Okay, so I wanted to mess around with the World Baseball Classic logo. I’ve always thought it was pretty cool, and I wanted to see if I could recreate it, you know, just for fun and practice.
Getting Started
First things first, I needed a good reference image. I just googled “World Baseball Classic logo” and saved a high-resolution version to my computer. That way, I could really zoom in and see all the details.
Breaking It Down
Next, I took a good, long look at the logo. It’s not super complicated, but it’s got a few key elements:
- The circular shape
- The baseball stitching
- The stylized “WBC” letters
- The little flags around the edges.
The Process
I use a program, and I started by drawing a big circle. Nothing fancy, just a basic circle shape.
Then came the stitching. I did these lines going one by one, so it must be a simple work.
The “WBC” letters were a little tricky. I could find font that I like, then adjust the point to make the curve to make it a perfect fit.
Finally, the flags! This was probably the most time-consuming part. I didn’t want to get bogged down in every single flag, so I just focused on getting the general shapes and colors right. I figured that was close enough for this little project.
Putting It All Together
Once I had all the individual pieces, it was just a matter of arranging them. I played around with the sizing and positioning until it looked pretty close to the original. I also added a dark blue background, like the official logo.
The Result
It’s not a perfect replica, of course. But I’m pretty happy with how it turned out! It was a fun little exercise, and I definitely learned a few things along the way. And now, I have a better appreciation for all that is the World Baseball Classic logo.
