Competition Gaelic-Australian Rules National Trophy ENTRIES DUE DECEMBER 1st

[El_Scorcho]

I just went to look at my template after posted your original comment and felt as though they might have been a bit long in terms of how far they come down the leg, rather than inseam.

That might be the case, but you assume that the crotch of the shorts would come up to the groin, so they still read as footy shorts. Your template is on the slender and elongated side anyway, so it doesn't look out of place the way it is. It's internally consistent.

Is that for the over 35s?

Today probably, years ago that was one of the top templates on this board. How far we have come.

 

[El_Scorcho]

An oldie, but was widely used.

Yeah fair enough, i'd say they're about the same or slightly longer than the YI rugby shorts.

However, they don't immediately look as bad because it's a flat template.

Back then, good. Now, really bad.

Dude, i'm not sure how much clearer I can make this. If you're using a realistic template, proportion problems will stand out more. Back then nobody was pretending that the templates we were using were realistic.

If a 3 year old draws a picture of a car in crayon, it's going to be out of proportion but nobody is going to care because it's going to read as a car in the medium it's drawn in according to the skill of the artist. If a talented artist draws a hyperrealistic version of the same car in the same proportions that the 3yo did, it's going to look really off.

Hey, all I said was that the template back then looked good to us and now it doesn’t. That was it. No comparisons. Just a statement on how it looked then and now.

Also Spanna_ if you've had some luck shortening your shorts that'd be great.

I’d be happy to take on Canberra or Perth if a spot opens up. (Preferably Canberra)

Bryce and BW are traditionally pretty reliable but you'll get the spot if one of them drops out.

 

[Bryce_Jersey17]

Sorry guys. Due to Christmas, work has been massively hectic so more and more shifts get shoved on me. I’ll have my Canberra entry in tonight (Canberra Jets btw) or ASAP!

 

[Barrybran]

That sucks from a designing perspective but yay, money!

Thanks mate, all good.

 

[Spanna_]

Shit. Give me an hour and they'll be done.

If anyone from the future happens to be reading this and needs a template for a Gaelic football jersey or even just a rugby jersey, I just got the base of it on this website: https://www.akumarugby.com/kit-designer

 

[El_Scorcho]

Silvacomet has taken Bryce's spot in Canberra, I'll give him a couple of days to get his entry in and we'll be good to start.

 

[El_Scorcho]

 

[El_Scorcho]

Just waiting on a couple of last minute entries as Silvacomet has replaced Bryce, and we should have this kicked off tomorrow or Monday

 

[SilvaComet]

Kit will be submitted within the next 15 minutes, had to use paint. Don't expect anything overly special.
