@Jones: Love the Liverpool kits. 8/10 for the home and 10/10 for the other two.

Here is my most recent kit. First time I've uploaded one with the new template.
Manchester United 1990 away. Rates? Comments?

Should look like this.

Black stroke of 1 around the sponsor? Still, brilliant 9.9/10 :)

Yeah i tried to use the badges from that time period, so the quality wasn't as great, and they didn't stand up to the resizing as well. As for the logos, they are kind of hard to see on the real kit as well.

Thanks, and You're completely right, I totally missed that stroke on the sponsor.

My first ever try with a pen tool. It took me like a hour, that's why it's uploaded so late!
It's supposed to be like the 1997 Chelsea home kit, but I epically failed <)

Here's what it's SUPPOSED to look like: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3319/3483227567_42338fd8fe.jpg
How can I improve? Any tips?​

You're being too hard on yourself. It certainly isn't an epic fail. As a matter of fact it is quite good. The v-neck part of the collar is a little off, but other than that it is pretty spot on. 9/10. Unfortunately with the pen tool I don't think there is any miracle tips I, personally, can give. Just practice, and practice. I have found a good way to do this is pick an existing kit design that will require a lot of pen tooling and appears massively ambitious, and just try to replicate it. Do this a few times, and before long the pen tool will begin to feel more and more natural, the results will get better, and the process will become a lot quicker. Keep it up!
 
My first attempt with the new template

I appreciate these words jomser, since you are a very good kit maker, and it took me a long time. I found the neck pretty difficult and that was my best attempt. Thanks again :)

First go using the new templates, and first kit I have made for about a month. :S

Edit: Not sure what is going on with the badge.

Nice, 8.5/10. :)
That happens sometimes with the badges when moving or resizing 'em. Hold shift when you're moving them a lot or resizing, it happens less often then I've found. :D
