Nickelodeons?! No, Nickelonians!

Hey-o Nickelonians! Another Thursday edition of BNG has arrived. But first, let me make a brief clarification . . .
{nɪ•kə•ləʊ•ni•ən' (n.) - readers and/or followers of Buffalo Nickel Graphics}
Now that that's taken care of let me give you a brief debrief. I am anticipating other concepts from other designers to come in soon so keep your eyes peeled for those. The following concept from Jake88 is indeed his submission to HJC's Steel Drop Jersey contest. Here's what he's got:


While I did like the keeping of navy, I think I would've liked to see orange here. At least as an accent color. The half yoke outline and the striping both are not convincing me that these will ever take to the ice. The pants in particular just look plain old silly. However, (though the original wasn't bad) these numbers appear to be much more welcoming. At least there is something positive other than execution to take from the concept.

Another concept has been judged and speaking of judging, you may have noticed the stamp of approval has disappeared. I felt it redundant to include them anymore as it was obvious that posted concept must be in good taste anyway. That and I'm no HJC or Icethetics, but all's fair in design and war, I suppose. See you later.
