Random Selections

More new concept art! I'm on a roll this week! So Monday we did California and Tuesday was Vancouver. Today I decided to be completely random. And the teams that came out of the hat were the Boston Bruins, Minnesota Wild and St. Louis Blues. So we'll have fan-designed logos and uniforms for those three teams for now.

I really like the new retro-looking secondary Bruins logo. But you shouldn't do this to it.



If you think it doesn't get worse, you're wrong.



Moving away from scary things now, we have some fans' suggestions for the retooling of the Wild jerseys.



I have to say as much as I like what they have now, that one on the left is really sharp too. The green shoulders are great. I'm not sure how I feel about the circle logo on the white jersey. Feels to me like it's getting lost. And then for a complete change of pace, consider a green sweater with the circle logo.



For one thing, that's a terrible green. But I think last year's green jersey is far superior. There's not enough green in this league.

These next two sketches were designed for the St. Louis Blues on the idea of what the NHL really meant for the jerseys to look like on the players. Of course this is only feasible in cartoon land.



In any other land, it's disproportionate and anatomically impossible. Sharp work, though.

I think we'll do some more randomly chosen teams tomorrow. I've still got over a hundred items in my inbox that need to be posted. By the way, you guys are awesome for continuing to send stuff in. You don't know how much I appreciate it.

Concepts Gallery Updated

Just made wholesale updates to the Concepts Gallery. Activity had been pretty dormant for a while so I figured I'd get some new images up there. All told, I added about 150 images this afternoon, most of which have been featured here on the blog. Others are exclusive to the gallery.

By the way, if you've sent me artwork in the last several weeks and it hasn't been added to the gallery yet, fret not. It simply means I'm considering it for future posting on the blog. After I've posted it on the blog, I'll add it to the Concepts Gallery.

Peruse that for a while if you're bored and feel free to leave comments on the images you see there.
