I wasn't happy with the shading on my earlier version. Here's a poem by way of explanation.

Up hasn't slept in days,
Down suffers from malaise.
Charm has a magic buzz.
Strange is as strange does.
Top is the king of the hill.
Bottom crashed; he's feeling ill.

I definitely used creative license, but I thought of it as two different baryons next to each other. Compositionally, it worked best like this. dsb exists, I'm not sure about uct though.

Nice design! Not to be a downer, but couldn't immediately see the "up-ness" for upquark or the "strange-ness" for strangequark.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm still learning how to do this stuff. I may hold on to this one and rework it later.
