BJBerthiaume Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Hey everybody. I haven't posted any concepts in a while, and the reason is because I have been working on this series for a solid 3 months now. I am a fan of crossovers, and I know many of you may not be, but I'm not forcing you to view my concepts or anything. I just love making crossovers as well. I got bored of my Big Ten redesign mostly because I couldn't think of any reasonable desings for the remaining teams, but I will be finishing that. This I will for sure finish, I am already almost done. All I have left are the NL Central and NL West. I didn't change all the baseball logos to hockey pucks or anything because the main part of this series is the jerseys not the logos. Also, I tried to make as many thirds as I could different from the primaries, but some of the thirds looked sweet with the primary design, so I kept it.So, here are the Orioles. The bird logo didn't look too great on a hockey jersey, so I went with the O's logo. This design isn't my best at all, but I thought it was a good one to start with. I will take requests after this from any division except the ones mentioned above. Once I finish another team, I will let you guys know. With that being said, here is the first one. C&C please, Enjoy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 My only worry about this is maybe the bird should be on the jerseys. Remember hockey jerseys tend to have logos on not scripts or letters! But I think these retain the Orioles identity whilst starting to look like NHL outfits as well. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyb Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I really like that alternative jersey I think the script looks great, kind of reminds me of the jersey the Halifax mooseheads were using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 The jerseys are solid, but IMO you used the wrong logos. I would've used the cap bird on the homes and aways and one of the bird mascots on the alternate...but that's just me so take that FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Looks good, but it seems random. Take cues from their jerseys. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJBerthiaume Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Looks good, but it seems random. Take cues from their jerseys.In many of the sets I have completed so far, I have taken cues from their jerseys. The Orioles just don't have anything hugely unique about their jerseys, so I didn't have much to work with there.I will post an update to the Orioles set with the birds later today hopefully.

I know a few teams have actually done this in the past and it never came out looking that good. I can think of Providence College off the top of my head.

I can think of Providence College off the top of my head.The only stripes I have so far are for the Yankees as an alternate. It is based off sizemorematters' concept a while back. They are more thick that pinstripes though. Kind of like the Canadiens alts.Any requests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJBerthiaume Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Here is an update to the Orioles with the Oriole instead of the O's logo.C&C still, and Enjoy!Angels next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Definitely like it better with the bird than with the O's logo. I think all you need is a thin white outline around the bird on the black jersey to set it off against the dark background, and that set is golden.

logocruncher Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Huge improvement. The bird translates well to the chest, and the basic design is excellent. I can't wait to see where this goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJBerthiaume Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 Here are the Angels. I tried to do a unique design with this one, and I did not include an alternate. The set just didn't seem to need an alternate, and navy isn't a big enough color in their scheme to create a navy alt, so I just skipped the alt for the Angles. C&C Enjoy! Any requests?

CAB Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Wow, that Angels set is nice. I kinda like crossovers and I am looking forward to the rest of this series.Also, how about the Red Sox next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 The Angels one looks good, but did you consider trying to swap the blue and white on the home jersey? It might look better that way, and more unique as you get into the other red-and-navy teams later on.And might I request the Blue Jays?

Especially a team whose primary color is red.Red Sox next, then Blue Jays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
