'The Point' Poster Idea

[SFgiant]

Hi guys. Me again with a graphic design related post. As you guys could probably tell by my username, I'm a huge baseball fan. The niche, old timey feeling of the sport has allowed creators to make some awesome products, namely posters. I thought I'd have a go at shifting the sport to footy, and what better footy moment to chuck on poster than Barry Breen's wonky kick. I feel as though I got everything right, please feel free to point out otherwise.

I'm not a graphic designer per se, so I have no idea how to or whether I should sell these given enough interest. Also, check out my St Kilda logo refresh here. I'm constantly tinkering with the presentation and construction of the crest. Plus the portfolio views won't hurt.

Logo looks amazing mate, love the vintage touch to it. Much better than our current one.

What a great idea , you should approach the club and see if they would interested in some sort of 50/50 split or whatever . I've never seen anything like it for Barry Breens point , I think you might have a big seller there. Make sure you get it copywriter first. I know a lot of Saints fans who would probably buy something like that . Can't say for certain of course but it's worth getting it out there.
It would make a brilliant framed poster.

SFgiant, please make this in to a t-shirt on Redbubble (or Zazzle) and PM the link to me so I can buy it!

Oh ... I think the trajectory of Barry Breen's kick should should the ball bouncing through for a point ... for historical accuracy

I think that might be the way to go. This sort of stuff is a hobby of mine, not exactly a career. I also have no idea how to copyright it, nor would I even want to. I'm pretty sure there are companies out there (in the US) that already do this sort of thing.
Anyway here's an update.

When I first clicked this I thought it was a poster about the Milne bounce... I was like, who on earth wants to remember that let alone put a diagram of how it happened on their wall.

One of my favourite posters, pardon the pun. Somebody at the club get this man’s logo infront of the right people!

Love how it gives the time and scores. Improved version with the wobble where it bounced . Would make a great t-shirt too . See the club about that too , I would love a tshirt of that like Dct66 said
