Stampman Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Some nice use of colour & design here.For Benson, Arizona I'd have to include that they are nicknamed the Dark Stars--or something along those lines but that might just be me...

H11K Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 Cibola Crest update. Took a little bit of inspiration of the new West Ham crest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmiller5 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 That crest is improved; good job. The only thing I'm not really liking about Cibola is the placement of the advertiser on the home kit...not sure that it would look good below the chevron, but I would at least try it.

the_grateful_ted Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Not sure why but I think I like the previous version of the crest more. Guess it just made the shape more unique from the rest of the league not just a circle. Great colors great execution besides that IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great colors great execution besides that IMO I can understand that, as much as I wanted to keep it I think that the changes made just unified and simplified it more.That crest is improved; good job. The only thing I'm not really liking about Cibola is the placement of the advertiser on the home kit...not sure that it would look good below the chevron, but I would at least try it. I would, but watching the timbers game right now and seeing how their advertising placement is done I think mine would be much more visible.

H11K Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Rocky Top United:Brought into the league as the 5th team, Rocky top United was named for the surrounding mountain geography. Using a nice brick red and a lavender color that represents the late evening December skies, makesfor a very unique color scheme in the APL. The crest is pretty self explanatory, featuring the peaks of theWhite Mountains of Arizona, and also a crescent moon over a multi pointed star, as funny as it sounds, the star has 10 pointsrepresenting every team in the league. Pocky Top is the only club to do such thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pocky Top is the only club to do such thing. I'm not feeling this one. The colors aren't working at all for me.They feel really awkward and the purple kind of hurts to look at. The rendering of the mountains looks too haphazard, and I don't much like the moon or star. The negative space above the mountains feels too tense.I do like the white set. The purple feels toned down and the large amount of white stops the rust from being overwhelming. The stripes are classy, too. laurenlogos.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uglybus Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 The lavender doesn't really fit. I'd pick a different color. "Okay, Mr. OKC, you obviously have never been to Louisville." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H11K Posted December 12, 2015 Author Share Posted December 12, 2015 FC Snowflake: (REPLACES ROCKYTOP)After the owners had previously released the team crest and kits, the fans rejected them greatly. The Ownership decided to do a total as they had enough time to do so before season play started. Naming the team after nearby city, Snowflake, AZ. The city of Snowflake wasgracious in letting a team named after their city reside in Show Low as the city of Snowflake is too smallto hold a team. The Owners created the new crest and uniforms in hope that it would become the class of the league. The color choice was made in thoughtthat Navy and White would signify the simplicity of the organization, and also represent a fresh start after the previous was brand was shot down.The inclusion of the sky blue was added only to the crest for fear that it would muddle up a great look on the uniforms.

TheGiantsFan Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Snowflake looks really nice and classy there!Rocky Top, meanwhile, is something quite in need of a facelift. As many have commented, you should darken the shade of purple you used. Also, you should give the mountain a new rendering, as it's way too jagged and uneven as it is. The rust color is a nice touch, though. BEHANCE | PORTFOLIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGiantsFan Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Ah, I gotcha. I looked at that concept before you changed your title, so I didn't quite catch that. Nice story to involve all that! BEHANCE | PORTFOLIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suplauren Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I think the Snowflake revamp is a good choice. I think the snowflakes on the crest itself, though, are too small. Even at the scale on the image you've provided, they lose all detail. Maybe the SFC monogram should just be on a snowflake shaped crest. laurenlogos.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H11K Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Paradise Valley FC:Welcoming the 6th team to the APL we have Paradise valley FC, located in the suburb of Mesa just outsideof the city of Phoenix. Brought into existence by James Kirk, the owner of Shamrock Farms. Kirkwanted to own a team in the league that could provide fans with not only great soccer, but a stadiumin which they can go to a game and relax on a great Saturday afternoon. He chose the colors of Sunshine Peach, Aqua (as he's from Miami) and a Paradise Purple to compliment the other two. The primary kit is a simple design with two bars across the chest that mimmic the teams stadium roof, The Clash kit, features 5 stripes down the chest, representig the 5 suburbs that make up the southeastern Phoenix area, and the Aqua stripe represents the suburb of mesa. The new club is immediately thrown into a fierce rivalry with cross town neighbor Sun Valley FC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCraeWilliamsProductions Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Crests need a lot of work, for most of them. A lot of them seem very similar and some of the "pale" colors chosen don't work together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
