CAW University- Tattoo Creation & Design

One of the most asked about subject of Logo designing in the THQ/WWE games, broken down in depth for you in this 3rd edition of CAW U. Here, I also go into some real life tattoo design theories that should hopefully help you to conceptualize and create your own distinctive tattoos for your CAWS, in places that are both common and not so common on the body.

I also create a unique tattoo design from an existing design and demonstrate different shades of color for the optimal "realistic" look on the various skin types within the CAW mode itself.

Design being worked with in this tutorial:

NOTES: This is the longest tutorial to date, but if you watch all the way you should take away some very useful information and theories to help your own creations. Also, I'm suffering a cold or fever or whatever it is as of this, so pardon any sniffles you might hear throughout, I did my best to edit them out.

Sometimes when you talk, it sounds like you're abut to cry lmao.

@AAEGamingTV Those were the moments I was trying unsuccessfully to fight off a cough or a sneeze, lol.

I can't draw whatsoever (I can prove this with a piece of paper and a pencil if I have to XD). And, I have very little patience for things like this. I get frustrated easily. I do appreciate what yer doing for people though, Obaid, but with me... I'll just download designs from the CC for use or stick with the default designs the game gives. I seem to work pretty well with the default designs. XD

[Thr33X]

@xXIsaIsaXx There's nothing at all wrong with that either, but I recommend that moreso with attire pieces and actual logos than tattoos, because in those cases, should the creator of the work not recreate it in the next game, you can always find something else. In that respect, tattoos on a CAW are kind of just as a permanent as they are on real people, lol.

Man you're not racist those tattoos are haha and heck yea I saw those tan lines :Shame on THQ ;P But I remember I tried to make a tribal design and I failed in paint tool ( but it looked great on paper). Maybe it was because I went off the top of my head and my shading was way off. Anyways but I'll try your method. But I know in order for me to pull this one off I would need to practice more with the line tool. Great vid though I can't wait for more.

[Thr33X]

@SVRSwag The line tool is essential to Logo making if you're not doing the dot-by-dot method. Start with using it to make simple shapes to get the hang of how to create curves and things of that nature. Practicing is the key as in all things...but learning the line tool is the first and biggest step toward creating your own designs, whether their from another design or from scratch,

Great tutorial! but if i may, try not to place the mic so close to your mouth, to avoid that sound you get when you talk.

[xXIsaIsaXx]

@Thr33X Very true. Which is why I try not to use tattoos since I never know what's going to be taken away. If I do use a tattoo, I try to pick something that can easily be replaced. Which is a problem I had with my caw "Titan" one of the default designs was taken away, completely removing his left arm tattoo. Though, by designs, I mainly meant for attires. I just realized I commented on your tattoo video. Oops. :3

[Thr33X]

@jeevesosiris Absolutely. I'll add this to the list of future tutorials. Might even do it next. ;)

I really love these videos. I have been making CAWS since Warzone but I cannot get the hang of the line tool on the recent games it is really frustrating as I have 50 caws who would benifit from more details logos. I have a lot of masked CAWS, would a video on mask designs be something you could look into?
