oldschoolvikings Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 OK, here is another Baltimore Ravens' concept. I think this is the 3rd I've posted. To me, this team is a tough one to get myself happy with. Let me know what you think. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/
JTswag187 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 This is extremely creative and out of the box, but purple pants ain't a good thing for the ravens. I like it, but not for this team. the menacing look of the ravens is lost here
EvanBirchfield Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 You did a nice Job but honestly I think the Ravens have one of the cooler unique looks in the league I wouldn't touch them.
slapshot Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Purple and gold is a very unique color scheme, and it's virtually owned by the Vikings. The Ravens "own" purple and black, and by playing up the gold as much as you have, especially with purple pants, makes this seem more of a Vikings concept than a Ravens one.For a team with cool (temperature-wise) colors, I'm surprised the Ravens haven't tried to replace gold with silver. Purple-silver-black (and a touch of red) would generate a darker feel than with gold. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016
Est1980 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Good job on the logo. Have you tried swapping the white with gold (moon)?

Gold is a completely different color in itself, which works very different in the scheme of colors.The only thing I have to say is that the logo looks very outdated and 80's Atari style. I don't really have any problem with the ravens uniforms and I love their logo. I just hate when they play lol. Colorado Born and Raised!!

Gold is a completely different color in itself, which works very different in the scheme of colors.In athletic team identities, yellow and gold are nearly identical especially when you're comparing each one paired with purple. The Ravens use of metallic/old gold helps distinguish them, but if they went with simply gold, they would indeed resemble the Vikings color scheme way too much. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall

ingmar66 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 The helmet reminds me of the WFL or USFL in some sort of way. I like it, but not for the Baltimore Ravens, more for some high school team (be it with a white moon). The uniforms are very cool, but like it was stated above, the Ravens already have nice uniforms as long as they do not wear their monochrome black on black (which looks silly). Substitute gold with grey in the shirts and change the white pants to grey pants with a black/grey/purple stripe and you have very nice uniforms for K-State.
JRB14 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I'm honestly surprised I'm the first one to post this: These uniforms scream Seahawks.I feel these would be a great faux-back for Seattle if you change purple with blue, gold with wolf grey, and black with lime green, with some exceptions of course. I love the idea, especially if vintage was the look you were going for. But it looks too much like the Seahawks, with the shoulder stripes extending to the next horizontally as the Seahawks new uniforms do, also with the back of the logo extending to the other side of the helmet. Make a few minor changes, take those stripes off and maybe change gold to silver. Love it otherwise.
nuordr Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I love the pants, the stripes, but the logo on the helmet needs some more work. I like how you are thinking outside the box.
oldschoolvikings Posted January 7, 2014 Author Posted January 7, 2014 just not a fan of the helmet....I also hate the helmetHe just said "not a fan"... you were the first to go all the way to "hate" OK... here is the uniform with a different helmet. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/
FALCON6 Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 That logo rocks. It's not dumb and cartoony, it's a good raven with a pose that's great. Uniforms are too stripy, but your of to a tremendous start.
JJHoser Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Sorry but the logo on the helmet just looks too outdated to me. Colorado Born and Raised!!
Soarindude Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I like the concept but I defenitely agree with changing the gold to silver/chrome/grey. Any of those colors would do, other than grey. Not sure I really like the purple pants for the away uniform either. Somehow allow the away to match up better with a black set (versus purple). I like the helmet, it's unique and not typical whatsoever. Maybe adding a primary logo to the sides of the jersey would make it look sharp. I like the helmet logo as a secondary logo though.
AlexInHBurg Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 These are pretty good, I like the addition of gold. Just curious, what program do you use? DALLAS STARS INDIANAPOLIS COLTS WASHINGTON WIZARDS NEW YORK YANKEES
oldschoolvikings Posted January 8, 2014 Author Posted January 8, 2014 These are pretty good, I like the addition of gold. Just curious, what program do you use?It's just plain old Paint. I know it's weird... I've got Illustrator and Photoshop (and Inkscape, too, I think) and I use those for work stuff, but to make uniform concepts I've just always used the clunky Paint program that comes with the computer. There's something about the "manual labor" involved in dealing with that old program that helps my creative process, I guess. Ask my wife, to call me a creature of habit is an extreme understatement. In fact, I have a copy of the prehistoric Paint program from Windows 92 (!!!) that I burned off my ancient desktop 20 years ago,and I used to load it on to every new computer I got, until the upgrades could no longer recognize it. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/
EJ_Barlik Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 to clarify, I like the current logo, (or else a newly set "BR" on a diagonal in the current "B" font) on the helmet. I think the gold/purple/black is fine I just love penguins......always dressed for the occasion.
YelichGraphics Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 put the b on that helmet and you got a winner
