Bearcats Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I've been waiting months for the return of the MLB redesign project. :::tears in his eyes::::I like that logo but I don't think the Cardinals would ever move in a direction that modern. That would have been cool for the Arizona Cardinals though.Unis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Yikes. I love it for some kinda maybee football sports team, but i hate it for the St. Louis Cardinals.

AAO Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 Yea if you guys remember most of the concepts in this project were kinda...unrealistic, radical, out of the box, at least for the MLB. Remember, no more road grays? Keep the c and c coming. Behance Network || ianbakar.com || Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 That would have been cool for the Arizona Cardinals though. My thoughts EXACTLY. The cardinal logo would fit very nicely on a helmet, methings. It has a "flow" to it that is very similar to the Carolina Panthers.

Natsfan36 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 IMO, when i think of baseball, i dont think of mean logos.. i.e. fierce faces.(this does not have a fierce face, but looks pissed off)...but in football, i can really see this as a logo.....i like a lot of the concepts you do, keep them coming... I just wanna do hoodrat things with my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVZ Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I think that the cardinals just need a few tweaks and the would have the perfect uniform. I like that you're trying to go modern with baseball. I'm tired of seeing the same things over and over again. Ijust think that the cardinals isn't the right team to go modern with. Try the Nationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingssss Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 My favorite of the 3 is the bird by itself, I think that's a great logo. The primary one is great, too. To me, though, you can't really see the STL in that secondary logo. I like the idea, but it's tough to see the STL that it's supposed to be, imo.

lilgump Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I like the secoundary interlocking letters with the arc, very nice The World Basketball Championship, the Davis Cup, Ryder Cup, Iraq: Every day there's further proof that we, as a nation, are not very good at international competition.

AAO Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Thanks for your input guys. Yea the 'STL' secondary I did actually about 8 months ago, looking back on it, it kind of is the odd one out from the 3 logos.

SEMOSTLfan Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 i really like this design its solid an pretty cool looking...since you made it understood that this was pretty much an unrealistic change, i'll spare yelling at you for destroying the cardinals classic look.

TwoRsAndTwoLs Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 yeah, the current STL logo is pretty iconic. I don't seem to remember you picking a really iconic team up until now.... I would love to see what changes you might make to your logo set to make the classic STL fit -- but hey, it's your project. Keep up the good work, man.

VitaminD Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I'm Cards-neutral but I love their uniforms, and can't picture them changing.But I am also aware of the usual AAO ground rules, so I am thinking outside the box... or at least trying to.I like the new wordmark - it looks modern but yet retains a mildly traditional, refined look given the style of font. But the "STL" monogram really looks out of place - it's thick and coarse where the wordmark is neither. I'd rather see you go with the wordmark (and bird head) and come up with a monogram more along the lines of the other design marks. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

AAO Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Appreciate it guys. Yea like i said, the STL secondary was done about 8 months ago before i did the new wordmark, so its not really gonna fit.

andrewharrington Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 That's a nice logo. I like the dignified, puffed-out chest. Not sure if it would lend itself to a cap, but its pretty good noneheless. I like the wordmark, as well. That typeface has been one of my favorites as of late, too. See Oregon Chinook.

JPBlueHen Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 As a Cardinals fan, I'd have to say that I like this concept a lot, but not for my team. I think the Cardinals have one of the best logos in all of baseball and don't need to change it. However, this logo would look great with the Arizona Cardinals or even the Louisville Cardinals.

PhilaLogos Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Putting the tradition factor aside, I think it's a great concept, especially the cardinal. I don't love the STL though, the text and yellow bevel doesn't seem to mix with the rest of the concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigShoop Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 if you could somehow incorporate the gold that you have in the alternate, into the wordmark, that would be spectacular.actually, the alternate is cool looking, yet kinda hard to decifer too. you gotta kinda look at it twice to figure out what it is. BUT, work with it, cause its got definite potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybird Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I actually started this back in March or so, but got back to it just now. No unis as of yet, but this is what i've got. This might just spark the resurrection of the MLB redesign proj. Try that idea for the Cardinals' AAA affiliate, the Memphis Redbirds. I think they need a logo update. Atlanta Braves, please bring back the Indian Head logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmee Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Overy stylized bird? CheckLight colored wordmark on solid dark background? Check.Only half of the wordmark has highlights? CheckUnnecessary and exaggerated serifs? Check.For a second I wasn't sure if it was an AAO design, but then I went down my checklist and everything's there. It's an okay set, but it's exactly what I expected when I opened the thread. Granted, every artist has a certain style, but I can't help but think that all of your stuff looks alike.
