burgundy Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 For this concept I tried to go back somewhat to a more traditional look for GT, with one major twist - honeycomb! I decided to go with more of an old gold (metallic, not matte), as it fits the name much better, and it makes them stand out more. For the uniforms, I basically went with traditional striping, but replaced the middle stripe with a honeycomb/wasp nest pattern. The gold helmet also has a faint honeycomb pattern.

CAB Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I really like the idea of the honeycomb pattern (looks great!), but I'm not feelin' the switch to old gold. I prefer their current color. But whatever, it's your concept! Overall nice job, but does anyone else think that the navy looks a wee bit purple-ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentrygraphics Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 fantastic idea...very creative. Did/have you kicked around the idea of doing a subtle honeycomb down the side panels?

marchawg Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I love the idea of using honeycomb, but in practice it looks a little weird. Maybe try narrowing the borders around them a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohob Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I love the idea for honeycomb as well, but I think it should always be used in a subtle way. It looks great on the helmet, but the balls out honeycomb on the rest of the unis is a little much.

ONUV Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 went overboard on the honeycombs but it's a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynomind Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 As a Tech guy, I like it. The color looks right, metallic gold is very traditional for Tech.The honeycomb is cool. I do think the spacing could be reduced between the cells, to make it a little lighter/more faint.I'm not crazy about the tone of navy you used. Black trim is a little more historic for them. I also think textured helmets are awesome. Though, with the tradition of the school being so storied, its tough to think about changing the helmet. But, the unis have looked like garbage in real life the past 5 years, so I suppose the helmet is fair game.Love the Alts with white helmet. NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ!

darkhaha Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I think this is brilliant -- the perfect fusion of a cutting-edge concept with a traditional design. Nice job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
