RO_ Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Hey everyone, new guy here. I've lurked around this forum for a bit and I finally decided to make some concepts. I'm keeping with NFL rules, each team can have one helmet, up to three jerseys, three pants, and three socks (sorry, no throwbacks). My goal is to change at least something about every team. Some are only going to get small tweaks, others will get pretty big changes, and a couple of teams are going to get new color schemes. I'm not going in any particular order, and I started with the Dolphins.I should start off by saying that I do like their new uniforms. I like the new color palette, I like the all white look, I like that Nike already got their redesign out of the way so I don't have to worry about them changing to something like the Bucs for at least a few years. I like them, but they are a bit plain. My changes:-Whenever navy and orange touch I made sure that the orange was always more pronounced.-I gave them an asymmetrical pant stripe similar to what Jacksonville currently wears, I think it'd look pretty good in Miami's colors (minus the little triangles at the top and bottom).-Add the same striping pattern to the sleeves.-Striped socks to go with the aqua pants. Their current helmet stripe would look great on a sock, dunno why Nike didn't go with that..-Orange alt. Thought about a navy alt, but since navy isn't as pronounced anymore it didn't make much sense. Plus there's already a lot of navy out there.All white:Aqua over white:Aqua pants:Mono aqua:Orange alt:There you go. This is my first stab at a concept, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
tbdaniel15 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Very well put together. Can't wait to see what else you've done!
upperV03 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Only thing I wod recommend is to keep the pants for the orange jersey the same as the helmet stripe to be more consistent
derschwigg Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I dig it! Maybe the helmet stripe is a tad too wide, but these would be gorgeous on the field. Well done! My Portfolio | My Store | My Self
FALCON6 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Very nice. I like those stripes. May I see the template?
Philly's Phinest Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I love the simplicity of the sleeves. Very clean. Great concept!
Guest Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 This is not his template He traced Matt Willcox's template (or maybe Matt shared it with him, but I doubt it).
nuordr Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 That stripe on the pants needs to go from the waist to the bottom of the leg.
Evil G Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Very sleek concept. Like it. Bruh check out my last.fm And my Rate Your Music Fantasy Teams: Seattle Spacemen (CFA) Signature credit to Silent Wind of Doom
RO_ Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 Thanks for all the feedback. I meant to say something in my first post but it slipped my mind, but Chris is correct and it's not my template (also, most of the fonts are Conrad's). I found it in the Paint Users thread actually and modified it a bit in Photoshop. If I'm breaking any rules by using it please let me know. Again, thanks for the feedback, and I'll have the Vikings posted a little later today.
Guest darkpiranha Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Great start. Can't wait to see the rest.
RO_ Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 Alright, here are the Vikings. I think their new uniforms are pretty good so this is mostly me tweaking a few things. My changes:-Grey facemask, because I know how popular those are around here (I have my reasons).-Got rid of the serifs on the numbers and added gold outlines.-Gold NOB on the purple jersey.-Gave the pant striping the same treatment as the sleeves, with the stripe curling around the back.-Added stripes to the socks and added a white option to be worn with the purple pants.-Grey alt jersey and pants. A while back I was perusing the concepts here and I saw someone do an NFL/MLB crossover. His grey Vikings set looked awesome and I thought I'd try it out on their football unis.Home:Away:Purple pants:Mono purple:Home w/ grey pants:Away w/ grey pants:Mono grey:Enjoy.
TheFallenHaveRisen Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Grey's probably gonna get a lot of hate, but I love it personally
nuordr Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Thanks for proving to me that the current black facemask was the proper choice as that gray one sticks out like a sore thumb.
LAWeaver Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I like your gray options, but I'm not sold on the gray mask. I agree that the black is better @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos
Orange Crush Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I don't understand why you picked grey. I really like the concept, but the only thing about the Vikings that is grey is the facemask. Didn't yellow cross your mind? I'm not hating on you. I personally hate Seattle's grey jersey too. It's just like the stupid @$$ black alternate jerseys of the early 2000s. Cool concept tho.
