Lapwings concept

Well this has been awhile since i've sat down, and done this project. But remember this? I decided to work on it, because it was bugging me about not finishing.

I never could get the body just right, but finally I got it down. The request was a bird skating, seen below. I decided to just throw some other things in there like a circle crest, alt logo, and script.

I'm gonna email the team, and see what's up, and if they want to change some things. But there it is!


Also, maybe big news coming to this blog? Stay tuned.

Slapshot concepts

Here's the lo down. I watched slapshot, and was amazed by the jerseys, and decided to make a league out of the teams. I would put each team on an rbk edge template. I did 2, and never went back. Here's the Chiefs, and Bulldogs. Enjoy!

It's a great movie if you've never seen it. I might look up some other stuff I never posted. C&C

Longo face logo


Sorry guys, school baseball and my girlfriend. 3 reasons I haven't done much postable* concepts.

On the boards, one of the best designers is offering free design help. Tutorial 1 is making people like logos. So if you wanted to do a head of a gladiator, this is how you would do it. He told people to take a random celebrity, follow his steps, and post the results. Here's my shot. Obviously, it's Evan Longoria.
I'll post these for a while. I don't really have much, but I might post a random crap post. Stay tuned

*Postable as in, I'm 20 into a 32 part concept series. I'll be done shortly. Prepare yourself.

Another Fantasy Hockey Identity



Hey gang, and Happy Holidays!

So this guy in the BayMen's league didn't really have an actual logo set. He just used an outline of Alaska, with the big dipper stars inside. So I offered to do him a logo set.

I was messing around with colours, and stumbled upon this beautiful scheme. I'm a sucker for 2 shades of brown. But I just threw some elements together, because all he said was he wanted was an outline of Alaska with the stars, so I did it. Here's the logos.

I decided to put the Alaska flag in there, so I could put it as a shoulder patch in the jerseys. They have an older style, just stripes and stuff. The number font matches the script. Hmm nothing that crazy. Enjoy!
So C&C please!

San Francisco Bay Men Identity

Here's the identity of my new fantasy hockey team I took over recently.

Alright, first off, props go out to Firefly for the original set, which I updated.

I chose the colours based off a few things. Navy, and aqua for the water, and orange which is for the Golden Gate bridge, and the Giants. The primary logo is Firefly's logo, updated with my colours and script. The SF alt is based off his, which had SF on an anchor. I did the same. Not really much to say...

I went with a non RBK edge cut with the jersey, and kinda made up a design. I call the alternate, the Golden Gate alt. I call it that because It uses the bridge logo, and the orange colour. The partial logo is the main logo on the crest.



So how'd I do? Comment below.

Moar Fan Art!

Hey guys. Our friend Jon sent in some more concepts for the Big 10! This time it was Northwestern, and the Gophers.

Northwestern, he put some steeler stripes on the sleeves, and added a black alt. He put the N logo with a wildcat on the shell. Hmm if you comment, and point out anything else do it.
Gopher time! So some Colt type stripes going on here, instead of the crappy piping. The one thing that sticks out is the cool yellow alt. Pretty creative there. He made a white helmet, which is new. Pretty good if you ask me.
So leave a comment, and tell us how Jon did! Send in your art, and it WILL get posted.

Update on my projects, I'm just messing with a few things at a time, and will try to get some posts this weekend.
