Hoopskid Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Just wanted to expirement with a new uniform for the Nuggets.I never was a fan of their current set, it looked good for about 2 seasons but I don't really like the design nor the colors.Decided to return to actual gold color, not yellow, and lose the baby blue. I think minimizing the color palette makes the uniforms looks "alpine" fresh Few points:- I love the alternate uniform wordmark, decided to create a DENVER one to go along with it. Perhaps I should've put Denver on the road, but I just realized that as I was writing this. D'Oh!- Ending the side panels in a triangle to resemble their current set and symbolize a mountain peak.- Mountain design on shorts because with the whole new "lighter" NBA thing I figured putting the logo patch on would make the shorts too heavy, I did however place a small patch on the waist.Basically that's that...thoughts?

KennyRock Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 As you already said, "Denver" and "Nuggets" should really be swapped on the home and road. Also think that your primary is a bit bland... when they originally used these colors for the set in the 90's, I think the primary had some red in it that helped out the top portion.Love the actual jersey design, very crisp and the gold does a good job of differentiating it a bit from the other navy jerseys in the league.I could say that neither wordmark matches the primary, but you specifically said you were doing the concept based off their current 3rd.

mbannon92 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Those are awesome man! I love those colors, and the wordmarks and mountains on the shorts are sick. My only suggestions would be to flip the wordmarks, as has been said, and maybe add in a 3rd color (possibly red) for trim, just to liven up the color scheme a little.

Sapphire Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Pretty tight design overall, but adding another team with navy as a primary color to the NBA just doesn't do it for me...Would like to see what this design would look like with the rainbow colorway.Other than that its tight. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCCoachArete Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I actually love it just the way it is once you swap the names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave-Bird 08 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 aside from the scripts needing to be swip swapped on the jerseys this is absolutely awesome!!i love how you combined the mountain peak logo into a really old school, simply looking side panel. brilliant!

Hoopskid Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 Thanks for the comments thus far.Really there's a lot of color combos I could've used. I had a version with light blue side panels and one with red aswell, but I felt that a simpler palette might be the way to go.Some red would look nice, but then they're be another blue white red team with a bit of gold. This was they're blue and gold, not yellow like the Pacers.UPDATED SCRIPT: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffDawg Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I'm probably in the minority here, but I think the color scheme's fine the way it is. It's a nice, clean look. The updates are an improvement, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north dakota Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I love the wordmarks, especially the Denver wordmark. I would buy this jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Aside from tweaking the "Denver" script, these are fantastic! Love how you incorporated the mountain into the shorts so well. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoGTS Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I like this too. Have you tried it with gold panels and white piping on the roads though (reverse of what you have now)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopskid Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 I like this too. Have you tried it with gold panels and white piping on the roads though (reverse of what you have now)? Actually I have, but it felt like Gold was the main color, I wanted to keep it as an accent.I'll actually post the different colors I tried later on, and I guess you guys can tell me which is best.

ESTONES6 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Yeah... I am OK with this... it just seems muted. There isn't a pop. Its a great design, clean style... but it just seems dull with the muted gold and navy blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopskid Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 Here's some of the colors I had originally used...The rainbow one is more of a joke, but oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESTONES6 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I think a happy medium between the navy, light blue, and gold could add some more character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 The Rainbow one is awesome! All jokes aside, switching out a few of the accent colors around, that thing is a winner! lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Solid work. However, a few things I'm not really sold on though are...- As everyone's already stated, swap the wordmarks. Nickname at home. City on the road.- The "Denver" wordmark. For some reason it just looks sloppy. Could just be the font though.- The digits. I'll pass on borrowing from the OKC Thunder.But overall, I like it. As much as like like Denver's current powder blues, I'm kinda diggin' the Notre Dame color scheme.

mbannon92 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 IMO, if you used the navy/light blue/gold jersey and made the wordmark and numbers navy you'd have a winner! I really like those colors together, and I can't think of any team with that combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
