Ink Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Here's my first attempt at an updated Royals concept. The seams need a lot of work. Thoughts on the crown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Not an improvement over the current one. And the gold and blue outlines seem to disappear in the cutouts of the letters in the script. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their current is among the worst logos in baseball IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Impaler Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Really like the idea. The crown needs work though, needs a little more detail, it looks unfinished as it is. Maybe try throwing in a blue outline inside the gold of the crown if that makes sense. So you would have gold crown, blue outline, and then a gold outline outside of that.

McCall Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I didn't say there's was one of the best, I just said this isn't an improvement. That being said, there logo really isn't all that bad. I can understand your idea here, but it's awfully similar to the alternate logo they used during the black period, which was rather cookie cutter. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared222 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Very solid and I like where it is going. Im not sure they need a baseball backdrop though. Maybe try it with just the script and the crown. But I do like the gold being added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Wolf Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I really like what they have now, but I definitely wouldn't mind something like this being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared222 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Also perhaps you could shrink the ball to fit between the R and L and just have upper seams and a more defined crown. Just ideas though. Very good start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleujayone Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I'd keep your current logo as the wordmark. But for inspiration for a new logo, I'd look at a King playing card "Bicycle Style" Obviously the red wouldn't be there, but the font the "K" is in could be made into a new "KC" cap mark. And for a secondary logo on the sleeve maybe a king swinging a bat in place of his sword and outfitted in a baseball jersey. Maybe use a simplified version of his crown on "R" of the wordmark. Just an idea. King Card We all have our little faults. Mine's in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
