Assorted Quidditch Art

I'm just going to post a couple of things I've been working on for my Quidditch team at my school. (University of South Florida)


This was an initial design for our team to give ourselves jerseys and a newer more professional look. Kinda shot down the idea of putting a "C" on our captain's jersey, though. Unbalanced it too much. (Our school colors are green and gold and our mascot is the bull)


This is going to be the shield crest in the middle of our jerseys

Last semester our officers asked me to redesign our old logo:
So this is about what I came up with. For our shirts I figured this could sit on the front as a crest, breast pocket size and location.
 I tried to make the crest less about quidditch (at the request of our president to be different from other teams) and more about..our school, I guess. Subtlety, in my opinion, is best. Even the snitch wings at the top were mimicking our actual school logo, a U with horns:
I figured this would be our final logo, incorporating both Quidditch and our bull in minimalist fashion. Designed to be huge on the back of our shirts. (In my head, at least)



Just some stuff I've been working on. (More like consumed with, there's at least half a sketchbook filled with design after design trying to figure out what looks best)

And these are what I believe the officers decided the shirts will look like. ^

Brotherhood Build Part 2

So I finished the build. Here's the photoshoot. Enjoy, nonexistent followers.

 Details of the seams
 Apple of Eden? Also hood details
 Assassino!!

 I'm actually an art history person. This excited me.
 Details
 Breaking in?
 Candlelight vigil. Also pouch detail. Although far left one was open. >_<
 Some captain morgan poses
 Awesome caricature a cute guy in artists alley did of me and my friend.
 Awesome church.
 I actually did climb this building. You just can't see how far I am off the ground. lol.
 My friend who took the pictures said this was her favorite. I really like it too.
 Trying to show the button, but it flipped kind down.
 Moved the pauldron to show off the back.

 She liked all my details

 Yeah, I'm a girl.


 Another day. I was in the unfinished halo suit. There's also a guy in the silent hill nurse costume.

Brotherhood Build 1

So far I haven't taken many pictures of the build, but I'll upload what I have so far.

 I thought that getting boots was going to be a horrific ordeal, but I found these at goodwill for 4 bucks.
 The start of the belt.
 More pictures.
 Unifinished front.
 Mostly finished top.
 Finished the top part!!
 Hidden blade engineering.
 Pauldron. Just put the paper template I made under it so you could see the wire better. No armature mesh anywhere in town, and I didn't have time to order any.
 Vambraces.

 I'm aware of the flaws it has^ Hadn't started the swirl level yet.

 Everything nearly finished.

 Pauldron brooch.



Finished!!

As it stands, I still haven't taken pictures of most of the sewing, it looks really pretty though. The pauldrons and the vambraces are drying outside with the halo armour now, after that I'll sculpt all the stupid details.

Ezio's entire shoulder getup thing. I'll probably make some low-quality molds and cast the two smaller pieces since they are literally everywhere..

Nearly finished belt. There are way too many leaves, and im not even done yet.
 I actually dropped and cracked the pauldron in several places before I even got to paint it. Still too shiny at this point^
 Way too shiny. You can also see where it got hurt. :(
 Unfinished back.
 Vambrace was still too shiny.
 Cat likes sleeping on my expensive Ezio fabric, lol.
 Vambraces, finito! Just strapping and some backing, now.
 Back of the pauldron. Much better looking and more weathered. Still not too happy about it, but whatever.
Front of the pauldron. Yeah I know, my sub-par sculpting skills...more to come..
