Flags Newbie

[Khris Watkins]

Hi all,

Im not really new to FIFA - but Im new to editing graphic's - dont really think I have the talent for it!!! But I decided to give it a shot - just to see what I can come up with. I will mostly focus on the MLS - since no one else does (plus Im a damn yank)...

So, here are my very first virgin attempts at FC Dallas flags.... I would appreciate any comments on how to make the flags better - but will not be taking any requests at this time...Thanks...

One thing - how do you best keep the flag templated design mixed with the color scheme?

Not bad for a start, but these are flags, not adboards .

I know that they are flags...I only started with three until I can make improvements on them - then i will do a whole pack...FOKA is helping he with the adboards - which a another work in progress...

Ive read a lot of things on the forums, but I need to know how to correct the mistakes - then I can get better...So any comments on how crappy they are would really help!!!

they look quite fine

try to make them as real as possible, or copy them from an actual flag

Thanks SlowHand - but i want to know how to make them look real...

The second flag is an actual picture of the Texas flag...

How do I make the template graphics come through the colors without losing the color?
