FUNKAFIED Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I love this redesign. As a New Englander in exile here in Charlotte, I'd be a season ticket holder without a doubt. I'd have to root against them when the Red Sox were in town, but otherwise, I wish this was a reality. Call the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe stick to just one outline? Or even consider making the script light blue, outlined in navy and then yellow. - I would consider dropping the pinstripes on the home set in favor of t-bars, to match the road uniform. - The wings on the cap logo look like they should be following the curve of a roundel that isn't there, if that makes sense. Maybe think about having the ends of the wings run parallel to the angles of the "C."

Otherwise, looks fantastic! Thanks for the comments, guys. I found myself a little busy over the last few days so I haven't had a chance yet to implement any changes, but I'll look at these. @JG36, I think I'm married to the T-bar road striping. I've always liked it and thought it was tragically underused in the Majors. But I'll try your suggestion and put it up for comments. @coco1997, you're correct about the phantom roundel. That's how the logo started. I tried angling the interior of the wings to match that of the C, but thought it was too heavy on one side due to the slant on the C. I'll try to take another stab at it. Also I think you may be correct about the colors bleeding. I didn't want that many outlines originally, but I thought the result actually looked muddier. I'll definitely go back and try more versions. I'm thinking maybe just sky blue outlined with yellow, but it's got a serious UCLA vibe going on.

coco1997 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 The Mustangs and Knights scripts look pretty nice! Maybe think about thickening the outline around the Knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 Quick look: Obviously haven't addressed issues with the logo yet. I like the heavier influence on the sky blue here (that was my original intended focus before things evolved). Just not sure about the color balance. Thoughts?

coco1997 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I like it! It's definitely a much cleaner look than what you started with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongXStyle Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 The updated script looks nice with the outline. It make a big difference from the previous ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake3roo Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I’d tweak the left wing of the P in pilots so it goes with the curve. Also the difference in line widths on “knights” is a bit jarring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_DietDrPepper_ Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 The Mustangs script reads Mwtangs, a bit of tweaking could help, but it’s definitely the script with the most potential Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a few things about this logo that bothered me: -the italic C didn't match how the font was used elsewhere on the uniforms, where it was regular/not italic. That also created the space issues that you rectified by putting in the invisible roundel -the "wings" start from the middle in the center of the logo, but my eye didn't like how they "ran over" the corners of the home plate I tried playing with them in that same position, but didn't like how they turned out. I took the liberty of recreating your logo and then modifying it. Here are two versions I came up with: One note on the lower one - I didn't have time to fix it, but I want to make the lower shadow of the wings on both sides thicker so that they line up with the plate's shadow. This would also allow an option to have the golden parts of the wings extend out from the dark blue plate, rather than from behind it. I'll work on it more tomorrow if anyone wants to see those fixes/options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was out of town for about a week and have spent the last few days catching up with real life. Still hashing out the Mustangs and Knights. Can't say exactly when I'll be posting new stuff, but this series is definitely not over. HURRICANES | PANTHERS | WHITE SOX | WOLFPACK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecticbro Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Great concepts! Only (mild) criticism is how the cap looks with the road grays. The solid color cap and white letter cap logo looks off with the gray uniform. Maybe use a yellow or light blue bill? Or use white script for the jersey?
