In my downtime lately I've been researching and tracing old WFL, USFL, etc. logos and I figured it was about time I did something more useful with them. Major credit goes to the Gridiron Uniform Database, @CC97, and @ColorWerx for all the references! Feel free to follow along as I upload to imgur. Here's some WFL stuff to start --

I'm actually working on gathering more and cleaning up my current UFL resources. One of my goals is to also have a flat version of each team's logo in their Pantone colors (thanks @ColorWerx!) --

All the other XFL primary logos

XFL Birmingham Thunderbolts Full set on imgur -- https://imgur.com/a/47wzyuc

Made myself a template that you can feel free to use -- Vector and Paint Files Let me know if you use these and if you have any feedback!

Slightly more challenging -- EDIT -- It's Aura Oblique

I'm re-creating a lot of the XFL identities, and this font is driving me crazy --

The new templated designs are worse than ever before, so I took matters into my own hands. I decided to go with the same sponsor setup that the NBA has, with the exception of Verizon which was moved to the back under the numbers. First up - Las Vegas Aces

Updated the Sparks collars to match the rest of the trim. Washington Mystics -- I have some "Statement" edition unis and whatnot that I'll post as soon as I mock them up, but this wraps up the main part of the series!

Phoenix Mercury

I was hoping the blue stripes would avoid that scenario, I'll have to change that up. LA Sparks - inspired by retro Lakers and I created a new wordmark for the jersey that fits with the Lakers brand and drops the swoosh from the R.

Minnesota Lynx - Inspired by but not completely copying the Timberwolves

Indiana Fever - This is the first one with a stock Nike design (Nike Breakaway) that I tweaked to make unique to the team.

Chicago Sky --

Dallas Wings - got rid of the royal blue and red, they only served to distract from the otherwise really tight color scheme. Also made a new "Dallas" wordmark to match the "Wings" and a modified version of the Hornets number font.

Here's my tweaked WNBA logo - New York Liberty, inspired by the Knicks with some Liberty Green to help them stand out --

Connecticut Sun I upgraded the secondary logo to the primary and ditched the current primary. For a new secondary, I made a cleaner version of the sun in the Mohegan Sun logo.

Atlanta Dream -

So I'm not sure if that logo was actually released or just from something I downloaded, SO instead of that here's Seattle! Inspired by the 90's SuperSonics.

I've been toying around with 3D models and software lately, and here's the first "sports texture concept" I've made that's worth posting! Instead of my usual Photoshop mockups, I've taken my design and placed it in a texture for a 3D model, which I then rendered. Here's my original design and then what came of the rendering. It's just a football helmet for now, but as I find more resources I'll expand on the types of designs I can display! My EFL team Helmet Renderings These two took about 12 hours in total to render (the translucency on the facemask clips ramps that up) You can check out the model in more detail on Sketchfab -- https://skfb.ly/6xHAJ

Tennessee Titans concept -- https://skfb.ly/6xKHH Each of these took about 2 hours to render, much better than the 12!

I've toyed with a similar idea, great execution so far!

I used Adobe Dimension CC, which is new so they're still working out the kinks. I found the model for $50, but I've also seen others for free that are decent if you can convert them to an OBJ or other format you need.
