turbo72577 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I see so many here redesigning the NFL (and very well I might add) so I wanted to do something a little different. This is a redesign of the CFL. The CFL is comprised of eight teams, soon to be nine with the addition of Ottawa in 2014. C&C welcomed and appreciated. First up is the British Columbia Lions.

officeglenn Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Sorry, but just the claw scratches don't work as a logo by themselves. If you want to work them in as a design element somewhere, fine, but they really don't look good on a helmet by themselves.Also, I'm not crazy about the emphasis of black over orange with the side panels and the pants. The Lions were going that way in the 1990s and early 2000s, but when the league-wide redesign happened a few years ago, they worked in more orange, with an orange jersey and orange pants in their set, and toned down the black, and I thought they looked much better for it. That shade of orange they went really looks good on TV, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16kid Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 It's nice to say a CFL concept on. BC has one of the best jerseys in the league and I think there original jerseys are better then the concept. I'm looking forward to some more of your concepts on the rest of the league, good luck!

Edubdesign Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Use the claw scratches...as shoulder stripes. That will look much more unique than what you've got now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo72577 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Thanks for the feedback. I reworked things quite a bit. I made the orange closer to what they wear now and made the black more subtle. I also used an existing logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbuk Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Ohh I love cfl concepts.. We don't see enough, cannot wait for the Eskimos one..I prefer the 2nd one, white lid with orange paw is Better..First effort looked to much like the current Calgary template, re coloured..Looking forward to the rest of these!

turbo72577 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Although it seems rather unpopular, I still prefer the claw marks on the helmet. I wanted to steer away from the "typical" logo style seen on most helmets. This is in the vein of what the Vikings, Rams, Eagles, and Bengals do with their helmets. Calgary is up next as I'm going alphabetically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbuk Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I actually didn't mind the claw mark on the lid.. Just the jersey design.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDLions Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I like the update much better. Looks really classy. The only thing I dont like is the two toned colar, change it to just black and they would be perfect. Also with the update, white or orange pants on the road?

BigRed618 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 You're getting closer with the update. I would make the facemask black to match the trim of the jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbo72577 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wasn't happy with it in red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo72577 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Next up...the Edmonton Eskimos. This one was tricky. Seeing as how they resemble the GB Packers (my favorite team) so much (more so in the past than now) it was difficult to find that right medium between what they look like now, how they've looked in the past, what I'd like to see, and trying to not make them identical to the Packers.

cmbuk Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Eskimos have to have yellow numbers.. It's a huge factor in seperating them from GBIf you could add a EE to the sleeves that would complete a very good home set.. ( maybe even a white mask )As for the roads.. Again.. Solid.. Add the EE to the sleeves and its a fan favourite I wouldn't mind seeing what the current road jersey looks like without the green side panel and shoulders.. Just the green sleeves.. Think it would be something different.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDLions Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Stampeders look good, but I think red away pants might look cool.Eskimos are ok, I agree about the yellow numbers, on both home and away I think. Also the EE logo on the pants being turned drives me crazy haha, I would turn it so it is legible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo72577 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Well, I turned the EE on the pants and added it to the sleeves and made the facemasks white. Yeah, good change. Thanks for the suggestions. One thing I could not do was make the numbers yellow. I just couldn't do it. I also tried to make the away jersey sleeves green but it just threw things off.
