Brandiose Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 We just dropped the Mobile BayBears new home cap over at The Clink Room. We also posted "behind the scenes" sketches from the project.The embroidery incorporates a design concept that we developed while spending a day with New Era’s digitizers in Buffalo. Our goal was make the bear appear to be emerging from the darkness. We started by embroidering the majority of his head in the same color thread as the cap color. Then we broke the large navy area into smaller fur fields, giving the head dimension. Now when the glossy navy thread catches the light, it gives this simple logo a furry 3D look. One we’d never seen before.Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfish13 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I think the sketch of the bear head, and the bear head over the "m" in your sketches are better than the final bear head. Jut my opinion though, great job either way. dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krona Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Looks great. I'm interested to see how charcoal thread on black would look...maybe the next entry after the SSL? Is it too late to tweak my Bombers entry? I really like the sketch of the crest with the wrought iron touches. Always look forward to your behind the scenes posts.

TruColor Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 One question - in the official file (at least, in the official file I have), the cap color is actually a different shade of Navy than the logos. Is that correct? This Dark Navy is not listed as an official color in the sheet, but it does allow you to see the dark-vs.-not-quite-as-dark Navy in the logos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopskid Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Perhaps it's just the colors,but I can't help not thinking about the Memphis Grizzlies when I see this logo.Great work tho, looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cap color and thread color are exactly the same (PMS 289). The variance you're experiencing is due to how MLB sets up their slicks.Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, those files use C:100 M:44 Y:00 K:76 which is an old process simulation of PMS 5395 C...maybe they just wanted to show a subtle difference...

BallWonk Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 We just dropped the Mobile BayBears new home cap over at The Clink Room.

Great work.A question: Does the BayBears new road jersey have the same swinging-bear patch on the sleeve as the home jersey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
