Design Shawn Hunwick's Goalie Helmet

Sounds like Shawn Hunwick needs help designing his new goalie mask. With all the mgoartists on this board, I thought one of you may be able to help him out. Here are some of his tweets. Sorry my formatting is terrible.

I'm lacking any sense of creativity this spring which is unfortunate because I have to decide what paint job I want on my new mask.
 
Shawn Hunwick
I'm looking for ideas or even drawings for those more artistically inclined. If I like the design I'm going to go with the best one.
 
Shawn Hunwick
Who knows you could tell your friends you designed my mask.

This is as ON topic as it gets.  UM goalie wants a fan to design his helmet.  This is why blogs like this serve the public good.

That, and Brian duh.

I do think Shawn needs a SPECIAL helmet just for the tSIO games:  have one with images of cars, tattoos, and condominiums.

I think it could be cool with a similar style to what Cujo used to wear, except it is a wolverine not a rabid dog. The very top part could still have the stripes on it as well.

Here's mine.  Actually got it from a garage sale, the dude had it custom painted.  Only problem is it said "Barney" right on the chin, so I redid that part myself (hence how bad it looks).  Other than that is is actually quite similar to CuJo's old mask.

Not sure what picture to use but I think it would really cool to use a the Wolverine character from X-Men.  I've never seen it on a goalie mask before, plus it is fierce and is well, our nickname. Good luck Shawn!

My photoshop abilities are pretty much limited to splicing Lloyd Brady in to the Last Supper, but there are some seriously legit artists on here as witnessed by the banner contests and some forum posts. How cool would a DGDestroy's MSPaint job be for a mask design? I'm sure SixZero could whip up something fierce too.

So ideas for more talented people.

1.) Start with Wings of course 

2.) Use of 9 National Championship years ('48, 51', 52', 53', 55', 56', 64', 96', 98')

3.) Yost Arena on Side

4.) B1G Logos hidden in paint for upcoming 2013 conference

5.) New Block "M" on chin replacing where Shawn had 31 last season

6.) USA Flag or Wounded Warrior Project logo on back plate

7.) Some use of lightning (if keeping same pad scheme)

Feel free to use none, any, or all.

Ok, Wolverine (at least in the old days, like that picture) wore blue and gold, he came from somewhere in the Michigan-Canada vicinity, and of course, his name is "Wolverine". Is there any possible connection? Like they came up with the character, and then (maybe a Michigan fan) decided to give a little tip of the hat to the mighty U-M? I've always wondered this. Any of you comic fanbois able to enlighten me? I liked the X-men when I was a kid, but I wasn't a dedicated comic junkie or anything . . .

Thanks for the input, Shawn.

I'm not an artist by any means, but as an aside, I was contacted by a fellow Michigan Alumna last week, who is a producer for FSD, and she asked if I could round up some hockey fans for yesterday.

We trekked down to Yost, and they shot a scene of a "mock" student section, of us doing all of the cheers.  Basically, they're finally making a documentary based off of Bacon's "Blue Ice" book.  :)

I like this design because it is very similar to every other michigan helmet out on the ice. I also like the classic winged helmet, it is really nice looking already. Give as much input as possible and I will incorporate your ideas into my next draft!
