Logos needed for 1901 league...

kleric · 05-14-2004, 03:18 PM

Had some owners that didn't/couldn't find any logos for their teams, and I have no graphical skills whatsoever.

Anyone wanna make some logos up for the following teams?

Bronx Bad Boyz
St. Louis Hourmen
Michigan Sharks
Miami Tidecats

Thanks!

Just don't confuse him with me.

kleric may be a Man of God...so I'm giving his thread a friendly bump.

God spoke to me and told me to bump it.

What is an Hourman? Give me something to work with if you have an idea and I'll see what I can do

His intent was to make fun of the Minutemen....
So think, 1776 Revolutionary soldier???
But instead, 1901, and in St. Louis? *heh*
It's a tough one, I realize.
He may just get a generic St. Louis logo soon.

Hourmen idea:

Make a clock with baseball bats for the hands...or maybe muskets for the hands.

Place a baseball as the center point of the clock with the hands radiating out of it.

Put hours 12, 3, 6, and 9 on the clock.

sounds difficult and fun.
EC thats very creative and once my mom gets off my laptop ima try it out.

I actually downloaded GIMP and gave it a try myself.
My result wasn't bad. And after losing all my work twice *sigh*, I came up with this:

Eugene Church · 05-22-2004, 11:31 PM

Nice effort...

Would shorter bats look better...they wouldn't cover the numbers.

Maybe you could replace all the numbers except for 12, 3, 6, and 9 with baseballs...just a thought.

Only working in Paint, and with basic cut & paste, so I've just been able to adapt a logo from my solo league [which was adapted from a UK rugby club]. But, here's my attempt for the Michigan Sharks.

Here's one you could try for Miami. I'm not real pleased with the lettering but the art came out OK I think.

Eugene Church · 05-24-2004, 11:44 AM

Cardinal Rule:

You really nailed the Tidal Cats with the wave and cat...excellent.

I agree the lettering looks like it is jammed to the top and bottom.

Would a smaller Tidal Wave figure give you room to improve the lettering?

kleric · 05-24-2004, 06:36 PM

I love the Tidecats logo! I'll forward it on to the owner. Thanks!

I think all I'm missing now is a logo for the Bronx Bad Boyz.

Cardinal Rule · 05-24-2004, 11:28 PM

Here's a revised Tidecats - I think the lettering is better on this one.

kleric · 05-24-2004, 11:39 PM

Yeah I like the lettering in the 2nd one too.
Thanks for all the help everyone.

Eugene Church · 05-27-2004, 12:41 PM

That Tidal Cats is very very fine...and you improved the lettering with #2.

You must have created this yourself...I have never seen a logo that fits the nickname so well...and Tidal Cats is not a common everyday nickname.

Well done.

davwms · 05-27-2004, 06:46 PM

I didn't see anyone else tackle this one so here ya go.. Some might consider it a little offensive, though.. :-)

davwms · 05-27-2004, 07:19 PM

Sharks...

Eugene Church · 05-27-2004, 07:31 PM

davwms, those are extremely well done.

I hope you do some of my future requests.

You are an expert.

It is great to have someone of your graphics skill on the Logos Forum.
