HailGoldPants Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I recently wondered what it would be like if the original Broncos had come out with a helmet a little more imaginative than what they actually wore in 1960. Instead of just Photoshopping the idea, I actually made one. Let me know what you think (forgive my mediocre photography skills).........

AHcreative Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 This is actually really amazing. I'd love to see the Broncos break these out in real life. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Beauty!The Broncos would look great in that a few times a year, and I like the brown and yellow for them more than the orange and blue.

HailGoldPants Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 Thanks to you both...I busted my a** making this helmet, so I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one that thinks that it may be a OK design.

Bathysphere Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 This is an amazing effort! Would this be worn with the yellow and brown unis they brought back a few years ago? That would be sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieMoon Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Looks good! How would it look with a brown facemask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtrich11 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Did you order the stickers or did you somehow make them? Those stripes look legit and aren't electrical tape! cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailGoldPants Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 Did you order the stickers or did you somehow make them? Those stripes look legit and aren't electrical tape!I ordered them...they are the Real Deal Holyfield. This was the 4th helmet I've made and the biggest challenge for each of them may have been putting the stripes on and ensuring they're straight.

hugevolsfan Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Really nice work on this I have always felt since seeing this logo they could have dropped the goofy guy & just used the horse & it would be a really good logo.

dsaline97 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 That looks awesome! Where'd you get the logos? It looks great. It'd be interesting to see uniforms this could be worn with. Great job! Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 It's an amazing DIY helmet - looks professional and authentic. But as an aside, I've never understood that logo. The whole toothpick thing and the cowboy's expression make it look like he's totally laid back and unconcerned while riding the bronco. That would be appropriate if they were the Denver Broncbusters (mascot was the cowboy). But they're the Broncos, so the cowboy instead should look terrified, as if he knows he's going to need his nuts extracted from his neck when this ride is over. Why is there a cowboy at all? The horse by itself would make much more sense.The helmet is incredible but I don't get why the Broncos ever came up with that logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDGP Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I actually really like this. The helmet works great with the brown and yellow color scheme.This was the 4th helmet I've made and the biggest challenge for each of them may have been putting the stripes on and ensuring they're straight.Yeah, applying decals correctly to helmets is terrible. My school had a tradition where seniors had to apply the decals on all the teams helmets... Never again. With that being said, got a lot of respect for how professional those were placed on there. If i didn't extensively know the Broncos uniform history, I would absolutely believe that was a real helmet. I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!
