I sincerely ask for consideration from the Board Gawds here for posting a blatantly non-gaming message. But the folks over at my usual fencing board aren't nearly as creative in the artsy-fartsy way I'm seeking today. You guys are much better.
It's simple, really: the US Fencing Association's default for competition uniforms is boringly white, white, white. The fencer's name has to be on the back in block letters, and patches are allowed on one of the arms. But otherwise? DULLLLLL!
There's just a bit of wiggle room for creative expression, though: Rules allow for "uniforms of a single pastel color or designs on the rear (unarmed) arm and leg. As the purpose of uniform color or design is for audience interest, such designs should be in good taste. The body of the uniform, however, must be a single color - white or a light shade."
So I've been wracking my brain for an interesting design of some sort. A little more creative, hopefully, than a single stripe. And because I'm not an overtly artsy guy, I need a resource for copying. ... Can anyone here point me to an online site with clear visual aids?
