missouri tigers Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 This is a concept I've been working on rebranding the Tampa Bay Rays as the Tampa Rays. The reason behind the name change is that I've never been too big on naming a team after a body of water/region and I personally think Tampa Rays sounds better. Not too much to say about the logos/unis themselves, I was just really trying to step away from the generic identity the Rays currently use and design something that would be unique in the MLB.I'd love to get everyone's constructive criticism on the design.

AdRice97 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Everything looks great, very clean. However, if you're taking away the Bay part and going with just Tampa (something that I agree should be done), how come you still have the interlocking TB logo? (which also looks quite nice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRangersFan Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Is that pink or a light red?Anyway,this concept is one of the best I have seen. But why just Tampa instead of Tampa Bay or St Petersburg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigshampagne Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 this looks amazing. i love it. Im not sure I like the baby blue color, maybe use some of the colors from their original logo, but thats like my only complaint...and a small complaint at that. I love the simplicity of the sting ray. you did a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanic Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I like it. However I see the R in the wordmark as a B in some cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperThin Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I think it'd be cool to make the ray in the shape of a T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamiller99 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I would like to see the ray in orange instead of the salmon/pink color. The ray itself looks good because the eyes kinda look like navy devil horns. That's what- She Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrosby Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Beautiful. I preferred the TB logo, it in the same realm as the TC logo for the Twins. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1clkgtramg Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Really love that Coral and Baby Blue look you have here. And I like how the "Rays" almost looks like "Bays" so it still includes that illusion of keeping the old name.

LoyolaProp1 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I love it. I think the original color scheme is just different enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nddurst Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Wow! Excellent work. It's clean and minimal. Everything looks great. I like the colors too. Nice!EDIT: On second look, it would be nice to see more of the coral color in the navy caps, maybe as an outline around the white TR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I like this, and especially the simple, yet effective way you drew the devil ray. I'm going to go opposite of some comments about the R, though. It would be more distinctive as one if the tail curved out instead of in. Now it's too much like a B, which will confuse. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concepts_SM Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Awesome! My only gripe is the light blue set. I would ditch the blue pants and make it another alternate jersey and add a road gray... Still a great concept! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePeam Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Awesome! My only gripe is the light blue set. I would ditch the blue pants and make it another alternate jersey and add a road gray... Still a great concept!I second that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
