Ok, I have recently discovered a very effective way to make realistic kits for you FL teams, in this thread I will show you how in a step by step guide.

Ok for the tutorial I will use my home kit as an example....

First off you need to think fo what you want your kit to look like:

Design: *Striped
Colour: *Black and Blue
Make: *Adidas
Sponsor: *Budweiser
Logo: *Inter

Once you have made up your mind on that, you now need to find the images. For the best results use this one site: http://www.subsidesports.com/uk/store/index.jsp (If you don't then your kit won't turn out as good)

First off we look for a kit with the design and colours we want on it. It also helps alot if you can get it with the same make aswell, then it will fit in with what the design should look like, and cuts out alot of hard work. (Put it this way, if you added an Adidas logo to a Nike shirt it just wouldn't look correct) (please note, you may have to think here, remember there are lots of "smaller teams" that might suit your kit perfectly, e.g. I had to think for a while for a team that had a blue and black striped adidas kit, then I came up with Club Brugge's Home kit)

Ok for my kit I slected thsi to start with:
http://www.subsidesports.com/uk/images/product/large/ClubBruggeHSS0506.gif
From: http://www.subsidesports.com/uk/store/product_details.jsp?pid=720575 94037940287&cid=358&brc=&red=product_list.jsp?id=358

Right click on the image and paste it into a new 300 x 300 file in Photoshop.


---------------------------------------------------------------


You then need to cover up the old sponsor and logo (unless you want to keep one/both of them)

Either brush over them, or copy very similar bits of the shirt and put them over it:
(Coping looks the best, remeber when you are done you can touch up rough bits with a brush or the blending tool.)

Then just follow the above for the above for the sponsor. (if you want one)

You shdould end up with an end product like this:

The key is, to use all the pics off the site I posted, then you should get a decent result.

If anyone has any problems just post bellow. :)

The cloning tool is also very effective when trying to erase sponsors and logos. By just putting the cursor over a spot right above the area you want to cover then left clicking while pressing the ALT key and then cloning over. You can do some final touches after that using the air brush tool.

Good initiative there, Deki.

Nice work there Deki. ;)

Shame I:
1. Am crap at PhotoShop
2. Made kits myself before reading this, funnily enough I used that site though.

I'm in the same boat as the people without Photoshop.

:tongue:

Are there programs on the internet like it though?

Hey Deki, could you put up a guide to do formations? Like the previous one with the green background. We'll be switching at least one player between every game and we wouldn't want the formations to be all typed out for every game.

I'm interested in that.


Do you happen to know how Hunter and Kallum did theirs? As those are brilliant.

Hunter probably did one for himself and another for Hunter. Those were classy, it makes the background looks like a real field :cool:

Good work Deki :)

Deki made this thread some days ago. http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?t=30748

I offered to make formations once but posted it in the 'Fantasy League Talk' thread insted of making a new one. Offer still stands. Just send me your players profile photos, numbers, etc..I think you can go to Adobe and download a free trial version.

Oh yeah I missed that one, I thought this thread was the same thread as that so I was surprised when I saw that the second post was Deki's instead of HP's :D

I don't know whether making the formations for others would be good, 'cos we'll usually have only three days in between matches to get our line-ups ready. It'll be quite rushy if we take one day to consider and PM it, and the next day the formation presentation is sent to us.

You could use the trial version or we could all try and look around for similar freeware/shareware.
