This is possibly my favorite set of jerseys so far. All of these entries are top notch. My vote will go to MTN because you managed to blend all the colors on the jersey perfectly and have a very uniquely design I never seen before.
I LLLLOOOOVVVEEEE NRB, it's like Oregons jerseys but more badass, just wish there was some lime green.
NRB has a fantastic design! Loving the wings!
Lots of really good designs here! Tough for me to pick just one as my favorite.
Also, a bit surprised that all of the dark jerseys were black, and there weren't any attempts at a Lime Green or Grey one (although, that is probably for the better).
I had the Nighthawks as my second choice when signing up for a team. Why? Because this is the best color scheme in the league! Underused in sports, in general.
Absolutely love most of these designs.
My favorites are MCB, BEG, BMA, & NAJ. The green really stands out on these designs.
Great set of choices here, any of these jerseys would look awesome in action in real life. MDM got my vote, I really like number font used and how the logo is easily visible along with how the green pops. I love NRB but aside from the logo there's no green on either of the jerseys so it lost my vote for that. SCB and MCB are also honorable mentions
I'm excited to see a third jersey for this team.
A full electric green jersey might be an eyesore, but if it's done right, it could be amazing.
I like NRB's wing design, but on a player, the wings would not have the same effect. Players rarely stand in a "T" shape. I would have kept the wings more on the shoulder yoke, rather than extending them down the arm. Nonetheless, great creativity, and fantastic execution.
Thought i had a good thing going with my design but after reviewing the others i am dissapotinted in myself.
All you guys did a great job!!!
My votes: MCB,MTN,BEG,BMA,NAJ,SCB !!!!! Great.
The outstanding work of NRB is the one who took it the extra step. WOuld have loved to se the white background on the home jersey green though...
My three favorites are, in no particular order, MCB, BEG, and SCB. These designs utilize all the colors from the primary logo to perfection, in my opinion. All be it, the numbers on MCB's design may be a bit tough to read, but if you look at the Atlanta Braves alternate blue jersey that design works quite well. These colors were my favorite to work with by far in the contest. So beautiful and so many different ways to incorporate them all. As said a lot already, it's too bad NRB'S jersey didn't include more green, because that would be the run-away winner if it did. Amazing. Great job to all the artists.
I'm strongly of the opinion that while the Nighthawks have one of the best color schemes in the IceHL, the electric green absolutely must remain limited to being an accent color. MCB and MTN are far and away my favorites. SCB earned my vote as well, since even though the green stripes are thick, the other gray/black stripe helps to balance it out. Any jersey that used more green than SCB, though, I couldn't bring myself to vote for, even though some of the design patterns are stellar. GUP's design would have been among my favorites, because it's gorgeous, if only a different font had been used on the nameplate!
I love ANB and MCB's jerseys because they kinda give off a "stealth bomber" vibe to me and I also REALLY like how SCB's looks. I think the font, stripes, and color choice look great!
Thanks for the feedback guys! This was definitely my favorite team to design a jersey for so I'm glad to see that other people like my design.
As for my favorites, I picked SCB, MDM, and MTN.
