Day 179, Quasi-Quarantine: Celebrating Football's Return With 21st Legion, Colts Battalion


Painting blank Legos clone trooper helmets has been a bit of a godsend during quasi-quarantine, providing a time-consuming activity that allows for creativity.

We've discussed the 13th Legion, Dolphins Battalion project previously, but with the NFL season (amazingly) upon us, we felt it was time for an update that honors my building partner's favorite team: 

NC State Midwest, also known as the Indianapolis Colts.

Powered by Wolfpack heroes Nyheim Hines, Jacoby Brissett, and now Philip Rivers, the 'Shoe is poised for big things in 2020. This helmet celebrates that potential, and as an initial foray into a Colts design, we're happy with it.

Indy's minimalist brand pattern lends itself to this type of translation, but I'd like to get more detailed with the horseshoe itself and continue to explore how best to represent the facemask.

This'll do for now.

Football is back. Go, sportsball.
