raysox Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 I thought of that, but the shoulder yokes are based on the Scottish flag, and it just didn't have the same effect in navy or light blue so I dropped it.

maxwasson Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Nice job on the London Lightning! Are we gonna get a second London team in this series, maybe a team in Northern Ireland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 No Belfast, but them and Southampton are who i'm thinking about if I ever do expansion. 1 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomba Tomba Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Lmao I just KNEW this team was gonna get called the London Lightning, although I didn't expect the gold Have you considered a lightning stripe down the pants, or is it too corny?

raysox Posted October 24, 2023 Author Share Posted October 24, 2023 Hah, yeah I thought it was too close to the LA chargers, but it's something I tried. I tried a duel blue color scheme and a deep purple/volt version before going with Purple and Gold. It felt a little more rgal and better for London.

raysox Posted October 25, 2023 Author Share Posted October 25, 2023 Hull Norsemen This one was a fun one, because it was a bit of a challenge. How to create a strong football logo, that doesn't directly rip from an existing football team? The vikings raiders and traders went to current day England in the 800s, settling in the east and midlands. I thought this was fitting for a team in Hull. The colors are a tie to the Hull City colors of amber and black. The logo is a bearded viking, wearing a horned football helmet. The shadow of the helmet casts over his face to feel mysterious and imposing. The font is something I found on a font website that lended itself to about 80% of the fonts used in this project. The uniforms use the amber on the helmet and pants, but I went with a menacing black top with a simple sleeve design. The original logo I created, a horned H on a shield, finds itself on the sleeve and pants, which is a good reminder to push your designs. This design started a stretch of some of my best work as a designer, period. I hope you all check in over the next week to see what i've made! 8 1 3 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 Greater Manchester Inferno One thing in the back of my head I wanted to do was have a shield logo kicking around. Not that I planned for it to be for Greater Manchester, but I think it works. Wait, what about that name huh? Well, it's the name of the county that Manchester is in obviously. I chose that because the stadium I penciled them in to play in is in Bolton and I was unsure how cool it would be to use it for a large suburb. The crest features a GM monogram with flames at the bottom to fill the negative space. THe uniforms are a bit Jacksonville Jaguars with cues from the Kansas City Chiefs. I didn't want to have much black at all, so I used sparingly. I also made their helmet matte to stand out from the other teams. 7 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crest features a GM monogram with flames at the bottom to fill the negative space. The Toughsheet Community Stadium isn't in the town of Bolton, rather the Metropolitan borough - it's on the outskirts of a town called Horwich and is 5 miles from the actual town of Bolton itself. Many people consider what is Greater Manchester to still be either Lancashire or Cheshire depending on what county it was previously part of, and nobody considers Bolton to be a suburb of Manchester - it is its own town, like most of the towns in what is called Greater Manchester. The Toughsheet is far from being a well located Stadium, the City of Manchester Stadium or Old Trafford (as run down as that place is) would be better bets. So I would change the name to Manchester Inferno and have the team play at the City of Manchester Stadium, which is a bigger venue and much easier to get to than the stadium in Horwich. I'd also just use the name Manchester Inferno, as it's almost certainly what everyone would call the team anyway. You could even keep the GM in the logo (which looks great) and have it stand for "Gridiron Manchester". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomba Tomba Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I'd put a spike on the top end of the G and the bottom ends of the M, referencing a devil's tail and fork Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 appreciate the feedback, this one I made assumptions for. I didn't really think Old Trafford would be rolled out to host a team since Man United would be protective of the field. BUt then again, the Glazers are their owners. I'll take a look at some changes later this week! Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share Posted October 30, 2023 @timberwolf DM me ^^ Brighton Waves This team was a layup name that I figured I could brand, but really felt the name was bland. I was open to changing it up until I really started working. Originally, I had planned an Orlando Magic color scheme, including black into blue and silver. It felt very muddled down and you can tell from my tone in the tweet that I knew there was something but I couldn't figure out what. Turns out, some inspiration came from watching my Bucs get torn apart by the Detroit Lions. I dropped the black for a cleaner look. I hand drew a wave to fill the bottom half of the B. I also put a W in the foam of the wave, just so you can remember the team name! The uniforms are Lions inspired as well, but also mimic the New Orleans breakers helmets since they're so cool. This is my girlfriend's favorite helmet, so you better all like it! I didn't overthink the striping, just use white and silver where I could. 7 2 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in worse shape than Bolton at the moment though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 That's a dope helmet. Also love the number font. Unique and fits well. I'm not able to send you a DM on here. I can do it via Twitter/IG if you'd prefer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 Leicester Wolfpack Crossing another team off the generic team name list. Leicester City is the foxes, and nearby Wolverhampton is the Wolves. I wanted to use the Wolfpack name, but make them super different from the others. I went with a Washington State inspired color palate. The logo is a fierce modern wolf that has a second wolf in the negative space, inspired by Hofstra's double Lion logo. The pupil on the eye of the logo has cinquefoil to reference back to Leicestershire County. The uniforms have basic sleeve stripes and two spikes on the chest for a modern look, paired with some sharp angles on the pants to the same striping. 5 1 Quote @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
