While I was working on this I was thinking about baseball logos, and how they get away with using a single letter or 2 letters and still represent their home city without crazy cartoony mascots. Good examples of 2-letter logos are the San Francisco Giants, New York Yankees, and LA Dodgers. A 2-word name like New Orleans was the perfect team to try this out on. For the hornet, I wanted it to look a little meaner and more realistic. I don’t know anyone from New Orleans but I’d love to hear what they think of this redesign.
