vtgco Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Updated Fort Astoria is nice; I'll have to check out that column the next time I'm over there! I doubt it'd be an upgrade but I do kinda wonder how the back would look primarily yellow. Haven't watched the movie but that away is fun. Chehalem looks good, as they do IRL, and that home jersey is cool, though I'd maybe consider putting the Icarus logo up to one side like Adidas used to do? And I also think tonal blue herons might be nice instead of gold. Away jersey is solid. My goodness that Klamath Falls logo is really nice, and so is that home jersey! Definitely captures the beauty of Upper Klamath Lake IMO. The away is classy too, and it might be nice to do it in the tan color that the home's sleeves are. IDK why I find Hermiston kinda sillier in comparison to the other food teams but it's still pretty nice. Maybe it's just giving me bad flashbacks? Mt Hood's jerseys are gorgeous, especially that home jersey, which totally conveys skiing. Love it. The logo is quite nice too though I'd say the diamonds feel a touch lopsided. Also that video was really interesting; I supposed Seattle's Monorail isn't the only awkwardly-designed people-mover in Cascadia!

I definitely tried having a primarily-yellow back for the Astoria clash, and I promise you it didn't look great While I personally prefer the gold herons and stripes for the Chehalem home, I made a version where those are light blue just for you!

I'm glad you liked all these other teams! That's an...interesting Sounders kit I tried the Klamath clash in tan instead of white, but the tan ended up muddying the look of a kit that I wanted to keep as crisp as the lake. As far as Mt. Hood's crest is concerned, the slightly lopsided diamonds are actually intentional so that the diamonds fit the curved shield better (I couldn't make a good shield with straight-on diamonds).

I never thought that I needed a Pendleton x TheGiantsFan crossover, but this is absolutely awesome. I love the home kit -- the design, the colors, all of it. If I have one nitpick, though, it's that the white name and number is somewhat hard to distinguish from the orange top. Would an all brown name & number look more clear? Or white with a brown outline? I really like what you did with Roseburg too. The tree rings and diagonals are well-thought out. Also, I realized after commenting on Brookings that you mentioned in its details that it was influenced by Brighton & Hove Albion. I had to laugh at myself a little for stating the obvious with my comment. 1 Quote United Baseball Association | the MLB Ferris Wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
