Jake88 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 So this is my entry into HJC's Fishstick comp. Dylan Wonka also has a concept with this, here. I already sent it in, so naturally no changes will be made. I would, however like to see how it is received by you guys. So comment away!Obviously the 4 stripes on the arm stand for the 4 cup victories, and they kinda replicate the logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWonka Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I definitely like the more white in this compared to mine. I honestly think the striping is almost perfect for what you're going for. (Adding the four stripes on the hem might get too busy, while having the four on the arms is a nice smaller touch). Until I see all the other entries, I will be putting this somewhere in my top 5 for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whittier S Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 The only thing I think when I read "four stripes for four Stanley Cups" is that the design becomes obsolete as soon as they win a fifth--or you're sending a subtle message that they're not going to win a fifth anytime soon.I don't understand how the blue stripe of the hem on the player's front right side is supposed to end. I like the taper on the back, and I'm wondering if it's supposed to do the same there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The taper on the back is unintentional, the mesh made it like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosox Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I've always been a big fan of the Fishsticks design. I'm really digging the teal outlines on the number/name/etc. I don't see the 4 stripes being an issue. If this was a real life situation, it could just be to honor the teams of that era, if they ever won a 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
