2017-18 New Goalie Equipment/Masks

[DustyMartellaughs]

I literally have no idea what I'm looking at when I see most of Dave's work. Cluttered, messy, and overdone with SuperFX or whatever synonym for excess he chooses this week.

You're supposed to come closer to discover more details and let the mask enter a new dimension....

Oh, right. Sorry. "Storyteller" and all that.

 

[SlimCharles]

Why is Dave so obsessed with lens flares...

 

[Lunatik]

Lack is continuing with the Swedish Chef theme on his mask....

DaveArt is coming to Sin City. I'm guessing this is Calvin Pickard's new mask:

"New NHL paint in the pipeline... To be continued..@vegasgoldenknights #DaveArt #nhl @nhl"

probably. Fleury doesn't (or didn't) use DaveArt

 

[DustyMartellaughs]

God, no. Letting Dave paint more NHL masks is like letting Joel Schumacher direct a Batman movie.

or just keep it simple and say he's the Michael Bay of painting helmets.

Pekka Rinne new mask, I think it's actually pretty solid.

"Today I have the pleasure to present my latest Predator painting to my friend Pekka Rinn. We have worked together for more than a decade. This new design is built on the foundation of the awesome logos of Nashville Predators. A clean base mixed with vintage effects, and as the true Storyteller mask it is, the closer you come the more details you will discover. And for sure, all the DaveArt Trademark Super FX is unleashed all over the painting... @ppr__ @predsnhl #DaveArt #nhl #DaveArtTheCradleOfCreativity @nhl #DaveArtTheMaskNerd"

Wow. What a cluster of a paint job. Things need to go back to the KISS theory. Keep it Simple Stupid. The artists on these masks are getting waaaay to self absorbed in their own theory. Reminds me of University profs. Caught up in the 7th layer of meaning but can't open a water bottle.

Can't wait to see what mrazek wears next season. He's worn everything from a remembering the joe, centennial classic, elf, robo cop, and peter griffin mask

Rinne's new one honestly isn't bad compared to some of them. It's clear what everything is. Two preds logos on each side, secondary NP logo on top, number in front bottom.

He's had some interesting ones in the past.

 

[Realize]

Rinne's masks in the last few years have been much cooler than this one ... Somehow has no identity and looks like a minor league mask.

Agreed! Also, the NP on the top, makes it look like an EA NHL Mask.

 

[Caeldan]

Rinne's new mask looks like it'll be a good one from the stands.
I still think half the problem that is with Dave's masks is that he's a terrible photographer and stages the reveal posts horribly.

This is Neuvirth's gear:

Vanilla graphics loves the stupid.

 

[Butch 19]

This is Neuvirth's gear:

umm, what am I looking at exactly??? the backside of everything?

 

[Del Preston]

I can't take my eyes off the floor.

Looks like he's airing out his gear.
I've never thought about hairdryer to the blocker/catcher...

 

[Oddbob]

This is Neuvirth's gear:

Cool, someone is finally going with the wood panel effect!

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Condon? Anderson?
