heernumurr Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Here's another idea, hopefully a bit better than the last one. This is for Carlos Zambrano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heernumurr Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Not sure if this works yet, maybe someone else can add something/modify it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Not sure if this works yet, maybe someone else can add something/modify it.how about instead of the stroke between the Z and horns...try to mesh them together for one solid look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 I like the first Zambrano, but would like it more, if the seams of a baseball were worked into the circle with the Z. Otherwise, it looks empty and not like a bull or anything. Off The Top Rope: A Pro Wrestling Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinsTerritory Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Cola, awesome work! I love the Prince Albert one, and the David Price one is very cool too. Keep it up! Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinsTerritory Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Also, maybe if I could just make a suggestion for future players. It'd be interesting to see some ideas for Justin Morneau, Joe Mauer or Carlos Gomez (yes, I'm a Twins guy ) Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Going back to Pujols because I think of the guys I've done so far, he is most marketable...most feared hitter in the MLB one could say and is still fairly young. I saw a graphic that gave me an extra idea and I also added one more crown option, although I can't say if I am a fan of it or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbreadmann Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I think Pujols would be a great idea. On your logos, like I said before, the AP looks like a complete afterthought.On the bottom ones though, I kinda actually like the distorted 5 with the crown, though I don't think there should be 2 5's in one logo. I may mess around later and see what I can come up with. But I like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinsTerritory Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I like the top right one of the new Prince Albert ones. Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 I really like the distorted 5's because they almost look like a Superhero's crest. I agree about two 5's in one place. I'd say EITHER nothing at all on the crowns, or AP. Or just ALBERT. Off The Top Rope: A Pro Wrestling Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 oops...that wasn't supposed to be a 5 at the top...supposed to be AP. anyhow, I'm on my way home from work to make some updates- that was a rough vector from sketch anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 another idea, and also kind of feeding into the superhero crest thing... maybe we could figure out how to work some blue into it? like a navy, so let's say someone bought a shirt and was wearing it with the Cards road cap, it wouldn't look out of place.

Cola Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I think Pujols would be a great idea. On your logos, like I said before, the AP looks like a complete afterthought.I see your point...but on the other hand, it simply wasn't an afterthought. I sketched it with the intention of making the AP flow with the tail of the 5 (the reason I used a custom "A"). Also, I didn't show that logo and then 4 or 5 revisions down the road just throw that AP in there- the judges should notice that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Updated and cleaned up the previous logo with a couple options: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Part of me feels like this is the one, Cola.It's got personality, it's aesthetically pleasing, there are a lot of things you can do with it, marketing and merchandise-wise.I doubt we see something that beats it, honestly.And I prefer it with the Albert across the top.

lets_go_red Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Sorry I've been gone guys...crazy week. Working out, working, and applying for a new school. I'm really digging the Albert Pujols stuff. I'm gonna see what I can whip up in the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if it said "PUJOLS" or "ALBERT PUJOLS". I like the "ALBERT" but when I stare at it, I feel like it either needs more or it needs nothing up there at all...maybe it just needs to grow on me.

gingerbreadmann Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 You know what? Try it without anything on top. It would be incredibly hard to reproduce on smaller things and it would be all garbled and now I think it is just clutter to be honest. How about putting just a star in the middle of the crown?And I think the yellow needs to be a tad more golden, but the basic structure is fantastic, Cola...I think Pujols would be a great idea. On your logos, like I said before, the AP looks like a complete afterthought.I see your point...but on the other hand, it simply wasn't an afterthought. I sketched it with the intention of making the AP flow with the tail of the 5 (the reason I used a custom "A"). Also, I didn't show that logo and then 4 or 5 revisions down the road just throw that AP in there- the judges should notice that as well.That may be, but for anyone who looks at it it doesn't look like that at all. Putting the AP at the tail of the 5... just lacks character, it could be for anyone. It looks like you designed it and forgot it's for Pujols so you put AP in wherever it could fit. And they might notice that but I think they'd still see what I see, and who knows, you could have added it 4 or 5 revisions down the road but just never released it without the AP. I'm just trying to be honest here so we have the best possible chance to win. However, I think the new 5 is just great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinsTerritory Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Sorry to post this message here. I was looking at all this good work and tried to PM you about something gingerbreadmann. Your inbox is full...Back on topic. The newest Albert ones are great. The colors go with him much better and having his number with the crown is great. I'd like to see what you guys could do with AK47 as gingerbreadmann mentioned. Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
