Falcons and Lions

Love the black jersey Falcons!

Those look good.  Just something about all painted teams.  Nostalgia?  Maybe.  

People have made fantastic, realistic, and detailed teams, but I find each layer of detail added can make one think of the inevitable details that are not there.  Kinda like diminishing returns.

And when I'm playing a game, I'm not thinking about TV numbers or names on jerseys.

Nostalgia!! Yes, that is why I paint these teams like I do. Much simpler uniforms too. I do try to be a little more detailed with these teams than the original Tudor Factory teams, but I don't obsess over it. In the end, if I can look at a team and still recognize them as the team I intended for them to be, then I am happy. And that is all that really matters.
