Undoubtedly, the Stars were marketed as Melbourne’s glamour club. No club in their right mind would call themselves the “Stars” and solely focus on a working class demographic. I don’t care for the name but its fine for the BBL. Their best asset by far is the green and silver colour scheme, not something typically associated with Melbourne sporting teams as far as I know.
The primary theme is based around Melbourne’s Federation Square, which features a striking tessellated façade. The pattern is based on pinwheel tiling and is less random than first impressions suggest. I originally made something that looked like it without applying the tiling principles but had to revisit it when I actually found out what pinwheel tiling was. A star was featured in the earlier pattern, similar to the team logo, but was ultimately scrapped.
The cap is green with contrasting silver bill. The tiling pattern is featured on the front panel and provides a backdrop to the logo.
The shirt is predominantly green with silver shoulders while the pants are similarly coloured.
The tiling pattern is featured on the shirt and in the contrast panelling of the pants. Its fairly subtle compared to most of the other teams in this series, with only the Scorchers having a more subdued design.

Silly question, but any reason why you went with a different green on the uniform compared to the logo?
Its basically the same green the Stars currently use. I guess they made the logo a bit lighter and brighter to pop on a green background – a good enough reason for me to keep doing so.
Might just be my eyes or my computer, but that green looks closer to the Heat’s teal. Might also be the combination with silver
The green has slightly more blue in it but nowhere near enough to make it teal.
Why do you add so much lime green to your desihns?
Move along, no lime green to be seen here…
