Maybe stack 'em into two lines? Like, on the first line, it's "EL HEAT", then on the second line, it's "DE MIAMI" but with a smaller font. Just a suggestion. I definitely think that looks better.

johne9109 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 For the Bucks I put in a field of barley for MIlwaukee's prominence in beer manufacturing. Milwaukee gets it name from a Native American term that means good land so I put that on the front of the jersey. the teams barely used blue made for a better main color so I went with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindsay Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Again for the heat, El Calor would be shorter and sweeter. And thicken the bucks font.

johne9109 Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Minnesota Timberwolves is a very indulgent one and I know that, but I think it works. So I was looking up things that Minnesota is known for and I saw stuff about the north star and I thought I'd love to do a Minnesota Northstars themed jersey, but thats not enough to go off of. Then I saw that Minnesota is known as the state of hockey so I said done! Minnesota loves the North Stars branding too!. So the color scheme and wordmark incorporates the old NHL team while including the wolf howling to bring it back to the Timberwolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johne9109 Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 For the New Orleans Pelicans I didn't want to do a direct Mardi Gras themed jersey so I did a Jazz themed one instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johne9109 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 Ok so here's another indulgent one and I think it went better than the jersey. I took the FDNY jersey they had a few years ago and used the hook and ladder 8 logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindsay Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Ok no. As a Knicks fan, just no. Back to the drawing board. Maybe an NYPD theme?

Krz Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Hey dude, you have some pretty good ideas here! Ideas are really the most important thing, and a lot of these jerseys are very unique! A couple of things you could improve upon are: 1. Make sure your wordmark and number are the correct size, and placed to the right height. A lot of your numbers are way too big, use a real nba jersey for reference. 2. Use high quality images. A lot of the images are grainy, and putting a stroke on them makes it look worse. I also don’t think the logo behind the jersey is necessary, especially when the logo is low quality. 3. Tiny nitpick but, use the real Nike logo! Don’t use the fake one the template comes with. Excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johne9109 Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 I know it's the obvious choice, but especially with the Magic being sponsored by Disney it's something that I think is coming. I modeled it after the blue jersey that the team wore for years. I tried putting horizontal stripes to replicate the Magic's striping and the spacing in the castle, but it was way too much. I also contemplated something Sorcerer's Apprentice themed, but it would've been way too busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
