Alright, so I wanted to make my own custom cover for FIFA 16. I’m a huge fan of the game, and I thought it’d be cool to have a unique cover featuring my favorite player. Here’s how I did it.
Getting Started
First, I needed to find a good, high-quality image of the player I wanted. This took some digging. I scoured the internet, looking at tons of photos until I found one that was both dynamic and high-resolution. It had to be something that would look great on a cover.
Finding the Right Template
Next, I needed the actual FIFA 16 cover template. I didn’t want to just slap an image on a random rectangle; I wanted it to look legit. I searched for “FIFA 16 cover template PSD” and eventually found a few options. I downloaded one that looked pretty clean and had all the right layers.
Photoshop Time
- I opened the template in Photoshop. It had layers for the background, the player, the logos, everything. It made things easier.
- I imported my chosen player image into the template.
- Then came the tricky part: cutting out the player from the original background. I used the Pen tool, taking my time to get the edges as smooth as possible.
Putting It All Together
Once the player was cut out, I placed him onto the cover template. I had to resize and reposition him a few times to get it just right. The lighting was key, so I adjusted the brightness and contrast of the player image to make it match the background as much as possible.
Final Touches
After that, it was mostly about fine-tuning. I played around with some other layer that offer with the template, changing colors, trying not make it too messy. Finally, I saved the image as a high-resolution JPEG, ready to print or use as my desktop background.
It may took a while, but it was totally worth it. Now I’ve got a custom FIFA 16 cover that’s unique. The feeling is so good.
