20-grade logos

[20_range]

the Unisphere kind of looks great no matter what I do to it, here it is in Mets colors and with the above colors reversed again


I'd like to extend the Met Life Tower or Singer Building ones to another team or two - alternate Giants and Yankees. I love how many old school NY teams tm1681 has made and maybe eventually I'll make a NY/Philly neighborhood league.

Here is Maracaibo as a White Sox farm team (or relocation), since the White Sox were the first MLB team to feature Venezuelan stars, Chico Carrasquel and Luis Aparicio.

Pretty straightforward, los Reales de Cartagena, colors from the flag of Cartagena

Ah, but then I thought, I could flip it over, to depose the monarchy, and the team became Liberatores de Cartagena. I feel like this is actually a pretty plausible team name, like the many Patriots. There's a Mexican basketball team that uses it. But I'm not in love with the name, so I might use the BC versions (Barranquilla y Cartagena, or Beisbol Club of Cartagena).


I'm pretty happy with flipping it over, though. The top part even looks like a fortification pointing north toward the Caribbean

[20_range]

here it is in the national flag colors, which are shared by Colombia and Venezuela since they used to be part of the same country, so this one could be located in Cartagena or Caracas.

edit: I also redid the Nortenos logo from very early in this thread, it can now be an alternate or one of this team's minor league affiliates.

At the moment I'm going with the Cartagena Liberatores, and their AAA team, the Barranquilla Nortenos.

I'm so petty, but I really appreciate the "depose the monarchy" part! Really nice work!

my replacement for Houston. It took me a long time to come up with a name/concept I liked, especially with the space theme being taken by the Santo Domingo Astronomos in my league. I try not to be a tourist when I go places, but when I was in Houston for a wedding, I did stare at the trees like a mesmerized outsider. Our culture did not adequately prepare me for Texas being a swamp.

Very nice, 20!!!
It's Classic!!

The initial pun is meant to be an old minor league team (mirroring the Denver Bears), which has a fun "Millionaires"/
Rocky Mountain Oyster aesthetic. Then the replacement Rockies take inspiration from their name in 1993.



- and they add a second pun lol -


It is almost believable. It was 1993, and they did discover bones excavating Coors Field. They made their mascot a Triceratops. And I think the teamname "Tops" would look right on a jersey and make great baseball headlines.



This is the first of two or three dinosaur-themed Rockies replacements I'm making . Any of them could be located in Colorado Springs as a minor league team, or be used for a rookie level team. Not sure which one I'll pick for the majors yet.

The colors, font-ish and mountains come from their city connect hat, which I've been using for them since it came out

[20_range]

The Colorado Tyrants in Rockies purple and city connect green options. With paleontologist tool/murder weapon

I learned how to add nodes to create a dripping effect and this is what I've used it for

The sworn rivals of the Caracas Rojos, it's the Caracas Amarillos. They're named after the Araguaney, the national tree, and share a founding date with the real world Caracas Leones. Over the years since then the yellow-wearing team naturally became known as the Amarillos.



Their small logos are a lower case a, like 70s Atlanta, and the Indianapolis ABC's Negro League logo, because it is great, in Venezuelan colors.

* I learned how to make curved text fit an oval, and it only took me one year (actually I gave up for most of that time, but recently found a good tutorial). There are a bunch of logos in this thread that could stand to be updated, now that I understand how to do circular and ovular text.

I decided to make this historical sleeve patch of the real life Navegantes del Magellanes, while I'm reading about Venezuelan baseball and looking for fictional South American minor league team ideas

[20_range]

Someone asked for this. I don't make the rules.

the last one is in the Angels' colors

[20_range]

I've been working on some cat teams

this one has a future founding date (from dinosauryoshi's league) because baseball does not appear to be very popular in Guatemala at present

[20_range]

The last one is the glyph on the wikipedia page Jaguars in Mesoamerican cultures.
