MLB Redesigns Series

Solid updates all around. I would stick with the powder blue for the road.

 

The reason I don't like the mountains on the pants is because players would have to wear the pants pajama-style for the design to be visible. It's like how the D-Backs had the diamond pattern at the bottom of their pants last season and then quickly realized their mistake and got rid of it this year.

I understand what you're saying, I'm hoping that it would adapt to the short-paint style that than the Diamondbacks would, though. And I probably will stick with sky blue.

Alright so since the Rockies seem pretty good, I'm gonna go ahead and post today's team, the Detroit Tigers:

-Fairly simple transition from the tweaks series, the road just becomes navy and an orange alternate is officially added to the set.

-The striping pattern, based on the tiger's tail in the primary logo, adorns all the jerseys, pants, and socks. The tiger's face is now a patch on all 3 jerseys.

-I decided to keep the 4-stripe pattern on the socks since it fits the Tigers well I feel, but I obviously added the tiger stripes to make it more distinct.

 

That's really about all I've got to say today for a pretty simple set, but any C+C on the series so far would be greatly appreciated.

Road script needs a white outline like it currently has IRL. 

 

As far as the overall series goes, I'm loving it, especially all the solid-colored road uniforms!

I think the home would look nice with spoon piping like the current home but with the tiger stripes. I also think some white outlines would help the stripes on the socks and the blue uni. All in all a great set, can't wait for the next team.

What if you used this road wordmark in orange for the road uniform?

I wasn't able to find the wordmark anywhere on the site, but I probably like the current script better anyway. I added a white outline, maybe I could go with an Old English wordmark? I also tried Old English numbers on this too to see how it looks.

It's funny, I used to love the way headspoon piping looked on a baseball uniform, but now I've gone in the opposite direction. I probably would prefer not to incorporate it into the set, but here is at least a look:

C+C appreciated, as always.

Ok I just figured out a way to adjust the set as a whole and make it more consistent. Thanks to @BenD's advice, I added the white stripes bordering the tiger stripes across the entire set, which allows for more color balance. Also, outlines are on every wordmark now.

Thank you for that suggestion!

Alright guys, I'm pretty excited to show you all today's team, the Houston Astros!

 

Logos

-Naturally, with Detroit having the same color scheme right before them, the Astros are a team in need of a color change for my series. Although there are certainly other schemes in Houston's past that I could revert back to, I've personally found them to be rather bland, or  to not even fit the identity at all. Instead, I opted to go for a completely new color scheme. Inspired by the colors of deep space, I decided to incorporate a "deep space purple" first seen in @raysox's wonderful Astros concept. Although I decided to keep the current orange instead of burnt orange and cream, credit goes to him for the original idea.

-I decided to remove the beveling and outlines from all the logos in order to create a more flat, modern, and minimalist look, that at the same time harkens more directly to the Astros' past.

-Although I love how @mmejia described the color scheme that greatly inspired my tweaks set, the "tequila sunrise" no longer represents the fire and propulsion of a rocket against the navy blue space, but for this series it represents the diverse spectrum of colors you could see while exploring the ventures of deep space.

-This set for the most part follows the same template of my tweaks series, but with the new color scheme and logos incorporated.

-To include all of the colors seen in the set, white outlines have been added around the uniform parts with either a purple or an orange background, namely the away uniform, the alternates, and the socks.

-For this set I decided to add a tequila sunrise alternate, but with the colors descending in sequential order just like everywhere else in the set, in order to match.

 

I'm interested to see what you all think of the Astros, all comments are appreciated!

Fantastic! The Astros might be your best concept yet this series, with the possible exception of the brown Cubs. That shade of purple works perfectly within the tequila sunrise pattern. I'm not big on the white lines separating the sunrise panels from the rest of the jersey, but I guess there's no other option.

 

I kind of wish you could incorporate the sunrise pattern into the primary logo somehow.

Thank you! And there are a few different ways of going about trying that, do any of these work?

How would an orange on orange look as the away? I don't feel the mono-purple.. But the concept is great :)

I appreciate it! Here's an all orange away, though I probably still prefer the purple myself.

Also, I was thinking, should I maybe lighten the purple a little bit? That was one of the criticisms I was prepared to possibly get as I uploaded this.

 

Thanks to everyone who has followed this series so far, it means a lot.
