derschwigg Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Here's my initial render for the fictional London Black Knights for the Madden 26 contest. Thoughts and C&C appreciated! Note: I'll be filling in the grey box between the H and the T. I just now saw it. My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I can dig it. How does it look on a helmet? That's my only concern — seems a little tall and not very wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my only concern — seems a little tall and not very wide.I just threw this together - likely not the final designEDIT - if on a black helmet, I'd replace the gray outline with white.

pianoknight Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 What about making the sword be the stripe itself? And then a wordmark or numbers on the side? 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

EvanBirchfield Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 The only thing I don't like is the name. NFL teams if you notice are never the Atlanta Red Falcons or Minnesota Purple Vikings... London Knights seems a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyolaProp1 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm not a fan for some reason. I recognize it is supposed to make an L shape with the sword and shadow, but it feels a little empty to me, at least on the helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL teams if you notice are never the Atlanta Red Falcons or Minnesota Purple Vikings... London Knights seems a lot better.That was the name on their "suggested" list. I agree with you, but that's not what they provided.In the mean time, I got the field made! My Portfolio | My Store | My Self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyolaProp1 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I really like that London wordmark on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTL Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'd say get rid of the L logo and put a forward facing sword on the helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep the actual logo itself, but I feel like the sword would look better facing forward on the helmet (like how Arizona State does their trident) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the L logo has too much negative space, it makes the helmet look lopsided. It needs to be more pronounced or symmetrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
