MJD7 Posted January 31 Author Share Posted January 31 On a similar note, I updated my Marlins' City Connect design to be more like their real-life version, which had been growing on me (I just went with pink instead). Thus, I had to alter the Cubs', so I tried to make it closer to the Wrigley Field sign aesthetic. 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 After discussing with @Marlins93 in the MLB 2024 Uniform/Logo Changes thread, I started to become more convinced that going back to teal really is the way to go for the Marlins. True to my comments, though, I kept pink as an accent, but went with a more pastel shade inspired by @VampyrRabbit's "Factory Pomo" Marlins logo, which keeps the Marlins' identity close to its 90's roots, which I appreciate. I also think the Marlins are a rare team that doesn't really need a road gray jersey, so in its place I added a pink alternate inspired by the Nationals' recent raglan-sleeve pullover. I might make this my "standard" Marlins set, I'm still a bit conflicted whether to keep the current "Marlins blue." Let me know what you think! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted February 5 Author Share Posted February 5 I had this idea of an adjustment to the Brewers’ City Connect, instead of limiting the “beer foam” stripes to the sleeves I translated it to the whole jersey. Thoughts? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of those designs that's subtle to where I'd be like I don't get the reference, but then there'd be a behind the design graphic that would make me go oh that's genius 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When choosing that shade of pink for the logo (which I am going to tweak when I have the chance), It was only intended to be used as part of the Marlin on the main uniforms, just a nice little tie to the masterpiece that is the Miami Art Deco district along with blue. I like the home, road and alternate (though not a fan of the pullover alt), though I would prefer them with just black and teal, with the pink just on the Marlin. 7 hours ago, MJD7 said: I had this idea of an adjustment to the Brewers’ City Connect, instead of limiting the “beer foam” stripes to the sleeves I translated it to the whole jersey. Thoughts?p Make the stripe cream and move it higher on the shirt and match the sleeve stripe with it, and put the BREW CREW script on the stripe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's definitely the goal with 'storytelling' designs, to do something clever but not too obvious, while still achieving the main goal of simply looking good. 23 hours ago, VampyrRabbit said: When choosing that shade of pink for the logo (which I am going to tweak when I have the chance), It was only intended to be used as part of the Marlin on the main uniforms, just a nice little tie to the masterpiece that is the Miami Art Deco district along with blue.

Yeah, I assumed the pink would be logo-only for your set (which works), I just wanted to extend it a little bit further. 23 hours ago, VampyrRabbit said: Make the stripe cream and move it higher on the shirt and match the sleeve stripe with it, and put the BREW CREW script on the stripe. Good idea: It's probably an upgrade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Inspired by Twitter user @SethR94’s wonderful Reds jersey concept (which I’ll link below), I've adjusted my Reds away jersey to match his wavy “Cincinnati” away wordmark, which itself was likely inspired by the 2015 All-Star Game logo & the Cincinnati flag. Here’s @SethR94’s original concept: 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Also, I updated my Spring Training template to include contrasting sleeves, two buttons, & a wordmark on the sleeve. They can be seen at this website, let me know what you think! https://mjd7design.myportfolio.com/spring-training Here are some of my favorites: 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayJ12 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 That powder blue Cubs jersey is a thing of beauty. They really need to commit to the 80s alt logo more on their uniforms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 Philadelphia Phillies City Connect I had this prepared after the Phils' jersey leaked, because to be honest, I didn't find much redeeming about it. It might be a near-copy of some earlier Sixers' City designs, but I honestly don't mind, it feels truer to Philly's history. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 I also just wanted to note that I updated the images throughout the thread, most of it was just updates to the backgrounds for improved contrast, with a few small tweaks here & there. You can see the most updated versions of all of my designs on my portfolio website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted April 20 Author Share Posted April 20 New York Mets City Connect Off of first impression, I honestly think this City jersey works really well for the Mets, so I didn't really make any changes. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
