Aharvey's Custom TTM Designs

[Aharvey]

I've been making customs for a couple weeks now. I figured I'd start this thread to show off some of my work, but more importantly, get some constructive critcism and opinions. Let me know what you think and how I can improve. Thanks for looking!

In regard to requests: In general, I am not taking requests for custom cards for use TTM. I may however consider some requests for a 50/50 or similar situation in which I receive a copy back autographed. PM with details.

My newest and favorite. Currently working on more of this design:


Newer design. Only made this one:


My UGA Custom (I'm a big Bulldog fan). Plan to send customs in this format to UGA alumni:


Rays design. Pretty simple:


Hometown Heroes custom. Featuring players hometown:


And my very first design. Simple w/ team color star background (this one back signed):


I have a couple more in the works and some not shown. I'll post more pics as I produce more customs.

Thanks for looking,
Alex

The ticket design and the one on the Cosby card look really nice. The hometown heroes one is a good idea but I think that it would be easier to see the sig if you made the backround white.

Thanks! I tried different background colors thinking about that, but so far eveyone had signed on the state which was what I was hoping and I think it looks pretty good. I may have to try that though on smaller states where it would be difficult to get a sig on the state.

Real good stuff man. Nothing overly-complex but definitely enough nice effects and complimentary text to create a really interesting, unique design. The ticket is awesome, and the last one with the stars is just sick!

I love the ticket design the most. I'm still kicking myself for not coming up with that one on my own!

The Cosby card is really cool, too. I'm not sure you need the signature box with a card that light. The rays over the white background seem like they'd hold a signature really well.

For the Moyer and Allen cards, it looks like your white gradient may extend too far up the card. The player images look faded. Seems like the Moyer could use a bit more pop somehow. I think reducing the gradient would make it stand out more.

Nice job with your customs! Keep up the good work and keep posting the designs!

I really like the one of the ticket, nice work.

[Aharvey]

Thanks for the comments everyone.

RockiesFan33 thanks for the tips! I will try to fix the gradient on the UGA ones. I don't think I'm going to make any more of the rays design, Moyer design, or stars design but I will keep you suggestions in mind. I appreciate it!

Here is my HOF version of the ticket design. Let me know what you think and how I can improve it. It's my first one so its not too late to change it.

I went with the vertical layout this time. Also left extra white space on the bottom because my print tend to be cut of slightly at the bottom. Added the 'HOF' info field on the stub as well with their induction year below.

Cool Kaline. How would it look horizontally oriented, though? I think that Sonny looks so great, in part, because of the horizontal layout.

Hey guys I have been trying to figure out how to use this gradient tool but no luck yet could either of you explain how to do this in more detail. Thanks!!
