I just found this thread and the amount of talent on display is stunning... I can't even fathom how this stuff is accomplished. So with that in mind, I would love to request a couple of logos for some of my teams.... uniforms would be icing on the cake.
I know what I want, so excuse the blabbering. If this seems too demanding, I'm willing to take whatever anyone feels like doing.
1.
Washington Monuments: colors: red/white/blue. This is my HR-hitting team, so the idea is they're a bunch of immobile guys who just stand on base and wait for the next guy to knock them in. My idea was some sort of patriotic themed logo (
i.e., the Capital dome with the Washington Monument in front). I had trouble making the monument itself not look too phallic...I'd sort of like to avoid that.
2.
Leesburg Llamas: colors: "south american". All I got here is it should be a llama of some sort... cartoonish is fine. Since llamas are native to South America I thought it'd be appropriate to use colors that appear in many South American flags - things like red, green, yellow. No real preference for color besides a "South American feel."
I don't want to be greedy but if possible...
3.
Motown Stars colors: I am using black and gold but am open to colors that are more in sync with the Motown record label (red and blue?) This is a theme team using players from the "golden era" of Motown - from its founding in 1959 until Barry Gordy sold them in 1988. My idea was to use a Motown vinyl record as the circular logo, with 9 stars (9 baseball players... get it??!??!) in a circle arrayed around the record (either on it or just outside it). The stock record label has the word "Motown" on them and I wanted "Stars" rendered using the same font (it's a rainbow gradient, see below).
I would be forever grateful for any of these. Thankx in advance.
