JustAnothaVictim Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I'm in process of updating my webshots albums and added the following jersey: I want to customise this jersey with a fight strap and sewn on numbers and letters to make it a one of a kind jersey. The problem is, I don't have no clue what font I should or what colors to choose and I don't have the tools to make a lettering concept in this one. For the back #'s I was think of white with an orange drop shadow (Rangers Style) and a black stitch outline. I also want to keep the black stitching outline for the sleeve numbers but I don't know about the other 2 colors. Maybe white with a green drop shadow? Any Ideas? For the whole collection klick the link in my signature! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 What team is that? I always like drop shadowed numbers myself. You can't go wrong with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnothaVictim Posted February 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 What team is that?I always like drop shadowed numbers myself. You can't go wrong with that. That's the Ratingen Lions. The team doesn't exist anymore but Ratingen is my home town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 When I first saw the colors, the first thing that came to my mind was the Ducks even though it doesn't match anything they have ever had. As for the font, the drop shadow style you are thinking of would be a cool idea, another option is possibly coming up with some original font that hasn't been seen on a jersey. I am guessing you are gonna go with your name and favorite number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffB Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Here's a seller who has a lot of European club team jerseys that might give you an idea of what fonts are commonly used for jerseys from that area of the world. http://stores.ebay.com/EURO-HOCKEY-HALL-OF..._hockey-jerseys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lafountain Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Looks to be a pretty cool number font. Think it would look pretty cool in the color scheme you were thinking of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Drop shadow numbers rule! Those are nice because they are three color, unlike the Rangers two color ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What tool was used to make this? Now I'm thinking of making the number on the back white with a blck drop shadow (L.V. Thunder styles) with any orange outline. I need to experiment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffB Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 @JeffBWhat tool did you use to make this? Photoshop. I just selected a font and used the stroke tool a couple of times on the numbers. The photoshop stroke tool leaves a lot to be desired though. You'll notice if you look close on the sharp corners of the "1", that by the time you get to the outer color, it's pretty beveled/rounded off.

Yzerman fan Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 My family lives in Wertheim and I have some friends in Frankfurt....thus me being a big Lions fan...and Mannheim hater..lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRat Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 I think, I found something really cool looking. What do you think of this? Those Las Vegas Thunder jerseys (pre-polarbear) are probably my all-time favorite. I like their 93-95 stripe color scheme better than their 95-97 ones (what was pictured). The numbers are beautiful and the crest is nice and huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomZoom18 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Great collection! I like the Shanahan Whalers jersey. I didn't see any Sharks jerseys, are you going to add one later down the line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
