracuseVirginia TechBig 10+2MichiganMichigan StateOhio State, Ohio State 2Big EastLouivillePittBig XIITexasTCUFBS IndependentsArmyNavyNotre DameMtn. WestAir ForceBoise StatePac-12CalOregon Ducks,Oregon 2,Oregon 3, Oregon 4UtahSECFlorida Gators,Florida 2Georgia, Georgia 2KentuckyMizzou TigersTennesseeThe helmet stripes are reversed, (Orange/Green/Orange), and the facemask is now orange. I'm against grey facemasks on white helmets for some reason. Anyways, the jersey is orange with green palm tree patterns on the swatches. On the chest is the Miami wordmark and the number is similar to the 2010 Pro Combat ones. The pants are white with a green stripe with the palm tree pattern. The socks are orange and the shoes are orange and do that Nike fade to green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 While I'm not a huge fan of the striping. I could 100% see this being a NPC uniform. So in that matter, really good job!As far as C&C, I might change the shoulder panels to green/light green instead of green/orange to be consistent with the other places you have the palm tree pattern.

knnhrvy16 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I dig it! I think the one critique I have would be to make the numbers a bit smaller. Other than that, I really like the design. Nice work! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

drdougfresh Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 This is much cleaner so far, so nice work. I do have a couple issues with this, though. You may want to edit the Flywire lines, they should be a transparent overlay, not a solid gradient like they are right now. I also agree with JP on the shoulders, they feel disconnected from the pants with that shoulder design.My biggest issue here, though, is that these look strikingly similar to the Pro Combat unis they wore last year. While I loved that set, this just makes me miss the green helmet and orange pants. I would try to take it in a more original direction, one that is not so heavily influenced by a past NPC set.

colinturner95 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 Here's an update, i think. The '70s for the 'Canes was the, how-you-say, kick off to the turnaround of Hurricane football, so this is an Orange-Out (I first for Miami, IIRC), and the jersey has shoulder "racing stripes", and the pants have a triple stripe. I love the palm pattern, but this hit me as cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin W. Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I'd give it a white facemask.

knnhrvy16 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Put a palm pattern on the numbers like you did for the numbers in your other set (so basically, slightly darker than the white), and change the facemask to white, then I think you'll have a winner. I really like the look of what you've got here. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only.

Enio125 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Way too much orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Orange overload and inconsistent striping (helmet is different than jersey and pants). I prefer the helmet striping pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody21 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Miami Updates take the jersey and striping from the first and combine it with the pants from the second and you have a winner! In the last game against Detroit, the time from ten minutes left to one minute left was probably the longest nine minutes of my life. But from one to zero was probably the greatest time I've ever had. I didn't want the clock to run out. It was such a great feeling: people crying in the stands, people jumping up and down, people cheering. Guys couldn't even sit up on the bench. It was probably the best minute of my life.Ah, the "I'm kidding" - the universal internet excuse for saying something that others perceived as dumb.

colinturner95 Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Question: Do I go with orange or white pants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I have to completely honest, I don't mind the orange monochrome at all. I mean, vibrant orange fits for a Miami team. If it were any other team (save Clemson, maybe), I don't think I'd be for it. But for the Hurricanes, I think it works great. My honest and humble choice would be orange pants. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Kevin W. Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 What if you combined the two? Put a sublimated palm print in the triple stripe.

lightning25 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 I'd suggest making the outline to the number the same color as the darker green. The black just looks out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think the numbers need a white outline. Green on orange has legibility issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinturner95 Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm stuck on the pants. Every time I try the sublimated palm print on the triple stripe, it turns out horrible. So...I'm leaving it up to you guys: Do i go with the triple stripe or the palm print? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
