Alsenfelt's mask with the new Elitserien team Växjö's new club logo

Växjö Lakers
It's always exciting to create mask designs with new logos and colors. As in this case, the team Växjö Lakers changed both logo and colors when they advanced to the Swedish top division Elitserien. Oscar visited me in the studio and we talked us through the design. He wanted a classically created design with clear and distinct colors and lines, with the new club logo in focus. But he also wanted to celebrate the fantastic fans that cheered the team and helped them take the step up to Elitserien.

The base of the design with the colors and lines is inspired by the new team uniform, and on one side I placed the new beautiful shield. The lines create an old school feeling and makes the mask look good also from a long distance. When you look closer you discover a new world of details, as the mascot of the fan club Lakers Lakejer that you can spot in the blue metallic tones. The mask is created with extreme detail work and 3-D effects beyond normal. Nothing new there... ;-)
