Go Red Sox! Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi guys. This is my latest (little) MLB project, a revision of the current Philadelphia Phillies primary mark. I never liked the unused white space above Liberty Bell which has been the main reason to put this redesign into practice. The current Phillies mark maybe isn't one of the most creative or beautiful marks in the MLB, but it's distincitve and therefore has been untouched since 1992. Until now.

coco1997 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Absolutely love it! The bat underline is a stroke of genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinsUp1214 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Beautiful job! I really think the highlight of it is the bat underline. It's so well done and so cleanly meshed in that it almost looks as if it was meant to be there, or even always had been there. A+++! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelman Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 The inclusion of the bat stroke was so clean I almost missed that it was a bat. Excellent work. This may be one of my recent favorites of yours. The updated lines and shapes helps tremendously. The only nit that I had was the thickness of the PHILADELPHIA in the top of the bell. With everything else tightened or thickened up the city name felt a little thin in comparison. Personal preference though. Otherwise I think you smashed this update. Great job.

Hi Steelman, thanks a lot! I didn't want the word "PHILADELPHIA" to horizontally protrude that wooden part of the bell. I chose Futura which was used on the official Philadelphia city flag. I could have used a bolder face of Futura, but it didn't look that clean. “Never argue with an idiot!

CraigJPritch Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Great work! The addition of the bat is brilliant and the addition of the cream really makes the logos pop without overdoing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelman Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Ah, I didn't know the tie-in with the city flag. That's a nice touch. In context it makes a lot of sense, not that I thought it looked bad in the first place. Bravo again.
