Some graphics made in memory of my Dad. No negative comments, please
Folks, as you all should know by now, my Dad has now left this world. This set of graphics was done sometime within the last few days or so, in its various parts, and I don't yet have a suitable set of logos to go with it here, but maybe one of you graphics masters can provide suitably good ones for this just-imagined fictional team, somehow, in the very near future. txranger or no txranger, that is.
The font used on these items is Airborne. And there are quite a few colors in use for this new fictional team. This team is the Borolfelo Battlers, in truth. Dad was a soldier in the U.S. Army and in the Army National Guard of two states for a long while, by the way, mainly as an infantry-style soldier, I believe.
The colors used on these items, along with the related color codes and all, are as follows:
White (255, 255, 255) [FFFFFF]
Cornell Red (179, 20 25) [B31419]
Dark Moss Green (75, 83, 32) [4B5320]
Gunmetal (12, 38, 46) [0C262E]
Oxford Blue (16, 38, 67) [102643]
Cerulean (26, 109, 143) [1A6D8F]
Federal Blue (16, 17, 104 [101168]
Dark Green (7, 37, 25) [072519]
I would have perhaps used 071925 here, for the last listed color above, but I ultimately chose otherwise for the last color related to these items listed above, because that other color wouldn't have been a dark green instead to represent his longtime army service, but more of a black color for the related items here. If you think you can make a better set for this team, in pre-23 style, then you're welcome to try, of course.
Dad was mostly in the Minnesota and Indiana National Guard before he eventually retired from service around the age of 60, more or less. Mostly the Minnesota National Guard until he'd finished serving his time in the Army or related other units, in fact, and gotten enough service time for his pension, if memory serves me correctly enough here.
If any of you might make some sufficiently related logos for this team using any or all of the colors listed above, please try to take the infantry-related details well into account as you do so here. My Dad was born in October 1943, and ultimately left us about a week ago, so maybe you could incorporate the years of his life into any team-related logos you might then make here somehow. He didn't quite make it to his 82nd birthday this year, however, unfortunately.
Please don't leave any needlessly negative comments about these particular items, at least. But any and/or all possible constructive and kind comments about them and/or other related matters would, of course, be greatly appreciated here by me, at least, for sure, folks. Thank you for your time and all, then, in any case. CD out.
