Fiorentina 2009/20010 Away and third kits


Fiorentina’s 2009/10 shirts are manufactured by Lotto. Their new away and third kits same design as home. The away kit has always been predominantly white, sometimes with purple and red elements, sometimes all-white. The shorts had been purple when the home kit was with white shorts. Fiorentina's third kit was first one in the 1995-96 season and it was all-red with purple borders and two lilies on the shoulders. The red shirt has been the most worn 3rd shirt by Fiorentina, although they also wore rare yellow shirts ('97-'98 and '99-'00) .


Me and my friend Gary

At least I have something to chher-up today, my friend Gary O'Hare from Irelands send me a photo during their holiday in Kuala Lumpur for 3 days with his girl friend. I'ts been great for me to spend most whole day with Gary shopping for M-League club kits for their collection. OF course these is a few good memories for me before end year 2009.

Fiorentina 2009/20010 home kits

Italian Serie A club's based in Florence, ACF Fiorentina are known widely by the nickname Viola, a reference to their distinctive purple colours.Since 1931 the club have played at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, which currently has a capacity of 47,282. Claudio Cesare Prandelli is an Italian born coach, currently of ACF Fiorentina after taking over from Dino Zoff, at the beginning of the 2005–06 season. In the UEFA champions league tournaments group stage, Fiorentina was grouped with Liverpool FC, Lyon and Debrecen in Group E. Prandelli managed to get Fiorentina into the group phase, after defeating SK Slavia Praha in the third qualifying round. On the European stage Fiorentina won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1960-61 and lost the final one year later, they finished runners-up in the 1956–57 European Cup losing against Real Madrid and also came close to winning the UEFA Cup, finishing as runners-up in the 1989-90 season.

Tutorial with Subbuteo decal template

Here the basic tutorial to you would like to creating their own basic 2k4 Subbuteo team with my decal template, Argentina World Cup 1978 team
away kits. I've tried adopt it through my experiences with military and warhammer figure painting. If you don’t have any experience in miniature
modelling, you will find it very hard to cope with the tasks below. If you possess only one of the skills but you lack the other, a good idea would be
to work as a team with a friend.



Tools you need :
Subbuteo 2k4 figure
“X-Acto” cutter, some Scissors and a pair of tweezers.
Decal softening solution - or decal fix.
Clear Acrylic Spray - or any other sealant type.
And these are waterslide decals. So you'll need a small bowl of filtered water

Step 1. Undercoating the Figure
Research every piece of information regarding the team’s kit. Undercoating the figures will give the colours a bright quality and lets you leave any white areas unpainted as they have already had a coat of white spray. A good way of spraying figures is to punch a series of holes in a cardboard tube with a handle made from stick or old pen. This allows you to spray a whole team in one go. If you use acrylic paints, the time allowed between painting different colours is minimal. If you use enamel paints, you will have to wait for one colour to dry before you apply another one (this can take more than an hour, especially when you apply a light colour over a dark one). For painted I recommended range of water based acrylics such Gunze, Tamiya and the best Citadel paint (from warhammer range) all range available at ‘Games Workshop’ stores.

Step 2. Decals Printing
My decal template included the bonus outline template, done with the a.i formats (Sure no problem with Corel Draw). Print the template on a decal paper sheet. You can use either an inkjet or a laser printer, provided that you use the correct decal paper type. Also, you can use white or transparent paper. My recommendation is not to use transparent when you print white letters on dark background. Cut the decals to the appropriate size, and dip the small pieces into cold water in a shallow small plate. Let them soak for about two/three minutes. With the help of the “X-Acto” cutter put each decal in its place on the figure. Let decals dry for at least I hours. When the decals have dried completely, because these surfaces are curved or domed apply another coat of glossy transparent varnish or decal fixer.

Here few tips:
- The decal itself is on a film, which slides off the backing when you gently slide it with your finger. Slide it onto the element, and iron out any air bubbles with a cotton bud/Q-tip. Make sure not to let it wrinkle. Let dry for about 1 to 5 hours. When the decals have dried completely, apply another coat of glossy transparent varnish or decal fixer.
- All these surfaces are curved or domed, and thus require a softening solution for the decals. (E.g. Humbrol Decal Fix, which works as one.)
- When painting a team, try painting each stage on three or four players at a time. Any more than that, and the process can become to much like a production line. If you need more detailed, visited here, same process with the LEGO decal template.

Step 3. Kits painting
Start by painting the skin areas – facial hair, dreadlocks and different colours and styles of boots. Leave the shirt, short and sock without painting. These time print the shirt, short and stocking template on decal paper. Continue and repeated with the stage 2 process. Start painting around the edges of the applied decals. This is to ensure you are not going to spoil the decals by mistake on a later stage. Complete the painting of the kit, trying to use the closest shades of colours to the printed ones. If you use new unpainted figures, avoid painting the white colour as much as you
can.

Step 4. Finishing touch.
At this stage, you can add the finishing touches. Paint the appropriate flesh tone and hair colour, the drawstring on the shorts and some detail on the boots. If the player has any other particularities (wristband, tattoo etc), painting of these will mark out the individuality of the figure. Shoes colouring and painting of brand logos also adds realism. And last for securing the paint, apply a thick coat of matt transparent enamel varnish all over the figure’s surface. This will protect the paint from peeling and decals from detaching.

You also can request in design for the Subbuteo team kits decal template for a reasonble fee. The services not included the decal paper sheet. Just emailing us at switch_image@yahoo.com for the detailed.

Vote font set comment

Got the results for the vote, as i thought, FREE the top choices. And surprised me, the donation more then 20% much higher than I predict. Here my opinion if I'm progress with the free font :

1. Vectorized font for me fun, and the best thing bring more followers to me. But the negative it takes more time than design kits ( That's my opinion only), Also got to spend much working on sources such photo, the font type also just imagine how many thousand we know, on my cd itself I have compilation over than 15,000 true type font.

2. Sometimes I'm also got the vectoried font contributed by friend, and that's the great helped, but still need to updated (Not all of them). Currently I have more than 20 font sets still under progress, at the moment Juan from Chilekits.blogspot maybe know how many they should helped me....Thanks always Juan.

3. Lastly sources, majority I'm got, friends who send me font set from PES patch image. I don't want to blame cause that's the easiest sources to get. The problem image to small and jagged, vector and ttf not same, to get detailed ttf got to created from vectorized.

Here my conclusion, maybe for the font set I'm should have few members running it, who really concentrated on these and share amongs us. Or I'm got to make a new site/blog with forum that's supported, running all by my members and followers. On that site I'm contribute all the sources from kit design tutorial, font and everything on footbal design.

If all my friends have any idea or need to discuss share it here, voiced it now.





Not to forget when I posted the Bayern kits, always remember these Germany kits design by Emre. I'm really liked the the team logo, gold with black.
Thanks again to Jose Marcos when I'need to write about the font, for his sources.

Lastly my English bad, please ignore

Netherlands World Cup 1978 kits

Team Im really like to watch theire games, with the famous for its mastery of Total Football and was nicknamed Clockwork Oranje for its precision passing. Best with players such as Johan Neeskens, Johan Cruyff and Arie Haan that time, sadly on the World Cup 78 tournament This side played without Cruyff, Willem van Hanegem, and Jan van Beveren, who refused to participate in the World Cup.

In the tournaments group stage, Netherlands was grouped with Peru, Scotland and Iran in Group D. This time the Netherlands were less impressive in the group stages, as they qualified only as runners-up, after a draw with Peru and a loss to Scotland. In the second group phase, however, the Netherlands topped a group including Italy and West Germany, setting up a final with Argentina. However, the Dutch finished as runners up for the second World Cup in a row as they ultimately lost 3–1 after two extra time goals from Argentina.

No more BPL team kits soon

Another bad news from me, today
I'm got to removed all the Premier League team kits before 18th December 2009. So you all have 2 more days to see all my Premier League kits.

Here the message I'm received :

We have received a number of complaints about the Premier League kit templates posted on your site. These templates infringe the intellectual property (including copyright and trade marks) of a number of parties – for instance – the Liverpool template infringes rights of Liverpool FC, Adidas, and the Premier League itself. From your blog it does seem that you are developing the site as a personal project so we would rather approach you personally first than take more formal measures. However, we must insist that all Premier League club kit templates are removed from the website as soon as possible and in any event by Friday December 18th.

Celtic FC 2008-10 home kits

Celtic’s home kits same design as 2008/09 season. Inscription inside of the collar reads "It's not the creed nor nationality that counts. It's the man himself". The text 'Celtic' is printed on the back of the collar Celtic FC shirts. Celtic FC badge is embroidered on the front of the left chest of shirt. One star is embroidered above the crest representing Celtic FC one Champion's League title and the maker embroidered Nike Swoosh logo appears on the right chest in yellow gold. Celtic FC sponsor, Carling logo is heat pressed across the middle of the shirt. Celtic FC shirts will be worn with white shorts and socks is completed with the words "Celtic" and the nike logo.

Check out these two Celtic FC Euro version kits, spot the players/name set. From my view the last season letterset much better than 2009/10 set. Celtic FC Champions League shirts have a plain white back because of the UEFA rules about the numbers visibility. You can see that it's the same for the other Champions League teams with special kits such Barcelona shirts have a plain blue back and Inter shirts have a plain black back.

Celtic FC Third/UEFA kits (away International strip that that they will wear in the Champions League next year, assuming they make it through the qualifying rounds.), which cries out passion and pride for both club and country with a new tartan design from Nike. Nike, with the obvious input from Celtic themselves, have come up with something that bit different that incorporates Celtic Tartan into the kit to give it a traditional Scottish look. The Celtic third football shirt is the second new football shirt Nike have produced for the 09/10 season, following the release of the new Celtic 'bumble-bee' away strip! The new Celtic football shirt features a white v-neck shirt with shoulder panels made of Celtic tartan. Carling continues as Celtics shirt sponsors. The shorts in pure tartan green to unleash a new made-in-Scotland look and the socks are white with a green hoop and the words Celtic FC on them and round off the kit nicely.
