TiagoVWA Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Hello there everyone, ratedrkaze here. I've been a CAWs.ws member for 4 straight years, and decided to make a new CAW showcase, due the failure in my first one circa 2007. I really want this topic to focus on my creations you'll see in the VWA Wrestling shows and PPV's, and not on the league itself. So I decided to get this started with Christopher Hughes, my main CAW that I've been creating since SVR2007 came out. Back then he was known as Christopher Idol, but he started to compete in 2009 under his real name, in order to become more reliable. Always have been a fan favourite among the crowd. He would be what we call an hardcore wrestler, wearing a pair of black shorts to wrestle and wearing a black jacket and an cap during his in-ring entrance. In 2009, he became more focused, leaving his brawler background aside replaced by a background of technical and submission specialist moves. The most remarkable feud in his career might have been with Adrian Radcliffe, who still competes on our active roster. Hughes is a very accomplished wrestler, being awarded by several VCW and VWA World Heavyweight Championships, VCW Hardcore Championships, Tag Team, and the list goes on.

ωasted Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I believe that the tattoo has been a major success, I also like the tattoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiagoVWA Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Thank you. I might post some in-game pictures or even another CAW or two that I'm about to give some final touches of myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ωasted Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Also do you have a link to where you got the tattoo? I'm thinking of using the hack again . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiagoVWA Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm sorry RMFan, but after a deep search through my browser it seems like I haven't saved the link from where I got these. They were kinda hard to find, but maybe you will be luckier than I was. I've imported these tattoos to the game two months ago, through. I'd appreciate if you guys commentated on the entire character and not only on his tattoos, if possible. Mostly because I'm looking for feedback from you guys. Thanks.

ωasted Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 People notice the tattoo's more because they're colourful . But the face looks like it's been morphed well. The attire seems very colourful and I like the black and white strap that you have going one there , makes me ask did you use the paint tool to do that? I like him generally is what I'm saying.

[/quote] His face was converted from SVR2007 on the PS2 to SVR2008 on the Xbox 360. Therefore I've converted it to SVR2010. The white strap has been made using the design #103, as well as the black one. Same thing for the gloves. And glad to know that his tattoos actually stand out, really.

KraZ Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Can't do the hack trick. My 360 isn't hooked up to the net. I am online now only through my phone. Also 360 live only at my parents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xx--ZX--xX Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Two thumbs up dude, you know how I feel about the CAWs after my PM over the weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingDW510 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Yea the tattoos are the best part, overall its a good character, maybe for one of the attires try and do something with paint tool or a more intricate design for the tights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiagoVWA Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 [color="#0000ff"]@ tha JOKEr [color="#000000"]You don't really need to hack designs into the game to make some quality creations. I just do that because it's the way I see things. Never quit without trying, man.[/color] @ Xx--ZX--xX[/color] Yeah, and thank you. [color="#0000ff"]@ KingDW510[/color] I've used two 256x256 Paint Tool designs so that's impossible for me to do. However, I decided to keep his attire the original look he had back in 2008, not too cluttered. I'll try some alternate attires even still. Some other of my characters have some wicked Paint Tool designs through, I may post two of these by the end of the day, as they're half finished.

Gio The Don Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 That tattoo is nice. I like how it doesn't look like paint, but you say it's a paint tool hack? Last time I checked, you cannot edit the colour of a paint tool hack in game or lower the alpha to make it blend better. Also did you make the background colour skin colour before putting the image into the game? It's just that tattoo blends in with the skin so well and just looks so realistic. The whole CAW is good, I'm a big believer in the "simple but effective" motto and this CAW is a perfect example of that in my opinion. Good job man.

Spyder78 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 You have to edit the colors & what not in Photoshop or any of those kinds of programs before putting into the game. It is painstakingly tedious but worth it when it comes out like this. Well done Rated keep up the good work in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiagoVWA Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Thanks, Gio-Goi and Spyder. The background of the tattoo's is transparent, and what I really did was put a design on the top of it, and made it the color of the skin. And yeah, I'm always looking for realism instead of these cluttered CAWs with black and yellow designs we see all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@OnlyApathy4U Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 As everyone else said the tattoos are phenomenal. I also like the tights. I'm a fan of the simple ones that look real [url="http://caws.ws/forum/topic/376947-phenomenal-novice-showcase/"]Showcase[/url] [url="http://caws.ws/forum/topic/377856-semi-phenomenal-caws-dynamite-mikey-harrismichael-harris/"]Michael Harris[/url] [url="http://caws.ws/forum/topic/377024-phenomenal-novice-caw-the-cowboy-walker-harris/"]Walker Harris[/url] [url="http://caws.ws/forum/topic/377033-phenomenal-novice-caw-the-rocker-randy-starr/"]Randy Starr[/url] [url="http://caws.ws/forum/topic/378295-lance-titan/topic/378295-phenomenal-novice-caw-lance-titan/"]Lance Titan[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiagoVWA Posted August 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Sorry for the delay, guys. I've been really concerned about my personal life lately. However, like I promised, here are some Christopher Hughes in-game shots: [center][img]http://i36.tinypic.com/e849l4.png[/img] [img]http://i38.tinypic.com/aonn2s.png[/img] [left]For the next CAW to be showcased I've picked Jack Welbeck. I always wanted to create a character with a large physique yet athletic. I've pictured Welbeck while I was bored during History classes, and I think I came up with a decent character to be honest. That means the first time I've created him was on SVR2010. Graduated at the Manchester College Athletics, Jack Welbeck has a large amateur wrestling background, combined with athleticism and roughness. Considered as a future number one contender for the company major titles, he might have a brilliant career down the road.
