Default UCONN Huskies

No.....not the more nationally known men and women's hoop teams....but, the 25th ranked ( AP ) Football Team.

UCONN moved up to Division 1-A in 2000, and in just 4 years went to a Bowl Game - winning the Motor City Bowl in 2004....and they are currently off to their best start in school history at 8-2.

I thought it would be fun to paint and detail UCONN as my first college team....especially with all that they have going on with their uniforms. For ex, the numbers are an unique font, the neck lines that they have with the small "C" in front, their blue socks & pants stripe - (the pants aren't silver, but a "shiny" grey - I dry-brushed Delta Creamcoat's Pearls over a light grey paint ).

For the Player Jersey names - I used names of Connecticut cities/towns.

Thanks for looking -
