Penguins Guest Concept and a Wild Concept

Pittsburgh Penguins, by Jared:
This is Jared's first concept on SG-94 and it's also the first hand drawn concept on this blog.  This concept is meant for the 2017-18 season.  The jersey features a gold shoulder yoke with the players name in the shoulder yoke like the Hurricanes current road jersey, as well as black and gold stripes along the hem and cuffs.  It also uses the Penguins' 1992-2002 primary logo as the main logo.  The execution might not be as good as we're used to seeing, but that will improve with more practice.  My advice to Jared is to just take your time and be patient while making concepts, if you rush too much the execution will suffer.
Grade:  B (I'm just grading the idea for this concept, not the execution).

Minnesota Wild:
Believe it or not this concept is actually inspired by the Boston Bruins 1948-51 white jersey.  I was watching a video clip of those jerseys in action and at first I didn't notice the yellow, so the jerseys appeared to be monochrome.  I soon noticed the yellow, but it gave me an idea for a concept based on what the striping pattern would look like if it was monochrome.  I didn't know what team I should make the concept for, but I eventually decided on the Wild (even though I like their current jerseys).

Have a good day!
