oz615 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 This concept i did like 2 months ago but in the wake of Tampa winning the Cupi thought that this was the perfect opportunity to post it,plus its also paying homage to Dave Andreychuk who finally after 20+ season in the leauge raises the Cup Lightning Alternate Jersey(C/P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frylock Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 I like this one! Really nice, clean, but different enough to stand out on the ice. It's a little similar to one I had posted back in January of '03, but yours is definitely a cleaner version. Here's mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckcool22 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 its a nice jersey , but there was always something about it i cant quite put my finger on, and i would not want tampa to wear itfrylock, that font is awesome, the lightning used it for like a year right?

UTampaSpar10 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 frylock on your concept did you create the origional lightning jersey font on your own or did you get it from a webiste. I've been looking everywhere for that font, their lightning font and their paintbrush script and I can't find them anywhere, is there any way you can send it to me?

TBGKon Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 the bolts paintbrush script was so sweet, i wish they hadnt ditched it for the boring stuff they got now.....at least they could have gotten something original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Eh, the paintbrush font kinda sucked. The original number font was great, though, gave the jerseys a unique look. The letters were a bit much, but a more standard letter font with those numbers would've been awesome. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

CDunn Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 This was done back during the Tampa Bay Lightning Project here, if not before. This was before I payed attention to making clean concepts so it's pretty rough but...Hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frylock Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 puckcool and UTampa -- Yep, I created that font myself. I took Roger Clemente's Penguins numbers and modified them for the orginial Lightning number font. For the letters, I modified Roger's basic letter font - or as I call it, the "CCM" font.It's all in a .bmp file, but if you guys want a copy, just PM me your e-mail address and I'll send it to ya! And for what it's worth, the Lightning used this font in 1992/93 and an italicized version in 1993/94... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroseed Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 With a bit of cleaning up, this has great potential. I've wondered a few times during the Stanley Cup Finals why the Lightning don't have a blue jersey. Or if they do, why I've never noticed it. It would certainly look much better than that black and white one they use now. Your idea here is a very good one, and I could see it working in the same way the Sabres jersey works now on a certain level. As I said, though, some cleaning up wouldn't hurt this concept. And I really wish the Bolts would get a new logo now that they've won the Cup... Here's to wishful thinking, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oz615 Posted June 11, 2004 Author Share Posted June 11, 2004 hey guys i just thought i post a revised version of my concept this time using the 92/93 jersey font w/ the same jerseyhttp://oscar_john.tripod.com/lightning_alt3.gif(C/P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Your first one has got to be my favorite Tampa Bay jersey created on this board. Definitely THE BEST out of any of the ones I have seen, I could really see them using this look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Um, oz615, it looks like you borrowed the striping from Sabre7200's old concept. Other than that its ok, a little busy. I'm sure the Lightning will get new unis within the next year or two anyway since they won the cup. And all you fair-weather fans with your Lightning avatars make me sick. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
