Actually Dreamteams made the chest protector. I got it from his fictional league site.

I thought I recognized it from his old "ficman" series. The original Fictional face.... Dreamteams does a good job.

Updated using new hats...a variety of them, so I can choose the right ones for the right direction. :P

Here are some:

MidKnight. Would you mind posting your templates. Just the jerseys and hats without the background or faces?

MidKnight · 05-21-2004, 03:37 PM

Sure thing; I uploaded them here, which hopefully will work. They're all in .psd format as to keep the layers intact.

thanks, much appreciated. Here is my first effort with your jersey template. Pitcher Glenn Coto of my Phoenix Roadrunners club in the Western Alliance.

I too wish I had his skills but I found a nice work around for the lettering. I have been searching for real minor league jerseys and occassionally find one that will work as a perfect template for my photos.

Here is an example of a real San Francisco Seals jersey that I used as the template and another old time jersey that I altered slightly to be the jersey worn by my Class St George Utes minor league club.

Not perfect by any means but I find the more I do the better I get at it.

MidKnight, thanks for the templates. They work great.

Tigerfan, very good idea. I will do some searches for some of my teams today. I've been doing the same with facial hair and sunglasses. They don't look very natural all the time. Like you said, the more you do the better you get.

I found this chest protector on google and tried adding it as a layer to one of my guys. Not the best job, but it is very easy to change the colors to match the team. I need to work on my blending skills.

I am stoked to get a good set of these.
You guys are doing some amazing work!

MidKnight -

Is this still in the works? I love the examples you have shown and can't wait to get my hands on a full set.
