thank u very much. its GREAT! if ur having 2 much trouble with the Porto 1...then it alright forget it. dont wanna drag u
Hey Avs your doing a great job. And the Portugal related walls are very appreciative. Especially the Bruno one. But I noticed in all your walls, you utilize a common theme. It has to do with the background, either you have a circular dotted white lined background that pokes out, or in the Bruno Alves one it was checkered.
It's a circular half-tone effect, it's been giving me good results, so I'm not quick to stray from it, it helps give the images of the players a subtle unreal tone.

Also, I can confirm that I quit the Bruno Alves Porto verson... too hard! I might do another Sporting one, and possibly even a Mourinho one unless I get more requests on here or from friends.

Also, if any of you guys are interested, some of my artwork is available on deviantart for purchase. It's relatively inexpensive, and obviously I'd appreciate any possible patronage. You can check out my portfolio at http://hugo-45-viana.deviantart.com...rt&utm_medium=userpage&utm_campaign=printstab. You can buy posters, calenders, mugs, coasters, mousepads, puzzles and more. If you have a request for me to make something specifically for an item i will be more than happy to oblige, I will also do what I can to make any current artwork available for purchase in a desired item. Boy oh boy did this take a long time. Ultimately I don't even care that some of the legs on the fans are messed up, I still think it looks good. The bar was a stock photo... Added in are Eusebio, his glass of Sagres, the SuperBock decoration hanging on the left wall, the Portugal flag, the image on the TV screen and the supporters to the right of Eusebio... http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/036/1/f/Portugal_Win_by_hugo_45_viana.png

Nearly finished, I'm doing it in the same style as I did the Mourinho/Ronaldo one... all I'm missing is a picture of Nani in leisurewear/business suit... if you can provide one that'd be great, preferrably with his feet showing, though I can transpose him onto another body as long as you've got at least his arms for the sake of the skin tone.
There is one of Nani somewhere in a suit with his girlfriend. They are overlooking Barriero. Its actually a pretty G'ed out picture.
Here are the first three initial versions I got... the wall came out good but I'm not at all happy with how Nani came out, I messed around with his arms to get a more natural position to go with the legs that I transposed on him. Still... not happy. But I'm saving the PSD so that I can edit in a better picture once it's found. http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/2002/nani3.png http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/373/nani2.png http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/2002/nani3.png
And then without the arm-nightmare; lemme know if you want one with the bench to cover up the weird spots that I left on nani's neck... http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/8315/nani4.png http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/919/nani5.png
It's a great picture, but it's unusable unless I can airbrush the missing components that would be left out once I cut her out of the picture, and with her in the picture, it looks like an obvious photo-op making it not ideal for the purposes called for here, I just came across a good picture of him in a baseball cap and casual clothes and I'm going to use that one. Or this next one, which is an easy edit job to cover up the Ronaldo portion...
That picture with his girlfriend is really a good one. Their attire is perfect, the weather, the setting and background. You should use that picture Avs, it would make Nani look like a pimp with a hottie around his neck.
