I need some feedback on this one, guys. I think he looks good with the neck but let me know if some adjustment needs to be made in that part.
This is Hernán Buján, River Plate's coach. His cut out has been the same since 2015 so I thought it would be good to improve that one.

Hey there everyone!
After an exchange and some feedback with @mons I decided to give it a shot at Ignacio Fernandez from River Plate (Argentina) to update his current cut out.

Thoughts and feedback?

No trouble at all.

Give it a go and I'll have a look at it to see if there's anything which can be improved in it and if it'll eventually be an improvement. My hunch is that it won't, but happy to be proven wrong 🙂

One more thing. If you happen to have a batch of images to upload, save yourself some time and use the upload pack button instead of uploading them individually like you did yesterday 😉

Gahh!! Didn't know that option existed! Haha. Thanks again @mons!!

I'm afraid that is far from a super high quality picture. While this is indeed 653x667 in dimensions, a lot of space is taken up by areas which are not really important for a facepack. If you crop it to closer to the chin, this is what you get:

I'm at work so can't confirm, but as it's only 257 pixels height, once you nudge the collar upwards and crop it, it'll probably need to be upscaled and for the snow to be removed. So there's a fair bit of work to be done it for it to be game-ready.

The current cut-out can definitely be improved but I have my doubts as to whether this source will provide an improvement due to the reasons listed above.

To answer your final question, when the current megapack cut is recent, of a very good quality and similar to the player's present look (i.e. no drastic haircut etc.), then there is very little point in spending time to cut a source which will be a little more recent. There are hundreds of thousands of players in the game's database and in the megapack, and there are much more pressing needs than having cuts updated every few months. It's just a question of using one's time effectively, after all 🙂

P.S. It's 250x250 not 300x300 😉

@mons Yep, it's 257 pixels as you say. I can totally understand that there's some work to be done with that Ignacio Fernandez source but I can give it a shot and submit it to the cut out thread for some feedback if that's okay.

Thank you for your time of answering all these doubts and questions and sorry for any trouble I may have caused!

@mons I mean yeah, these new official pictures work absolutely great in 300x300, though I understand in this particular Borré case that his looks may not look too different from the previous approved cut out. Should a submission be made with a few months of difference even if it's super high quality picture? Or it's not worth it?

Good work @pablovester, but it contains a little bit of snow. Please read this thread to see what we mean by snow, how you can spot it and how you can quickly and easily remove it 👍

@mons Thanks for the heads up, I didn't know there was a thread so I'll go to that and check it out. Sorry for the 'snow' problem, good to have some feedback!

@pablovester, good work. For future cuts, please remember to only leave 2-3 pixels beneath the chin so that we try and keep a standard megapack look where the focus of the cut is the face 👍

Thank you @mons! Perfect, I'll try that from now on, it's good to have all of them standarized.

@weeniehutjr The 655x667 files do look much better. Example
Do you think those might work better as submission?

@weeniehutjr I am getting all of them from official River Plate website. Most of them are 270x360, so I try to edit them and sharpen them a little bit. As I was writing this comment, I realized there are 655x667 files available.

These are the latest photos from the players, and as some of them are outdated I'd figure I could upload them here. If I am not following any guidelines, I am sorry! I was trying to contribute to the team. Let me know if I should stop, thank you for your comment.
