winters in buffalo Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Presenting..... the Memphis Ribs!Believe it or not, this is my very first baseball concept. I had the idea for a minor-league team last weekend while watching the Food Network and have been working on it for the past week. Several revisions later (my first few designs, while well thought out, looked crappy), I finally have something presentable. Do not adjust your monitor, the home uni is bone, not white. In fact, there's no white in the concept. Comments, critiques, suggestions and free beer welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernd Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 The red uni with "bone" pins look a bit too...meaty, I guess is the word.'Other than that, great looking MiLB duds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winghaz Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 They better serve barbecue at their home games. Man, just looking at that makes me hungry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 They better serve barbecue at their home games. Man, just looking at that makes me hungry. I agree. They better follow the way of the Biscuits and serve their namesake at their games. Even though it would suck to be the guy who has to clean up the stadium after the game.

nafsder2003 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 My only concern is that the "ribs" in the primary really don't look like ribs. They look more like red fish sticks. Or mozzarella sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampman Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Nice job, a great minor league idea--I'd like to see them play the Modesto Nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitaminD Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 MMM, ribs... *drools*BTW, what's the font you used to label your designs? Never seen it, looks hand-done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winters in buffalo Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 MMM, ribs... *drools*BTW, what's the font you used to label your designs? Never seen it, looks hand-done. The labels are a font called Sketchy, and the copyright is FatStack. Both are freebies I found awhile back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or mozzarella sticks. I was a bit concerned about that myself, but I wanted to keep it as clean and simple as possible. I tried something more realistic, but it looked like clip art, and a more stylized version was way too abstract. Fortunately, I didn't make any marks with the ribs standing alone, so I think I'd avoid confusion there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect Zero Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 While I can't say I love the name, I really like the work and effort you put into it. They look really nice, especialy the uniforms. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilaLogos Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 this is really awesome. The scripts are great and I like the flame over the I's. You shgould show an entire uniform, I think they'd be great. What font did you use for the "Memphis" script?? I've been looking for a good cursive baseball font.

I just fattened it up with an offest path and gave it a little rotation.I'll probably work these, and the other one I posted, into full unis.
