Click on one of the names to view. Basically tried to make the Facgen face look like it had been painted from his original face.. or some other way of design to make it look not like a photo on the plaque.

Nice work Shorty, especially on "Eddie Mac's" plaque. I like it. Looks like a plaque and not much like a photo at all.

Very nice.

JoshSamBob · 02-13-2004, 11:27 PM

I dig it. How'd you do it?

Sandstorm3 · 02-14-2004, 10:09 AM

Shorty,
I realy like the look, but I thought it shoud be gold, I hope you dont mind

Sandstorm3 · 02-14-2004, 10:27 AM

once again hope you dont mind, but I like the look with out the background on the player photo

JoshSamBob · 02-14-2004, 10:55 AM

Any help? Love to know how this was done in Photoshop... Template, maybe?

Shorty · 02-14-2004, 11:53 AM

Sandstorm that's a nice change you made. Cool!

JoshSamBob, I can send you my .psd by Monday, or so.

JoshSamBob · 02-14-2004, 11:56 AM

Thanks, Shorty!

By the way, love the Poopsmith avatar. Would love to find one of Trogdor.

Shorty, you have a great site.

HOF plaques are excellent. I, too, would prefer bronze.

Where did you get those great player photos?

Shorty · 02-14-2004, 05:54 PM

I make all of the JBL's player faces... Mostly just all the active players have faces, and I add a few a week and just continually keep filling rosters up with faces. They are all unique so none will ever repeat.

Swaggs and bsak16 have contributed to about 50 of them, too.

Cuss16 · 02-14-2004, 07:04 PM

I think it should be more copper looking, maybe tone down the gold and satuated it a bit.

kq76 · 02-14-2004, 10:20 PM

LOL, is that really what devaneyfan looks like?

Good stuff though, I really like the whole idea of a page devoted to them.

Shorty · 02-15-2004, 12:20 PM

dfan sent me a pic and i tried to replicate his goofy ass as best as i could!

I really like the idea of induction speeches. If possible, I would go back and make speeches for them....or get speeches in dfan's case

Shorty · 02-15-2004, 03:45 PM

That is what is being done.
