  1. Team #14 and it's back to the AAF and since we have been all east as of late.... time to head West.

    ARIZONA HOTSHOTS

    ABLVV86vh3H5j1Ibzoiw5b29G5iRa21MhdVUJMBx

    ABLVV87nma5BrPdaoKaE4RBZe-3gPi-zB0hD3tSB

    The Hotshots and Arena Football.... a dream combination if there ever was one, the idea just works and I didn't mess much with the design of the hotshots just added the design you see on the sleeves and pants... kept the green, orange and yellow combo because it's a unique scheme in general football design.

  2. Team 13 now and we're heading back into the USFL range for a team well known for it's signature Banditball as it enters Arenaball.

    TAMPA BAY BANDITS

    ABLVV86I81ekCywo5lZ-JhjCc7iV_D_RpGlaDGH4

    ABLVV86R1KOwSs7DV715koTsx6p4L7DwvXQfWTw9

    Them Bandit boys are a side that I feel would embrace Arena Football alot especially with the style of uniform that I went for them.... As it turns out the Bucs coloring of the late 90's is what the Bandits really need and I could of merged them again like I did in the USFL thread but I liked the AFL11 logo for the Bandits so I used that as well as the 2022 redesigned secondary logo... and went with G/R/G and G/W/G with Black and Red alternate pants.

  3. And now it's time to restore balance into this universe and to restore a team's natural colour to it's original form and none of this black and gold cancer that seems rampant in Pittsburgh.

    "bashes Yinzers from the thread"

    WHAT IS UP WITH BLACK AND GOLD IN :censored:ING PITTSBURGH, JUST BECAUSE THE STEELERS BLACKMAIL THE CITY DOESN'T MEAN YOU ADAPT TO THEIR BOLLOCKS

     

    Anyway let's move onto the next USFL team that personally should never of succombed to that horrenous cancer.


    PITTSBURGH MAULERS

    ABLVV86gnfJRz44XCiI0_iglJbDo23G88ngC6Yww

    ABLVV87pzFdmQl75k_H3HE3Ke2cRlKfdlNq06Ocm

    The Maulers in my opinion need to have a more sturdier spine and a fortitude to essentially say no to black and gold cancer no matter how slimy any of it's reps are.... the purple, orange and grey was fine by my opinion but the uniforms they had was of the later stages of the Frankfurt Galaxy which quite frankly no one needed to see again... well that and they aren't the team that shouldn't of needed a yolk.

    So this is what I come up with instead... stripings and home silvers with colored/white roads

  4. Anyway moving onto team 11.... and in the XFL, one team rightly reclaims its home.... :censored: the Rock.

    NEW YORK GUARDIANS

    ABLVV86t-2v730N9XQzotDT8G7dJFVV16CE83Vy0

    ABLVV84EEUgBn1F70swe9f7nBdfCPRbICgx4Zfzj

    The Guardians don't belong in :censored:ing Orlando, they belong in :censored:ing New York.... the original design was perfect, the concept I did was perfect and like gargoyles I adapt this team to Arena Football and so with everything else being reverted to the 2020 look minus the 2023 logo but done in red.... the original logo depicited a gargoyle whilst the tarded logo looked like a cougar...


    Seriously Dwayne which :censored:ing genius you hired thought GARGOYLES BELONG IN :censored:ING ORLANDO?!

     

    In all seriousness this allowed me to work on a two tone black theme and keep the silver as the offwhite... WHICH :censored:ING WORKED PREVIOUSLY.

  5. Before we move onto team #10.... I should mention that the last couple of helmet designs were influenced by @WideRight and @edjb93.... the former noticed pretty much and was ok with me doing it as long as I mention him in future posts which is alright with me because whilst I freely admit I am no artist when it comes to logos... uniforms is where I shine the most and tbh most of the Arenaball teams have never been good in the logos especially the early years...

    See? Plus there isn't much concepts out there of Arena Football teams period especially when you Google search for design ideas.... however I did want to update on the home look for the Dynamite.

    ABLVV85dy1MbtyTcRgtq0zTZLKLYMEVMrqgSDuXU

    See that the blue on the yellow has been replaced by the white? It was like the off colour for the Iron I did.... consistency.

     

    Now with that bit of legalise over with... it's time for team #10 and Arena Football's first major juggernaut.

     

    DETROIT DRIVE

    ABLVV879sECYQ8ZFUleyNVXprh86qvlQt_Oi8yDy

    ABLVV85GIs_wzRH9W1Tcrk68J6q98-xN_O86eXPS

     

    The AFL has three major periods in it's history and with the conclusion of the first period there was a team from Detroit that literally ran over everyteam in it's path.... 4 time Champions and they played in Joe Louis Arena where the Red Wings won Lord Stanley 11 times... four of those they fought against BITTER 90's rivalries the former Quebec Nordiques aka the Colorado Avalanche aka the big rivalry of said hockey era.

    Anyway back to tangent.... elements of @WideRight appear here in the logos and the helmet design for whilst the drive's logo is fine and all, it's kinda dated and thus doesn't suit the modern era.... although I used the original colours of the Drive.

    If you look at this crisp design and scheme, I would say they are like the Houston Oilers.

  6. Team 9 is quickly done just like that and looking at the thread there has been a lack of Arena Football teams that have that look... you know the look that makes you stop for a few minutes and then take a closer look to see if it's real or not.

    In early years of Arena Football there was a team that only lasted two years but they are the first Western based indoor team and they didn't have an impressive logo nor a uniform set.... well until concepts took off that is.

    DENVER DYNAMITE

    ABLVV85ZItLTs6xHK_7EFpgsxwxUThK1DXvPVXHG

    ABLVV86GO3VhzpT2XuE-0ft02S5lAwU8BLVSj5kk

    The Dynamite should have an explosive reaction when it comes to uniforms... essentially playing in what is Nugget colors with a royal blue that makes any Rams fan proud, I wanted to do something that is gripping and expressive.

    KABOOM

  7. Team 8 focuses on a design template that was perfected in the AAF but then they used it as home AND road and whilst it looked nice, it doesn't work for Arena terms so back to the blank canvas known as:

    BIRMINGHAM IRON

    ABLVV87lNHKBVH47IvOozgDBDxtCUkvDPVUWga7V

    ABLVV87taVJgAmfsLzQ-i97UoWPvyduIH9cEBC1F

    Non traditionalists like @Bomba Tomba shall celebrate in glee for the Iron has forged its way into Arena Football... a design already perfected, all I did was add alternate pants, side panelling and logos on the sleeves and pants... the helmet is blank as it was originally was, well that and logos don't work here.

     

    No relocation plans to Indianapolis as in previous terms btw, Birmingham is a hub zone by itself in the South.

  8. But I figured we would update again with another team in the USFL and let me put it this way....

    Navy and Gold does not belong here. "Kicks out the Navy and Gold Showboats from existence."

    With that fire hazard out of the way... time for the proper Showboats to shine.

    MEMPHIS SHOWBOATS

    ABLVV840xm6AR_Qiuni3q0ueoq-wFgHzW2InGk7H

    ABLVV87ly9xHcknZ1vGIj4Cj4tHcKjb-gYjlSNLd

    Oh Showboats what do I do with you? I've already used up the Silver Sky colorfont that @WideRight discovered and this is a team that doesn't deserve the Pekka Rine treatment no matter how officials and fans complain about how red heavy the current USFL is.

    So what I did was essentially bring the old colours back, darkened the silver, brightened the red and made a bright silver helmet to accompany the new logo.
