Every time you post an Eagles concept I'm reminded of how great kelly/gray is.

The concept itself is nice, but I’ve never seen a Kelly green Eagles concept that I wouldn’t like better with a darker midnight green. Currently it leans a little too blue, but midnight green is the way to go, IMO.

I think it's the helmet that really draws me into the kelly green.  I always thought the shell was so nice (and I also preferred that wing).  They never quite nailed the jersey.  They went from far too much sleeve striping (and too large of holes) to black trim.  The Cunningham-era black trim was servicable, but it just looks so nice with gray trim.  That throwback concept on the right is nearly* perfect.

 

*I'm not a fan of the white stripe at the bottom of the sleeve.  The early 1980s thick white stripe did not work and I would not emulate it.  Otherwise, (Take my money now meme).

Well, I'm just trying to be a relatively accurate (as possible with the modern jersey cut) with that throwback as I can be.  Obviously, if that were to become the main primary you'd have to adjust a few things.

Admittedly, I didn't think of it as a "throwback" (which I should have considering it's a third...).  Of course, taking that, minus the white stripe, making a white version, and calling them both primaries would be perfection.

I don't love the Patriots' color rush uniform like so many people seem to.  Obviously, I hate the matching pants and jerseys, but also I just think the design is sort of plain. And I don't think basic UCLA stripes look good at all on the Nike template. However, there seems to be some momentum for it, so I thought I'd see if I could warp it a bit to make myself happy.

Hey @oldschoolvikings, I’d love to see you create a set for the Cardinals based on the Desert Cardinal, a species that is actually indigenous to Arizona.

Thanks! I feel like Nike would have a field day with this color palette. Can you post the recolored logo by itself?

So this color scheme used somewhere, and I was just looking for a team to apply it to,,,

I feel that the use of red should be flipped to a tertiary color. Seems to overpower the purple, in the case of the Ravens. I do like the chosen font for the numerals.

 

But, this set would be interesting if repurposed for the Falcons as a fauxback, of sorts. Replace the purple with black, and it would make sense.

Looks good. I really like the simplicity of the stripes on the jersey. The only change I would like to see would be to use black socks with the home uniform, but that’s a minor nitpick.

 

Also, I can appreciate the creativity of the Cardinals and Ravens but... yikes. There’s som potential with the AZ color scheme, but the grey/brown needs tweaking. It’s very “pukey”. Its got too much green in it.

Yeah, I get why the black socks would be nice, I just feel like sometimes it would be easier to not even give them the leotard option.  They just can't be trusted.
