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. Thanks for the suggestion 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johne9109 32 Posted February 24 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 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blindsay 262 Posted February 24 Again for the heat, El Calor would be shorter and sweeter. And thicken the bucks font. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johne9109 32 Posted Friday at 02:14 PM 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 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johne9109 32 Posted Friday at 06:05 PM 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. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johne9109 32 Posted Saturday at 01:33 AM 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. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blindsay 262 Posted Saturday at 02:27 AM Ok no. As a Knicks fan, just no. Back to the drawing board. Maybe an NYPD theme? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just can't see them doing it in the NBA right now with everything going on unfortunately. What's wrong with the Hook and Ladder 8 logo? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krz 2,023 Posted Saturday at 04:59 PM 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. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johne9109 32 Posted Saturday at 08:36 PM When doing research for OKC I found out that Route 66 passes right through their downtown and right in front of city hall so I used Oklahoma's unique Route 66 sign as the basis 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johne9109 32 Posted Sunday at 01:37 AM 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. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
