I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:what about this as a quick mock up?

that's class, I like the idea of a black crow, but this is near perfect otherwise.I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:
needs to do the rounds on twitter and facebook mate
I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:
Nice work! Im not big on any of the designs from the club, yours is much better
What annoys me most about the rubbish the club has put out this time is that they would have pissed thousands of dollars up the wall paying some hack marketing guru when all they needed to do was spend an afternoon on footy forums to see the fantastic mock designs of actual footy fans who often take inspiration from other passionate footy fans. I don't get why they don't do this...
Yep, you win. Now to get this to the club somehow..I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:
This is a win win. We pretty much keep the same white away guernsey and the club gets a variation to make more cash. Would still love a red option based on white and yellow one.
Can you extend the colours to the other wing of crow? Interested to see how that looks.I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:

Or have it *almost* catching up to the start of the hoops?

I've just had a go at that and it looks alright, but it kind of loses the the subtle throwback to the 'hooped' feathers of the old logo when you do that. The only real upside of having the hoops on both sides of the crow is that it allows for the hoops to continue onto the back of the jumper (like the current clash) without looking unbalanced.
Nah **** em. Those crappy designs should never have been an option. Opposition trolls are voting maliciously, so it balances out.
A Port fan must have written a bot.

Nah it wouldn't have been. This would have been from ISC who probably put a young designer in charge of giving five options.

This could work, but only really work with the black crow, which I'm not overly keen on using because we already have one non club colour being used (white). If you do this with the crow in navy, then the extra blue that would fill up the negative space between the wings means the crow shape isn't as strong. Might post the different variations (along with a couple of other designs) over on the FJGD board's jumper ideas thread, rather than in this thread which it really isn't suited to.

i think this is great. Throwback with a new twist and ties into WFAO branding rather than raptor
Can you mock it up with everything a bit larger? i.e. hope thickness and crow all a bit bigger. Essentially so the hoops are the same size as those on the home guernsey. Reckon this would be even better as it'd still be white enough but a bit stronger design with that bit more size to it
Edit: on 2nd look of the home guernserny that ay not work as the Crow would need to be so big that it wouldnt have enough length in the hoops.
BUT maybe keeping in line with the previous suggestion on the hoop going to the inner tip of the other wing, what would thicker hoops with the red on top rather than blue, then the red could go all the way through without the crow needing to be black perhaps?
Have you emailed your design to the club?

Anyone have a murder of crows in a large for sale. Will pay $120 and could throw in a large blk long sleeve. Never worn.
Similar story here. I've been wearing this guy to games this year. The colours are perfect, has the old logo and also has a nice feel being merino.
I got it from the crowmania online, have never seen them selling it at games.

My sister gave that to me for my birthday this year, best beanie ever it's so warm!
You have a gold heritage jumper from memory? Love those.
You bring up a good point about presents. There's a lot of people out there who aren't keen on anything with the raptor but how much stuff is being bought as presents from well meaning loved ones only to never be worn? So sales still look good, but customer satisfaction?

I have made it a bit bigger, but as you pointed out, the crow would be massive if you made it standard hoop size. Only just seen that hoop order change suggestion so I'll add that to my post on the FJGD jumper ideas thread in a minute, but it does actually work well!
I came up with something similar when I was messing around today:
I'm happy with the one we have. It's taken so long to get one that isn't awful. However, if we are going to change again, this is something I can get behind. Top work!

Yeah, I probably should have put it out there that I'm happy with the current clash jumper. Let ISC or any manufacturer screw around with the Alternate that we only see 2-3 times a year, but the clash needs to be traditional enough to be worn in a GF.

I've added these here for those that don't go on the guernsey design board
really like the 2nd and last, especially the last.
could also make for a good basis for a logo too! would be a great modernisation of the original with some tweaking (i reckon by angling the hoops like a trail to a swooping crow and tailing them off at the ends)
Posted this up on the crows board but it probably is worth a post on here too. Basically I tried to blend option D and E from the poll, with a subtle throwback to the old crows logo with the hooped feathers out the back.
There's also a couple of different variations based on suggestions from other members over there.
EDIT: just seen a suggestion from Tex Danger to fix up the design in the first spoiler by going with the colour order from this years clash, works a lot better.

Still want s black on black crows hat. I asked AFC about it the other day on Facebook and they tagged crowmania and said it was a question for them. 15 mins later my post was deleted....
