Griz Uniforms (Again)

Not normally a fan of black, but I think I could live with that one. Would like the "MONTANA" to be bigger.

Like what you did, here, my man. The Griz paw print on the shoulders is too much like Duck's feathers. Make it smaller to look like the paw print we're accustomed to. Also, turn print so claws are inside. Maybe paw print in maroon, gold or silver, not black as you have it. Not sure maroon outline of numbers is good. How about a gold outline instead of maroon? Still, bright maroon looks good.

Helmet concept looks good. Like the "UM" logo on the front. How about showing a center silver stripe w/ gold outline? Could be bright maroon outline. Gold & silver are genuine UM colors. Any presentation of the helmet from the side? Appreciate what you do, man. :clap:
 
Nice. I'd like this as a special, once-per-year jersey. In general, though, I hope the Griz stop sacrificing tradition for the sake of trend.

Maroon on black won't look good, except in the best lighting conditions. This also makes it look too much like pink. If we're going to put the Griz logo on a dark helmet, I'd like it to have light trim around the letters to give it definition.

I like the paw concept a lot.

The size of "Montana" is perfect. Bigger isn't better -- this doesn't need to be a billboard.

Beware: These photoshop templates make just about any jersey look cool.

Like all your comments, SirG, except I don't see these uni's as special occasion unis. Kids these days don't care re: tradition. Well, they do, but not to the extent we old fogies do. (You're 40? You're not a fogy? I apologize.) Anyway, I agree maroon has to be out. I believe a gold outline of the silver number would be great. True UM colors.

And, I agree a gold outline of the Griz silver logo on the sides of a flat black helmet would be, well, "awesome" as the kids say. I also think a silver stripe down the center of the helmet w/ a gold outline would be sweet. As a tribute to copper, maybe even a small copper stripe down the center of the silver stripe would bring all 3 UM colors (copper, silver, gold) in play.
 
Well, the claws could be to outside. But, the paw print should be proportional to what we all know the paw print to be.

Thats because I used the Ducks unis as the template, they are bad ass, I just wanted to see them in our colors.

Here is one for the "old fogies" ;-)

call me what ya like I'm only 28 but love the old colors. However, the maroon is pretty BA, can we see the side of what the helmets would look like, perhaps a reverse of the ones last year with the paw on the back in silver white or maroon...

31 here and grew up with those colors and still think they are BA, but the fact of the matter is they just don't go with the maroon statium. :(

Well, it's hard to see what the base color of the helmet is. Is it black? Is it silver? Seems to depend on how the light shows on it. I guess a major decision is whether or not to retain maroon. I think the gold nos. w/ yellow outline are yucky. Is that a black uniform? Again, it depends on the light. But, I appreciate your hard work. :) BTW, wish I had a template to play around with.
 
I am "old school" so I'd like to see more use of the Copper/Silver/Gold in the "Nike" uniforms. I know the knock on the old jerseys was the "Texas Orange" used as the Copper...BUT COME ON THIS IS 2011 graphics and technology with colors is 10,000% better than 20 years ago.

I would suggest a "Metallic Copper" like the color you see on Copper colored cars, the Helmets that were part of the BAD Halloween Griz/Cat uniforms were nice, combine this with metallic copper uniforms with Gold Bear Claws on the shoulder pads.

Just a thought.
 
Nice work on the Helmet.
