Guest Concept Post #67

Video Game Concepts, by Jared:

Today we have four concepts by Jared, including these three video game concepts.  All three of these concepts suffer from the same problem, which is that there is no real striping, instead the panels of the templates were just coloured different colours (that is often called "paint bucket syndrome" or "click-and-fill syndrome").  Also there are no real logos, just wordmarks made up of generic fonts slapped across the jerseys.  That generic wordmark is made worse on the Mii Maker jersey by the fact that it barely contrasts from the background (same with the name and number), it needs to either be a different colour or have an outline around it.

New York Islanders, by Jared:

Jared also sent in this Islanders concept, which unfortunately also suffers from "paint bucket syndrome" and the use of generic wordmarks.  I'm also not a fan of the idea of a black and grey for the Islanders, but that issue is secondary to those other problems.  I've always thought it was lazy to just colour in the panels on a template, and I feel the same about just writing out the team name instead of using a logo.  All of these concepts look rushed, they look like they only took a couple minutes to create.  In my opinion, if Jared wants to improve his concepts he needs to put in much more effort to create actual striping patterns, and take the time to find real logos to use on the front of the jerseys.
