The Facegen Thread

Can someone make a facegen for this handsome devil?

This is a illustration of Cap Anson.

Here is a more straightforward photo of him with the mustache

Cap Anson, baseball’s first superstar, was the dominant on-field figure of nineteenth-century baseball. He was a small-town boy from Iowa who earned his fame as the playing manager of the fabled Chicago White Stockings, the National League team now known as the Cubs. A larger-than-life figure of great talents and great faults, Anson managed the White Stockings to five pennants and set all the batting records that men such as Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth later broke. Anson was the second manager (after Harry Wright) to win 1,000 games and the first player to stroke 3,000 hits (though his exact total varies from one source to another). Although he retired from active play in 1897, he is still the all-time leader in hits, runs scored, doubles, and runs batted in for the Chicago franchise.

Regrettably, Anson used his stature to drive minority players from the game. An 1883 exhibition game in Toledo, Ohio, between the local team and the White Stockings nearly ended before it began when Anson angrily refused to take the field against Toledo’s African-American catcher, Moses Fleetwood Walker. Faced with the loss of gate receipts, Anson relented after a loud protest, but his bellicose attitude made Anson, wittingly or not, the acknowledged leader of the segregation forces already at work in the game. Other players and managers followed Anson’s lead, and similar incidents occurred with regularity for the rest of the decade. In 1887, Anson made headlines again when he refused to play an exhibition in Newark unless the local club removed its African-American battery, catcher Walker and pitcher George Stovey, from the field. Teams and leagues began to bar minorities from participation, and by the early 1890s, no black players remained in the professional ranks. - SABR

For a 19th century facegen, the one in the CU Facepack is pretty good, if a little wide and orange. The one on the right is is one I just made in case you were looking for a revised one.

I saw his request yesterday and i tried to make it but i didn't like it/ i just imported Anson into a new dynasty and saw he already had a nice stashe.

Thank you LansdowneSt and The Game. The one you made Landownest looks good.


I started using the face gen software and have been playing around with it. One of the ones I made was former Chicago Bears coach and hall of famer Iron Mike Ditka. I attached it here.

Forgot to include the Mike Ditka face gen photo, here it is.

I got one more request. Harry Caray. I've tried but haven't had much luck.

Thanks

Pete Crow-Armstrong, the Mets’ first-round pick in the 2020 MLB Draft on Wednesday night, is from a family that is no stranger to the big stage.

Both of Crow-Armstrong’s parents are actors, with his mom playing a role in a well-known baseball movie. His mom, Ashley Crow, played Billy Heywood’s mom Jenny in “Little Big League,” which came out in 1994 – eight years before Pete was born in 2002. Heywood improbably became the owner of the Twins as a 12-year-old when his grandfather died. - NY Post

I made it off the 2019 Mets photo so, no offense to the Cub fans, but he's wearing a Mets hat in the screenshot...

Thanks. Harry was a one-off request so is just here in this thread but the MLB players and some of the minor league ones I've done are in the zip file I added to my signature block. I'll have a new upload of it in two and half weeks when OOTP24 drops where I'll add a couple hundred more.

There are still quite a few early historical players with "zombie" Facegens. Could we see new versions for Bert Hall and Norm Glockson? These source images are not ideal for creating good Facegens, but virtually anything would be an improvement over the current versions.

Bert Hall is shown in the first image, and Norm Glockson in the second.

Anyone have this facegen of Jackie?
