Islanders + Revamped Concepts

Sorry there hasn't been a post for a while. I've got one new concept today as well as some revamped ones.

I've used illustrator for a little while but never had a template I liked. I finally got one! So that is the main reason I am uploading these old concepts. Honestly, I think the template alone improves all of them.

New York Islanders

I think we can all agree that the Isles current third jersey is awful. I wanted to base this off of their four stripe pattern that represents their cup victories. I'm not that great of a logo designer but I put together one that really ties is an "island" or "nautical" theme. I couldn't create a decent light house logo so I brrowed one from King Creative Design. For the shoulder patches I used a simplified "NY" mark.
Version 2

I didn't think my logo came out too great so I also made one with the regular primary logo and anchor shoulder patches. Which version do you like better?



Philadelphia Flyers Fauxback

I made a few small changes but I think the template really improves this one.


Quebec Nordiques















  

Washington Capitals



Colorado Avalanche
You may have seen this but I really want to know what people think. Is this a good fix for the Avs?

Vancouver Canucks


I changed the striping up to create a more unique look.

I'm considering entering some of these in the HJC Open (depending on how far I make it). I was wondering which ones you like best, or which ones I could possibly use? 

Thanks for reading!

  1. I think you could use all of them in the HJC Open, but my favourites are the Caps, Avs and Flyers concepts. Good luck!

  2. I also think that the template helps. I've been using the same one alot as well. What program do you prefer to make your concepts with? I use paint.net, but I'm looking to experiment with other programs.

    1. Now that I have this template I've been using illustrator. I used pphotoshop before. Luckily, I got my brothers old copy of creative suite for free. If you could ever get creative suite (or just photoshop or illustrator) I think they are very beneficial. You could also download a trial or there are similar online programs.

  3. That template is the Reebok Authentic Jersey template right? I was just wondering since the stitching looked a bit thicker.

    1. Yes and no. It's a vector version for illustrator

    2. Would you mind sharing your template? I'm on Illustrator too and I'm kind of bored with my actual one (the one with the arms down alongside the torso)...

    3. Yeah, no problem. It's a good one. Would you also mind sharing yours as well? It's good to use sometimes.I have the jersey database one but I don't really like it. Email me at jncox9@gmail.com and I'll send it to you!
