Post-Olympic Extras
/Had a few leftovers from the Olympic Spirit series that ran during the Vancouver Games.
That wraps things up for the Olympic series. More in 2014!

I promised one final Olympic concept post. I meant to have it ready Sunday, but as you can see time sort of got away from me. So here's some of the last of the international artwork series.
It's not over yet. In the next update to this post, I'll add all of the remaining Olympic artwork for your enjoyment. Stay tuned for that.
You guys are clearly loving this Olympic concept art, so here's even more!
And as always, there's more art on tap. In the next day or so, look for more USA concepts plus one from a country that didn't even send a single athlete to Vancouver this year.
The international concepts are still flying in. If you haven't seen yours posted yet, don't worry, I'll get to it. Here are a few more.
Expect part four of the Olympic Spirit series this weekend as the hockey tournament, and the Olympics in general, wraps up.
This is an extension of Thursday's post. Concept art has just been flying in over the last couple of days and some of it is pretty awesome!
I've still got more artwork waiting in the wings. Keep checking back for updates!
As promised, I've got more international concept art to share with you this evening as we all enjoy the U.S. and Canada here in the prelims. As I write this, they're getting the second period underway.
The prolific Jared LeBlanc didn't leave out the United States in his collection of Olympic-flavored uniform artwork. Here's his set with a dark blue third jersey. I don't care much for the USA Hockey logo — and I'm glad to see it's nowhere to be found at the Vancouver Games... |

...But I do like the U.S. shield used in 1976. Eric Westhaver has worked up full uniform designs not just for the U.S. and Canada but pretty much every other team in these Olympics. So rather than displaying them all here, I'd recommend you check out his online gallery. He's got a lot of uniform designs on display, including alternate jerseys, for all 13 countries represented in Vancouver. He's even included his player template for anyone interested. |

Now for something a little different. China may not have fielded a men's team this year but that hasn't stopped Matt from thinking outside the box and submitting this design. Very cool sleeve design and interesting to see the player's number on his pants. Certainly something I've never seen before. |

Kazakhstan didn't qualify for the 2010 Olympics either but Brendan has put together this rather unique design based off the national flag. It's actually pretty cool. When was the last time you saw a hockey uniform in those colors? (And don't tell me about the Seals unless you can prove you went to a game.) |
Keep the concepts coming. I'll continue posting Olympic-themed artwork throughout February!
We're now a few days into the 2010 Winter Olympics and Canada and the United States are off to decent starts but the real test will be Sunday when they face each other. In the spirit of the games, a few artists have submitted related concept art.
I'm really hoping to add more of an international flavor this post, so if you've got any ideas for ways to improve upon Finland, Russia, Sweden or anything like that, send it along and I'll include it here!
Keep sending in your Olympic-themed concept art through the end of February!
