LMU Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 For this concept, I decided to scrap the modern wordmark and the "M" cap logo in favor of the original Killebrew era script, but with the colors inverted. The road script is from the 1961-1965 logo script, but with "Twins" and the two stars removed from within the wordmark, and with the star dotting the "I" replaced with a standard dot. The primary is the current alternate, but with a white circle containing the home script replacing the Twins current primary. I also changed the home pinstripes to navy colored, and I ditched the road pinstripes, because I can't stand road pinstripes.Home:Road:Alternate:Batting Practice:EDIT: Photoshopped the home wordmark's tail to the road wordmark.

TwoRsAndTwoLs Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I don't know if I'd go with the cursive script for "Minnesota"... but for kicks, why don't you try to photoshop the same tail as used on the "Twins" script? A little touching up on that would make it look better, I think, if only for consistency.He says, sounding like he's been at this business for years.Otherwise, I really like the home uni, and I'm a fan of the interlocking T-C Every Fifth Day is a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went ahead and edited it with my attempt to draw it in. That look better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoRsAndTwoLs Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 You can probably actually take the "Twins" script you had before, rotate it, select the tail, then resize it to fit "Minnesota" and it'll look cleaner, but yeah, I like it a bit more this way.... at least that's how I did it on my "Rams" script from yesterday (titled "in progress").

OnWis97 Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Very good. I love the alt--the worst thing about the current alts is that they have the same scripts as the primaries.The only thing I was not jazzed about was the Minnesota script, but it is probably as good as or better than the current road style.

Thad Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Sir if these were on the shelves at the Sports Fan Attic, they would be in the trunk of the car by the time i got into the car! I like how the alt has the same old timey feel with the throwback looking hat and then has a really cool jersey. That's how an alt should be in my opinion, a look at the past / trying something new for the future. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% about how you react to it.App State Mountaineers / Alabama Crimson Tide / Atlanta Braves / New York Jets / Atlanta Hawks "If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner.

FUNKAFIED Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I like these a lot, especially the scripted "MINNESOTA" on the grays rather than the block lettering they have now. Nicely done....now if they could just get out of that garage they call a baseball stadium. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted April 11, 2005 Author Share Posted April 11, 2005 Thanks for all the comments. Anyway, I just finished making some tweaks to the shoulder patches, replacing the script with the "TC" logo on the alternate shaking hands logo, and I placed an updated version of the current primary on the alternate, so that the "TC" wouldn't be too redundant on that. Here are the logos:Primary:Alternate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
