neo_prankster Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Nice! For some reason, the Stars' pants looked lighter than the gold on the helmet. Was that intentional? The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkg74 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Quote Quote I thought so too, to differentiate themselves from the Stallions a little. The Stars' pants had more of a Mustard Gold tinge to them and the helmet was darker Mustard Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that intentional? Most likely was due to the fact that their specified gold is a Pantone Metallic color which doesn't usually translate well to flat fabrics, and I'm strictly using the Pantone specs in making these since otherwise there would be too much guesswork. Anyway, here's Pittsburgh -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed618 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Hard to imagine a Pittsburgh team wearing anything besides black and yellow... let alone purple and orange... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieRose Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Birmingham Stallions From what I can tell, the team used 2 different helmet decals, I'm not 100% sure on when each was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkg74 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 My all time favorite uniforms and logos are those of the Wranglers and the Panthers. Awesome work! and i love the Stallions too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n312rb Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 If anyone listens to podcasts, "Business Wars" just started a 6 part series on the USFL v the NFL, its a decent listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Charlotte Stars played only one game, and they wore their gold jerseys, according to a photo I found: They were renamed after that game, but the only alteration was once again to their helmet. They sported a simple white "C" for the rest of the season, until rebranding with the gold helmet, etc., the next year. Keep going though! It's great!

neo_prankster Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Also, on the Charlotte Stars, the NY was taken off the logo and the C was actually a trimmed Chicago Bears decal. The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieRose Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Back to work with the Oakland Invaders! I've had a few people reach out to me about this project (and some others in the past) and offered to compensate me in order to get these out more frequently and I've finally decided to create a Patreon. I'll still be posting everything here regardless of if I get any patrons, but I wanted to add in some extra perks for supporters. Don't feel obligated to sign up, I just wanted to toss it out there!

Note that the Stallions had a white outline to the pant stripe here. Not sure which year this was though (not the first, going by the Invaders uni). Also, the Maulers started out the season with that logo, and about halfway through, added white outlines around just about every logo element, so it could be seen better.

TruColor Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Just NOW seeing these. Wow. Fantastic job. And, you're even using my estimates for some of the USFL custom colors. The Stallions' colors were extremely problematic...here's what the official specs were: Red Seq Ink Base Formula % Parts 1 2B Red - FS1714 36.00 2 AOA Yellow - YQ1308 25.00 3 Mix in Black 1.80 4 Varnish 100.00 Gold Seq Ink Base Formula % Parts 1 Yellow - YQ1497 9.40 2 Red Lake C - RCQ1589 1.35 3 Aluminum Paste 13.00 4 Pale Gold 18.50 5 Moly Orange - 58OF637 10.00 6 Metallic Varnish 58.00 I just matched up logosheet scans against current Pantone Solid and Metallic Coated guides to get as close to the intended colors. I have a goal someday to work with Pantone on some of these custom ink mixes and get official Lab, sRGB and CMYK measurements for them. Others include the Gamblers' Red, and the Bulls' Burnt Orange.
