TAMPA BAY VIPERS Arena Football will always have a home for a team that has now been rejected twice by two cities now... this is the price of being cheap in the Rock's 'UFL'. Meanwhile everyone else's reaction... Why two Tampa teams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Arena Football there's not much budget thus the affordability of having more than one team in a city and I am not putting them in Miami.... if this team was in Miami we would of had a Miami Vice decal but since that costs MONEY they're staying in Tampa.

heavybass Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 And now for another Tampa team. TAMPA BAY STORM The Storm has a great logo and a clean uniform set and that is what I decided to do.... sometimes it's not about the bad and ugly stuff, sometimes its about preserving a team that lasted since 1993.

Bomba Tomba Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 You could prolly lean into the "Miami Vipers" branding and use Miami Vice colors because Vice and Vipers both start with "VI".... wait, like GTA VI!

heavybass Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 HOWEVER... I would like to announce that the Wildcats are not going to be a part of this league, instead two sides will merge into one to take their place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 "looks at his watch" Oh look it's time to... TENNESSEE RAGE It be criminal not to waste the Rage, it be absolute criminal to not use the Orlando Rage here however it wasn't enough to use on it's own so I merged this team with the Memphis Maniax and moved that combo all the way to Nashville where Navy, Gold and now Teal dominate the city and become the Rage that the state of Tennessee needs to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, I figured I would have to merge a couple of teams at some point.... the Maniax didn't have a good logo set but had a good teal and the Rage had navy and gold which is Nashville colours so put two and two together and boom Rage of a different city.

heavybass Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 Next team up is a 90's team with personality, colour and a prime location.... most people tend to be like Indiana? But the logo will tell you HAHAHA NO... ALBANY FIREBIRDS That logo, that face.... I was originally going to borrow @WideRight's logo for the Firebirds but then that face told me it had character, it had branding and it was better off on a white helmet so I merged the two eras of the kit... the original kit set with the updated logo before their move to Indiana. However Albany will always be their home and thus eligibility to the Eastern section with the Defenders and the Guardians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 Summary of Arena Football thread so far: EAST Tampa Bay Bandits Orlando Apollos New York Guardians DC Defenders Miami (Vi)pers Albany Firebirds NORTH Pittsburgh Maulers Michigan Panthers Birmingham Iron ((Don't argue with logic)) Chicago Enforcers Chicago Bruisers Detroit Drive Pittsburgh Gladiators SOUTH Memphis Showboats Arizona Hotshots Tennessee Rage Tampa Bay Storm WEST Denver Dynamite ----- As you can see, I've been upfront with East and North so far... and lacking on the South and West.

heavybass Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 Sometimes I'm a sucker for a good design... especially from a defunt team. DALLAS TEXANS Yes the Texans... a side from the early 90's that had some good logos, colors but hey it's better than Jerryworld's bastard son and his Desperados. If the design isn't good enough then not much you can do with a team that literally took a defunt NFL's colors and make them their own.

Bomba Tomba Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 That would be a solid look for the actual Texans if you replace the helmet logo with theirs, and then made the primary red Yes, I want the Houston Texans to have red as their primary to differentiate them with the other three RWB teams (Pats, Giants, Bills) who all have blue as their primary Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

heavybass Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 "looks at the West division" I am not satisfied with only the Denver Dynamite as its sole rep.... let's give them company! DENVER GOLD And now for the superior team of Denver... the much loved Denver Gold with it's main attribute of Chrome Gold alongside light gold, black and white.... the team has a superior logo which is maintained and worked mostly as a better looking Pittsburgh Steelers kit wise.... yes even better with black, black, white as opposed to the black and gold :censored:fest in Pittsburgh.

heavybass Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Speaking of Arena Football, there's one team in the XFL that would be taking advantage of it all. LAS VEGAS OUTLAWS The Outlaws of Las Vegas... hate them or not have the perfect Arena Identity.... located in the confines of the Golden Knights stadium, this side that employs vegas gold, strip red, outlaw black and white to set themselves up for perfect attendances in small levels. Wonder as I brought the prototype logo back and essentially updated the color design to match modern day Vegas standards... especially since the Vipers were essentially rounded up like boot snakes. Also the helmet is a reference to the former Arena Football Outlaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 Seems like this thread is like a serpent in the grass, ready to strike at a moment's notice... which is why I went with this today. CAROLINA COBRAS The Carolina Cobras here are a mix of current NAL Cobras and the original Carolina Cobras.... subsituting the gold for silver and emphasing the black and blood red as this is a team representing South Carolina.

heavybass Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 ..... This thread needs updating. ARIZONA WRANGLERS The Wranglers remain the more unique of all the USFL West Coast teams... that Copper is rich against the Red, Yellow and Blue as it compliments the state of Arizona.

heavybass Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 And the last team to officially take us halfway through this request topic. SAN DIEGO FLEET Ah... ANTHRACITE, a colour more depressing than Glasgow and dark enough to be classed as Concrete Cancer... considered poisonous by any other team that dons it, the only team that successfully utilises it is actually the San Diego Fleet of the ole AAF for they use it alongisde Grey and Yellow to make a very unique scheme alongside the chevrons which this tam is famed for. Here I make an off colour version to use as their road and use yellow pants as colour pants to alternate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 Time for a radical departure. ATLANTA LEGENDS Not a big fan of the Legends and their Purple... however Legends exchanging with the Apollos in terms of colours wasn't something I didn't expect so the Purple went to Orlando in exchange for the Navy but then I went further and revert the Navy to classic Royal Blue of the Rams fame.... and this is what I ended up. They may be Kings but the rest of us will call them the Royals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
