Logo Request: Washington Nationals

DMGetz · 10-12-2004, 05:35 PM

If anyone has time and is willing, I'd love to be able to get a Washington Nationals logo.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to help

Washington Nationals.

Very nicely and creatively done, scotto...as usual.

DMGetz · 10-13-2004, 05:23 PM

Awsome, it looks great, thank you so much

and just for the hell of it...

Here's my first attempt; it didn't turn out as good as I hoped. In fact, I'd almost go so far as to say it's somewhat ugly. I just couldn't capture the design I saw in my mind's eye.

It also loses something when reduced to the 150x150 OOTP size. Oh well, hopefully the second idea I have will translate better.

I like it, however I think the blue might look better to be as dark as the one Scotto used, but that's probably just my personal preference. Other than that, the logo is great!

I decided to try and revise the first attempt before moving on to the second concept I had. I darkened the blue a bit as per Cuss' suggestion, and put a fountain fill in to try and make the central "W" stand out more and look somewhat metallic.

Le Grande Orange · 10-13-2004, 08:29 PM

Another slight variation, this time with the central "W" getting a red colour to make it more distinct.

I like it LGO. I am going to use it for a fictional league I am working on. Thanks.

Okay, concept two for the Washington Nationals logo. I'm definitely more pleased with how this turned out. I even stumbled upon a secondary version which I think works quite nicely.

Anyway, here is the primary version:

Le Grande Orange · 10-14-2004, 03:04 AM

The secondary version. I tried various combinations of shapes and colours behind it, but it always looked better with the background just being white.

You're good LGO. Keep it up.

Eugene Church · 10-14-2004, 08:40 AM

Very nice work on all of them, LGO.

I like the red "W"...I always like a little contrast in a logo...it makes it stand out a little better.
