Panthers Guest Concept And Monochrome Sharks

Florida Panthers, by Justin S:

We start off today with a unique Panthers De-Edge concept by Justin.  The unique part of this concept are the claw marks on the sleeves.  Those claw marks are basically the only stripes on the jerseys, as the sleeve cuffs would disappear under the gloves and the blue along the hem would blend into the pants (assuming these jerseys would still go with blue pants).  I think that's a good decision, if you going with something unique like the claw marks you might as well make it the main feature of the concept.  There are a few things I would change though, first of all I'd keep the white outline around the main logo on the red jersey, and I'd also change the name and numbers on the white jersey to red.  The yellow numbers just aren't bold enough in my opinion, and I also think the white jersey is currently lacking red which would be helped by the red numbers.  I noticed one execution error, there appears to be another jersey underneath of the red jersey.  You can see this at the end of a couple of the sleeves and also by the collar.  A quick check when you complete a concept should catch those minor errors.

San Jose Sharks Third:

Back when I was doing my De-Edge Series I tried a Sharks third jersey concept using just teal and white.  I ended up going with a black third jersey instead, but the idea of a monochrome jersey for the Sharks stuck in my head.  The striping pattern is inspired a bit by the striping pattern on their new jerseys (non-symmetrical sleeve stripes, no real hem stripes), but I did add sleeve cuffs and hem trim.
