el badman's tattoo thread - Maxiell & H.Armstrong rlsd

Okay, no preview to show yet but just an announcement to mention some upcoming tattoo patches I will be working on, as soon as I find the perfect pictures and get more familiarized with 2K's .iff files.
I was checking what's already in the game, what's not, what needs improvement, etc., and my first patches will be for some players who do not have any tats by default, like:

- Chris Wilcox
- Lorenzen Wright
- Dahntay Jones
- Jason Maxiell
- Hilton Armstrong
- Solomon Jones
...

I also saw that M. Daniels, Aldridge, R. Bell, Speights, R. Butler, Ariza or Joe Smith need some serious touchups.
Alzaga and other patchers already did quite a few, so that narrows it down.

Early big thanks to Showfom for his great tool, and Alzaga for his encouragements.

Congrats!!!

Thanks and God Bless

wow~cool

That's great news!

A quick question, are the CFs and tats files separate like in Live or are they combined into a single file?
It would be awesome if I would be able to combine your tats with some of the CFs I already have.

How have you been all these days?
wellcome back wait for a long time

:bowdown: the legend is back!!!

me too
el, i'll be waiting your patches

A quick question, are the CFs and tats files separate like in Live or are they combined into a single file?

It's actually one file that has several sub-files if you will, one for the face, one for the alpha, one for the arms/hands,... I think it's pretty convenient actually.

Thanks for the comments guys, hopefully I won't let you down.
I should be able to have Wilcox ready later on tonite, and I'll start working on Dahntay Jones and Delonte West the next couple of days.

I'll wait for your tats

Great news! Yours works are always amazing! Can't wait too see what you can do for 2k9!

Hey Spaky, long time no "see"!

Before I get to it, please do not take my releasing-right-away-without-showing-any-preview-first for arrogance or anything like that. I just don't have a whole lot of time to work on these, and while I always welcome suggestions, I wouldn't release if I didn't think it was "as good as it gets" (considering the pictures that were used of course)...

Anyway, just to start slowly, here is Chris Wilcox:

DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP THE APPROPRIATE FILE EACH TIME

Next is Dahntay Jones.

By cracky! wilcox's so cool

you can release all your patches under your own conditions. we are here to enjoy your work and thank you for making it..

by the way, can you do rasual butler ahead of schedule? the one i have has a different colored head and body. and also, can you fix LBJ's tats? thanks in advance. Excellent work sir..

Can't wait to see Dahntay's tats..

as usual great tats from you bro el badman

Is beasley in your plans? He has some new tattoos.

very good Chris Wilcox man. So detailed its almost surreal! great stuff. but I hope you could include the back up file with your patches? Would be convenient

can u make a better CF of Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom?

as usual great tats from you bro el badman

Thanks buddy

Is beasley in your plans? He has some new tattoos.

I will check it out, I haven't seen what they look like in game but I'll see what I can do.

but I hope you could include the back up file with your patches?

Sorry about that, I'll include it next time.

can u make a better CF of Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom?

I suck big time at CFs, I only do tats, sorry...

Great tats

So how do I combine your tats with other CFs? I guess that I need the IFF editor showfom has released..

Welcome back mate (from ur PC disaster back in live days ) that wilcoc tattoo is really very clean and clear, default tattoos are kinda blur.
Keep'em rolling

So how do I combine your tats with other CFs? I guess that I need the IFF editor showfom has released..

Exactly. Don't worry, it's really easy to use though.


Here's Dahntay Jones.

Apologies for this one, I thought that the pictures I had would serve me better, but they weren't as good as I thought...But well, since it's the best pix I could find, I'm releasing anyway.
I could not find a full picture of the tattoo that he has on the inside of his right biceps, so I used the one he has on the other arm so it wouldn't look so bare...

Well, if anyone cares, I figured Delonte West might be a bit more popular than Lorenzen Wright:
