MLB2: Chicago Cubs

7/30 Chicago Cubs
I didnt really want to change the Cubs much. I made the blue darker, instead of adding navy. I also dropped the C logo. What I used, was the C with the walking cub logo. The scripts are a font, to keep them consistent. "Chi-ago" and "ubs" are in this font, and the center C in Chicago, and the C in cubs is the logo. The cub face logo is on the sleeves.
The jerseys are somewhat different. They are in the same font as the script. The back numbers are now red, with white outline. Currently is blue and red, which looked weird as shown. The new cap logo is on the chest. My road script is on the grey jersey, and has red numbers to match. Lastly, the cub face is on the chest on the blue jersey.

MLB2: St. Louis Cardinals

6/30 St. Louis Cardinals
I love the Cards' set now, the thing is, their package isn't bold. It's plain red, and navy, then with a weak yellow. I took that into consideration and have a product I'm happy with. The yellow is much darker.I basically used the same primary, but with the arch from the allstar game logo. The birds on bat logo is the same, but I added a St. Louis one for the roads. Kept the StL, added a bird head, and the primary without Cardinals for a patch.

The jerseys are my favorite. They have a badass retro jersey with piping running up the sleeves. The current has no piping what-so-ever. This also plays into the bold affect. The road caps are the same as the home, instead of the current navy.

MLB2: Milwaukee Brewers

5/30 Milwaukee Brewers
I like the current scripts, colors, and cap logos, but I also like the old barrel guy. I mixed the two with this concept. One thing, I did NOT use the ball in glove logo like EVERYONE who has ever done a Brewers concept ever before. The current cap logos and scripts look great so I used them. I made a B cap logo for an alt cap. The barrel man is a must, it is just soooo awesome. The primary started out as stripes like the barrel man. But it looked odd. I just had a plain white home. I like the current numbers, so I used them with the same shadow effect. No weird names though, just plain block. Here. Look at it. Now.


I'm glad I changed the colors from royal blue to navy. Much better.

MLB2: Atlanta Braves

4/30 Atlanta Braves
So just some things, I LOVELOVELOVE the A tomahawk logo. That's the primary in this set. I thought it was a simple replacement for the script primary, it just seemed too wide. I also replaced the yellow with a peach-y colour, just to see how it looks. I thought it was pretty good so you we it here. The Atlanta and Braves script remained, and I added Georgia under the A logo as a sleeve patch. The jerseys are really the same for the home and alt. I think they have one of the best sets in the league. HOWEVA, the blue alt they use now sucks. Why don't they just make the jerseys like the shirts they sell? Well. I did.
ENJOY!

MLB2: Houston Astros

3/30 Houston Astros
Big change from last time. I decided that I wanted to change the D-backs colors, so that opened up the red-sand color scheme. I didn't change the logos. I think they have a very solid look with the star logo, and western type cursive. The premise was to focus on red. It is apparent in the jerseys. The red caps are full time, with red scripts and numbers. The road is now a sand color, rather than grey. That's pretty much it.

MLB2: Oakland A's

2/30 Oakland A's
Not sure about you, but I like the whole white elephant story, and I think it's a shame that the elephant isn't used much. So I brought it back! BAM. I just ran the script over the ball on the primary. I also like the A's cap logo I used better than the current, like the Tigers logo. I got rid of the outlines on a green background, just because white outline with yellow is weak. I had to do something with the A's jersey. Theres no design on them now, so I threw some piping on the sleeve cuffs, but thats it, no neck. I really like how it turned out. Also only used one cap, instead of many caps without much difference.

MLB2: Anaheim Angels

Going alphabetically by team name.

1/30 Anaheim Angels
I changed a little since I did this concept last time. One major thing was making them the Anaheim Angels, and not Los Angeles. I took out the LA logo, and script, and brought back the old road script. The primary is a home plate beveled like the A logo. I think it works and adds to the "A" primary. From last time, I changed the jerseys. The last ones were vests, with red sleeves. I decided to make them full jerseys.
