McDonuts: Lakers Portraits Released

[Andrew]

Looking good, keep up the fine work.

[mcdonuts]

I've made a few new ones:




Please note, the pictures of Chris Duhon, Andrew Bynum and Andre Iguodala are not original. I've used the ones from ESPN, where they are in uniforms of their new teams, but you can see they were made by copy-pasting the uniforms in photoshop. I'm sorry the portraits are not in high quality, but this is due to lack of quality pictures. Dwight's picture is original with the real LA jersey on him, but it's a bit too shady and can make some of you unhappy. We'll have to wait for the media day before the season gets underway in order to make higher quality portraits.

[Andrew]

Agreed, they look fine to me.

[mcdonuts]

[Andrew]

Good stuff, looking forward to the next release.

[JBoom_LALALAND]

can u update the rosters?

[Andrew]

Are you talking to me? If so, I've addressed that question in my thread. If you're addressing that question to mcdonuts, well, I'll let him answer for himself.

[mcdonuts]

If you're asking me, I have to say I always update the rosters for myself but if anyone wants them, I'll be glad to release them. As for the release, I will upload these portraits during the day, but I'd like to hear S_Brat's opinion on Joel Freeland. I don't think he's that good. Thanks for the support.

[mcdonuts]

OK, the portraits have been uploaded, here's the link:

Please note, you have to make sure the PLAYERPKG in your rosters file matches the one that I'm using in order for the portraits to appear. For instance, Brandon Knight's PLAYERPKG is 'braknig' instead of 'brknigh'.

hey man i was gone to canada... didnt have time over there to use the net.... just got back to the u.s.a..... nice try but here is a better pic of him.... try using travis diener headshape or maybe linas kleiza.... also here is a better picture.... GOOD LUCK!!!!

[mcdonuts]

OK, what about now, is it better? I've used the second picture and kleiza's ebo.

[S_Brat]

definitely looks much more like him!!!! but what resolution are you working with?... try using 512... that way you keep much of the detail... cuz the texture looks very smudged....

[Dc311]

And turn off the lighting.

[Healer2k]

that's good
turn off the lighting bro

[mcdonuts]

The lighting is off now:

Yeah, the texture looks smudged but that isn't because of the resolution... I've used smudge tool on his beard and eyes... I knew I shouldn't have done that

I'll try to fix the texture during the day.

[mcdonuts]

[Dc311]

Much better.I use the smudge tool as well.I can't seem to figure out the correct way to edit facial hair with Gimp.

[S_Brat]

i really like version tow.... seeing good progress with you!!! keep at it!!!
