Tempy should not be allowed near the bath salts. Poor Hack - looking very pale.

What's really interesting to me is that as bad as a lot of these look, the images definitely look like the player.

Like the Hank Aaron is weird looking, but I could tell you who it was with one look if I didn't know the player. Same for all the others. No, they don't look like photographs, but somehow these crudely sketched line drawings pretty closely resemble the player.

It's art. They don't all have to look like photographs. Tempy has a different style, which a lot of people here obviously don't like. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it's pretty hard to make something look both bad and recognizable at the same time. I'm not defending her, Leaf, or anyone else. Yeah, they look shoddy at first, but they're definitely the work of a professional artist.

I was actually thinking the same thing. Every link that I've opened thus far, I've played a little game with myself to see if I could guess the player without looking at the title or the team logo and I've been able to tell who it was every time...

I mean, minimally, the sketch LOOKS like the player.

Same, I can always tell who the player is even though it's just a rough undefined sketch.


I must say though, that Aaron literally made me "LOL". :lol:

Seriously though, I have to believe that when BG got these in hand he was mighty pissed. I also have to assume that it was too late in the packout to get replacements made. What I do not believe for one second is that BG or ANYONE on his payroll looked at these any thought anything but "Ugh..."

By the way, did BG reply yet on this? I am curious as to what he has to say because it's clear to everyone these are laughably bad.

Regardless of price paid, I would like to think that a serious artist would consider the public exposure and produce the best product possible.

Maybe next time Leaf should get a real artist and not a temp.......y.

I was wondering when FCB Sketches would make their way into this thread. Now let the fun really begin!

So...with 10 minutes before dinner brought the kiddos to the table for our craft to see how well we could do against the professionals. We used some Justin Huber cards I had lying around since they were all in slabs.

For reference these are what we used
