I did an RVP head but he left before i did a body so thats on the 'to do' list.

I will be doing legends eventually.

Photoshop. Using the players head and body. Obviously not from the same picture. Shading is pretty simple. face is one shade with one lighter shade and two darker. I try not to use too many shades. I try to keep the kit simple so its easy to change colours. It still takes a long time though!

Those are really good mate, most of those are bang on. I would say santos needs to be a bit lighter skinned and theos facial hair hasn't come in on that level yet lol. Gervinho, Jenks, wilshire etc are bang on!

Well done!

Thanks :)

They do take a while. The body will take a whole evening. The heads are quicker to do. By keeping shading simple kit changes are quite quick to do (apart from hoops and stripes!)

Santos skin tones are exactly the same as Walcott, Ox & Coquelin. Gibbs is lighter then obviously theres black and white. Thats only 4 different skin tones i do. I would probably use Gibbs' skin tone for a Chamakh.

Ive done (and still doing) quite a few retro 'big heads' since i posted this thread. I've decided a facebook page would better showcase my work....
