strobe_z 1 Posted June 12, 2012 With all the love that's been pouring out over the simple old-school maple leaf on our Centenary kits, I was inspired to put this together... Comments welcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ted 1,401 Posted June 13, 2012 Now that is a sweet crest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alberta white 10 Posted June 13, 2012 Now that is a sweet crest. I like it too, but the ball sems to be apologising for itself; hiding bashfully behind the leaf and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strobe_z 1 Posted June 13, 2012 Nice of AW to point that out. We always seem to try to have the maple leaf stand behind the ball... and I tried that, but honestly the semi-unique shape of the umbro-retro-kit-inspired leaf made it hard to have the ball in front. It was either too small, or cut off enough of the leaf that it wasn't clear it was a maple leaf. Then I thought... jeez... this is the Canada crest. Let's make the ball hide behind the freakin' maple leaf for once... and there you go~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strobe_z 1 Posted June 14, 2012 btw Ted... that is one sweet Lake Side Buoys crest... Don't suppose you could get my hands on a HQ Victoria Highlanders one so I could lift that celtic pattern and give it a fantasy go? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ted 1,401 Posted June 15, 2012 btw Ted... that is one sweet Lake Side Buoys crest... Don't suppose you could get my hands on a HQ Victoria Highlanders one so I could lift that celtic pattern and give it a fantasy go? Hey, I thanked you here you talented SOB and the offer still stands for some sort of linky-advert on the webpage. I don't have any hi-res copies of the Highlanders crest (I just ripped one off the website to make LSB wallpapers.) Of course, I'm not terribly impressed with the crest as I find the celtic swirl a little over-done. I'd rather see a claymore impaling a ball like the Evil Empire badge from the Star Trek Mirror Universe. But that's just me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
