GeorgesL Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I wanted to design a cool NY Knights baseball logo, unique, bold, simple yet edgy and modern, and I came up with this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameroncrazie07 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Very cool, I've always wanted to design a logo for a team called the Knights, but I never had the time. The Core 4 Sports Podcast Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 this very well done! the sword look seriously dangerous. This doesnt scream baseball logo to me though, more like a college logo or something like that, but design-wise, it's great. I like the horse's face and it'd be cool to see a secondary or something of just the horse's head or sword with the background shield shape.Im not much of a movie buff, but is NY Knights the team in "The Natural"?

MrCanadien999 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 it seems to me that there is to much going on in the "knights" its kinda hard to read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fumbler Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Good logo.A little too dark for me, but all round well done. RICHMOND TIGERS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 The logo is very well done, and I like the horse/knight hybrid as DeFrank mentioned.However, it looks more like a basketball logo than a baseball logo. I guess I could see this going on the sleeve, but what would go on the hat? Is there an "NY" on the way?This might not be bad though, as the Nets are moving to Brooklyn soon...

Funkatron101 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Stupid question, but is that supposed to be a shield, or his shoulder?It looks a bit off proportionally either way. If it's his shoulder, then he has one giant left arm and one stubby right arm. If it is supposed to be a shield, he is holding onto it in a very unnatural way.

pianoknight Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I would maybe try compressing the wordmark vertically. Right now, it seems a bit too tall, which contributes to the "hard-to-read" factor. Maybe trying flattening it a smidge. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

Just thought I'd throw in that possibility.he also needs an eyeballAgreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Change the "New York" to "Brooklyn" and change your sport to basketball and you have a winner.

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

bohob Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 If he is holding the shield out, it should be significantly bigger. That size shield probably wouldn't cover his entire arm. I also think adding a pupil to his eye would help.

Just thought I'd throw in that possibility.It still looks off to me from a perspective standpoint. There is no illusion of depth, so the shield looks like it's just a part of the armor. If there was the appearance of an arm and hand behind it, I think it would look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgesL Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 Fixed, I shortened the "Knights" script, and added the much-needed pupil.I'll be working on uniforms tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
