Fan Art pt2

Back again with some fan art! First is a 3rd jersey for the Phoenix Coyotes. Last week, Chris at icethetics posted a leak of the jersey, check it out. So our friend Anthony made a concept, using the 2 new logos.Kinda sketchy, but it's cool, I guess. Next is 2 concepts for the NCAA, by CammaD, over at Touch Down Design. First is one for Alabama.Pretty good, he also made on for Princeton, but it wont load, ill post it later. Go Rays!

PBH Concepts

Hey guys, I know, most of you plan to do concepts, but I decided to post my first one. I thought I'd use a more classic striping pattern, but Fernando Emailed me and said that the jerseys can get sublimated, which lets the designers get more creative. But I was almost done, so I decided I'll just make another one. So without farther adu, here's the jersey set I made.I made a third, black jersey, just for the fun of it, since the Portugal Soccer team has a black set. I also really like the logo. So if you want to join the contest, email me your designs. I also have some fan art to post, so stay tuned.Hey, I finished my second concept, with pipingI like that a lot more than the first one. I have fan art to post, stay tuned, and go rays!

Portugese Ball Hockey?

Hey guys, no art now, but I have something that you guys might be interested in. I got an email from a reader named Fernando, about rebranding the Portugese National Ball Hockey . I'm serious, here's the email
Mykl,

My name is Fernando I am a committee member on the PBHA (Portuguese Ball Hockey Association). We have been in existence for the last 6 years. This is my first year. My reason for contacting you is I was hoping that you or anyone of your fellow readers would like to take a stab at designing our Association Logo as well as our uniforms. I understand that you are a super busy guy so I will not take up to much of your time. If you happen to be interested please let me know and I can give you a little more information in regards to the country and the sport of Ball Hockey.

Thanks,

Fernando de Menezes
and this is what he needs
Okay what we need is a Jersey. Preferably a home and an away. And we need a logo for the Association. Our current logo is pretty lame. Also a Ball hockey uniform is made up of a regular hockey jersey. Soccer shorts and socks

So are you guys up to the challenge? Any questions on this, comment, or email me
I have some fan art, I'll post later. Stay tuned. I whipped up an easy template for some of you.

Rebrand Requests

Hey all. Got an email by a reader requesting some rebrands. He asked for the U of Georgia, Vanderbilt U, and the Denver Broncos. So I just finished the Rebrand for the Vandy Commodores. I must say, it looks fantastic. Here it is.I love the Anchor logo. If your wondering why an anchor? a Commodore is a rank in the Navy, which is what Cornelius Vanderbilt was. I just finished the rebrand of the Georgia Bulldogs. I didn't want to use the "Green Bay, Grambling state" G logo, so I made an interlocking UGA logo, turned out OK, I guessThe primary looks better on my sketch pad, but I think it works. I also added a new "Uga" bulldog logo. I might have a RtMLB series done tomorrow. So stay tuned, and root for the Rays!

The state of RtMLB

hey everyone, I decided to do some things to the RtMLB Series. I decided to delete my ones for the Mets, Rays, Cubs, and Giants. I just wasn't happy with them. I'll also add a picture in the sidebar on where we are in the project. So that'll be up today. I also have a design for the Diamond Backs, Jays, and Orioles. So come back later.

My take on more NHL thirds

Hey everyone. I have my take on some new NHL thirds. First is my concept for the Penguins. Here's what Chris described it as on Icethetics.
Kudos to the Penguins for staying with the jersey the club wore during the Outdoor Classic in Buffalo last Jan. 1st. It’s a replica of the home jersey the Penguins wore starting in 1968-69, their second year in the NHL: Predominantly light-blue in color, with broad white stripes trimmed in dark blue on the sleeves and uniform base. A large, dark-blue stripe is at the tip of each arm. The neckline is dark-blue with the lace-up feature. The dark-blue, circular Penguins' logo is on the front.

I'm perfectly fine with them doing that. But I'd like it if they made it more modern, like what the Sabers did, with their third. So I added piping, and changed it up a bit, and I really like how it turned out.I also changed the logo, i added a light blue outline to the letters, and changed the penguins triangle from yellow, to Vegas gold. Moving on. I have one for the Canucks. Chris had a leak of the jersey on icethetics. It was basically as he described it.
The Canucks are going back to their inception in 1970-71 by bringing back the predominantly blue road jersey the club wore. At the bottom of the jersey – and on each arm – is a broad green stripe flanked by a pair of white stripes. The club’s original “hockey-stick-in-a-rink” logo is outlined in green and white on the front.

I don't like the rink logo, but I love the Canuck V logo. So I used it. I also used an unused logo for the team. I also made the jersey green, since no other team has a green jersey.Nothing big. That's all the hockey concepts for now. I'll post another fantasy football concept later today. Hopefully the Rays will win tonight. Send in your concepts and, they will get posted.
