Tried my hand at this. I didn't put in any other people's body parts.. it's all recoloring (lots of adjustment layers, greyscaling, and adding color fills in blending options and giving it certain properties). The only thing that I added was the fleur de lis on the shoulder pad.

Any resident experts please feel free to critique and give advice

Looks great! Helmet color is a little off, but I have trouble with that too. Good work on the perspective around the numbers and the Fleur dis lis

Only thing I could add is that lowering the opacity on the pants might help some.

I made this of McElroy on Saturday.

Changing it to white was my most difficult part. That and the jets jersey.

I was checking out Ingram's twitter when I saw this:


Someone did a really good job.

If you consider changing a name and jersey # a good job.

I'm having a rough time changing Gump numbers to the outlined kind cleanly... About to change tactics.

They also put Julio's face in, pretty hard to tell that it wasn't really him there.

That's a pretty quality piece of work there.

My only piece of advice would be to layer the player from the background so you can use "selective color" to adjust 1)The Saints' gold uniform bits and 2)The burnt orange in the end zone into green again... The Longhorn doo-doo color is like nothing in the NFL.


FWIW - If somebody's in the mood to do the jersey on this one (pants, helmet and Ingram's fave facemask already done)...



...I'd consider it a favor. I'm about with this project at the moment.

Pretty hard to figure out why they're both on the field at the same time.

I'm just not a fan of using such a cop-out method of putting Ingram in B&G, that's all...

Sorry so grumpy.

Awesome!! I was already going cross-eyed after putting the correct facemask on the Saints helmet... I knew if I kept going - my OCD would compel me to scrap the image and I didn't want to toss a good start!

BTW - Nice catch on the NCAA -->NFL ball!

Just saw that on the Saints board (I always go to Fark Board first).
