Just Atlanta, Detroit and Tulsa left if I am tallying these up correctly. So, 1 more day of designs to go. If the original list of 26 markets was accurate, Atlanta, Detroit, St. Louis, and Tulsa remain to be revealed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I don't have the 2d PES formats to share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 OK, here we go. Brian in Boston was right, I have 4 teams left, so 2 today and 2 tomorrow. TULSA ROUGHNECKS Sponsor: Sonic Colors: Bright red, black. There was not a lot about the original Roughnecks identity that works as a modern logo/crest. So, we take the derrick, add a large oil drop, build it on a shield, and we have something that makes sense in today's world. The split between the 2 halves of the team name is not ideal, but I wanted some text included. For the home kit I started off with an Arsenal-style sleeve treatment, but decided to go with more of a yoke style to add more black. For the away kit, I went white again. I realize I have done that a lot, but there is such a history of US-based sports teams using white as the alternative to their colored jersey, that it just seems appropriate in many cases to do the same in soccer.

WideRight Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 ATLANTA FC Sponsor: Coca-Cola Colors: Red, white, yellow Is it me or did the NASL have just a ton of red-based teams. Anyway, it seems unlikely that the "Chiefs" name would be retained over the decades, so it is an unofficial nickname for AFC. The logo is designed to look like a lot of the German Bundesliga crests, which like to use odd shapes and lettering. Pretty basic, but not all soccer logos are complex crests. I tried a half-half design for AFC, but decided to go quadrants instead, just to have one team in the league that uses a quadrant/quarter theme. Went a totally different direction for the aways. This is all about the peaches. Green & Orange to evoke Georgia's big state fruit. It takes what ATL United did with peach orange and bumps it up a few notches.

WideRight Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 OK, the last 2 franchises and 2 where I felt that there was almost nothing in the original/actual NASL designs worth keeping. Both were pretty bad. DETROIT EXPRESS SC Sponsor: GM Colors: Honolulu Blue and Navy Decided to go with more of a Lions vibe with the team. The logo is pretty basic (It seems like as I have gotten closer to the end I have favored very simple, monogram, logos). And I finally get my half & half jersey into the league. I added a bit of Nike vapor on the sleeves and yoke to add something to the halves. The navy is barely used at all. On the clash kit, I decided to again go with a Lions callback and use tones of silver/grey as the alternate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 And the final team... ST. LOUIS STARS Sponsor: Budweiser (Anheiser-Busch) Colors: Blue & white Another monogram logo in the Bundesliga or Eriedivisie style. I tried a few with the Gateway Arch and just got sick of the arch, so no arch with this STL team. Decided to go very classic with the kit, blue & white stripes. We don't have that many striped teams, and this helps distinguish STL from other blue-focused teams. For the clash, Budweiser pushed for a red alternate, so the Stars gave them what they wanted. A little bit of an Arsenal vibe on this one. And there you have it. 26 NASL teams taken from the 1970's to the 2020's. Hope you enjoyed it.

BigRed618 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Love what you did with the Stars. I do hope the MLS team we get can wear stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastianm Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Sad to see this one come to an end, why not the ABA next? By the way, each set looks spectacular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
