Hi . I think you already know me so I won't waste my time to introduce me again .

I abandoned the FIFA 08 EDITING Forum and my captain armbands and adboards thread for a little while , to make some kits . Here is the first :

adidas PREDATOR Power Swerve white/black/red



So ...what're you think ? :D

gotta work on that aby, looks like paint

That's because when I made the original kit I made the background gold cause I made the shorts black , but when I put the kit on the template and I multiply the background became black with some gold . Anyway , that gold dose not appear in the game . I can make some screenshots for you if you want .

EDIT : I ask the mods if they can please change the name of my thread from "FIFA 08 kits by abyPREDATOR" to FIFA 08 Kits by abyPREDATOR ...writing mistake when I made the thread ...

It's really rough, pal... I'd suggest you read the various kit tutorials and practise some more.

Well ...I see that you don't really like the kit and you said it's not so good but you didn't said what it's not good so I don't know what should I update ...

I made some in game screenshots and maybe they will help you to tell me what is wrong :D

Man....

I don't know how to say this in a polite way, but if you can't see what's wrong with the kit, you need to get your eyes checked.

You have a long way to go in kit making. I've made much better ones but never posted them because they don't compare to the quality of 99% of the kits being created here.

Let's put it this way, just because you can throw paint at a canvas, doesn't mean your are an artist...unfortunatelly, many do that and believe themselves to be the next Picasso...or in this case, the next Interista.

instead of saying i looks terrible you could tell him how to make a black short on which you can see the shade of the template. that would help him to improve step by step.

sry that i cant help you.

To make the shorts shading black there are two ways. First one is veeery simple just use a very dark grey instead of black. Other one is using a shine but I wont bother you with it. This isn't a very good kit to see what you are upto maybe you can make a 'normal' kit with everyting on it etc. and then I can maybe help you with become better and better. ;) Good luck.

Hey dude , since I remember I asked just for other kit-makers to tell me what is wrong and how I could improve . If you wouldn't be so brainless , you would see that this is my first damn kit and it couldn't be perfect .

I'm glad for you that you make better kits , but saying this to me it won't help me to much to improve so stop being a smart ass and be useful if you want and if you don't , that's not my problem just don't do it in my thread ...

If you want to know what's wrong, fine, I'll tell you - for starters your attitude.

Also, when you create patterns and colours on your kit, do it in a separte layer and set it to "multiply". That will blend in everything on that second layer properlly with your base layer. This will make your kit look like it bellongs together instead of something just drawn on top.

Happy????

yeah mate that is a good starting platform to you... a lot of people on this forum already know you and know that your attitude is quite poor. i think this is maybe why there hasnt been too many replies with constructive criticism to help you get better

Come on guys, thats not how things are done at SG! The guy asked for help and feedback and you should give it to him rather than talk about his attitude.

Aby: For you designs, I think you should see how other kitmakers manage to manipulate designs which are, in fact, supposed to be straight - Look at how Sunsdvall draws the stripes for his adidas shorts by giving them a non linear look, you make you designs blend well and look more realistic and make the texture more realistic.

Try to scale your work. The adidas stripes on your first kit are too thin and need to be in proportion - so the ones on the shirt should be way thicker than the one on the socks.

Decrease the lenth of the adidas logo so it seems to be in proportion to the width and use the oblong tool for the collar - makes it neater

Extend the adidas shirts stripes to the middle of the sleeve rather than on the edge of the shoulders and move the small adidas 'official poduct' logo (on the bottom left of the shirt) leftwards so it appears on the side rather than near the middle. Do the opposite for the logo on the shorts - bring it in towards the centre

musama91 : Thanks a lot man . That's what I wanned to hear . I really own you for those timps .

suraj : My kit it's a fantasy :D

tt-7 : Because I'm not good enough make it . Anyway , somebody made some real AMAIZING kits for the PREDATOR team for my patch and I think I'm going to use those . But If any good kit-maker could make the one you post and the one I requested a lot of times but nobody made it , well I'll use it as the home kit and I'l use the black kit in the patch thread as an away .
