elliott Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Okay, I was in Seattle a couple times this month because I had a cruise that started/ended in Seattle. I toured the city, and really enjoyed it. But, I saw a bunch of Mariners stuff, and I decided I wanted to give them a revamped look. After seeing the Space Needle for a few days, I wanted to incorporate it into the package. I pretty much combined the needle with the old trident M logo. I thought the middle prong and the Space Needle combined well together. The two "slashes" across the tower deck are supposed to represent the levels seen on the tower. The secondary is a bigger view of the needle, except in blue. The "S" I used is in a similar style to the current one, but still fairly different. I further incorporated the trident into the wordmarks. The main logo on blue and the wordmark on blue use the same pattern of outlines they use currently. So, I have an idea for the jerseys if you like this. But please, all C+C is needed, because I don't do original logos much and I want all comments y'all have!! Dribbble ...

Milo Meningocele Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Nice effort...but "space" and "marine" are two completely different environments/themes, that don't make any sense to put together for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 The 'Seattle' script looks like the compass graphic should still be there. But I may change my mind when I see the jerseys. I think the logos are great. The only problem with that font is that you are running a bit of a risk of making it look too plain. But I am still excited to see what you come up with.

riccirulesall Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think you should thicken and connect the lines within the triton/Space Needle logo, because it looks a bit incomplete. Otherwise, I like the morph, even if like Milo said it has two different subjects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarsofthumper Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I'm not a big fan of the scripts, but I love the logos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 looks like the trident is attempting to swallow the kingdome. space and marine would make sense if you are sending a mission to Europa or titan and studying oceanic microbacterial life on those moons. In the case of Europa, having a robotic mission to drill on a frozen ocean and study the oceanic life underneath the frozen surface. In the case of Titan studying the oceans of ethane gas. Spoilers!

kewp80 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Sorry, but that just doesn't look like a baseball logo at all. If you look at other logos from around the league, you'll notice that pretty much every one has the team name in it.Ditch the space needle, and focus on the trident M, or something else.

nwtrailtrekker Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 its not a bad idea, but that trident, in any form, is a sign of extreme bad luck around these parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delux247 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I instantly thought to the War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. I like the idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardgr Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I thought the mushroom cloud over the trident was appropriate for the Mariners on so many levels for this season but then I realized it was the top of the space needle .I also think that using the old trident logo with block capital letters in the word mark is odd. It almost makes it look like you had caps lock on mARINERS, see what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elliott Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 Well, about the conflicting interest thing, I never was really thinking that, I guess. I never thought of the Space Needle as space, which seems stupid, but I was thinking more of a icon of Seattle, and not a symbol of space.Here is the uniforms I came up with. They are relatively simple.Caps first. The blue would be worn with home/away, and teal with alternate.Now the jerseys. C+C, as usual. Dribbble ...

kewp80 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 The uniforms aren't half bad. The Mariners script looks surprisingly better than I thought it would. The only weakness in this is the primary/cap logo, but that's a pretty big weakness. If you keep working on this you should rehash some ideas for the main logo to make it seem more... baseball-ish, if you know what I mean.

NEW.ERA Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I personally think the logo is great it captures Seattle as a whole just because when you think space needle you think seattle and the Mariners all in the same logo Huge improvement JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZzyzx41 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Switch the primary cap logo to just be the S and you have me sold. That Space Needle/Trident logo can be a fashion cap or something. -DanielCheck Out My Podcast!

BBM Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Sorry, that space needle / trident logo looks like an alien UFO. I can't get past that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Very creative idea and well executed. It could be a good alternate, but not a primary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcameronh Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I do like the fact that you tried to do something different but I just like their current set to much to invision a new set like this. I do really like the green alt hat. That would be a good addition to thier current set. I would just use the space needle/trident as an alt logo and not a primary. Overall thought I do like your concept. Nice work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
