Hi everyone

Now that the Stunty Leeg portraits are done, I've got myself to thinking if there are any other art work related things that would benefit the BB community in general and this site in particular.

In my own mind there are two things I am considering at present.

1. I've always had a temptation to make some portraits that are based on puns of actual legendary players. For example Tomolandry, Brick Farth, Roze-El etc. I have a few in mind already and maybe I'll make some prototypes. These could manifest themselves in the GLN as a kind of pictorial.

2. Customisable portraits. Another thing I've been toying with would be a type of customisable player portrait for the fluffy pixel huggers amongst us. My vision would be like those in Speedball 2 (full face, panini soccer sticker style) The idea would be to have a pool of facial types that coaches could choose to attach to players to give them a little more character.

As I've said before a big issue is colorising. I have photoshop but don't have the specialist equipment or the time to realise them in colour to the standard I'd want. I can do rudimentary colour but the more technically complex ones would be very time consuming.

So this is an open call to the community for any ideas or any feedback on the viability of what I have suggested above.

So the criteria I am using for what I will proceed with is finding the ideas that have the most practical value to everyone here.

I look forward to hearing your ideas.

Thanks

No suggestions unfortunately.

I would like to know where I can find the Stunty League portraits though.

Thanks for your efforts.

Hi Sigmar1. No problem. Any feedback on whether more art work could prove useful is helpful, so if you do think of something feel free to share it with me.

The Stunty Portraits can be accessed on my blog (also linked on the FUMBBL Player Portraits thread)
