The fact that this video has 5 times as many views as your sub-count is indicative of how helpful it is, but also criminal. You deserve way more subs, man. Thanks for the video and especially the fantastic template! My first texture in that template turned out better than any face texture attempt I've ever done in the past.
Excellent video - i'm going to start preparing some face textures soon for 2K19. Another quick tip - if the image you use isn't symmetrical (ie. they have hair covering their forehead on one side), duplicate the clearer side of their face and flip it horizontally, then line it it up. Works well.
Another suggestion I have is that if you can't find a good looking front facing image due to the wrestler being one of those types that tends to pull faces, try and find a promo (shot in HD) where the wrestler directly addresses the camera. He/She will have a neutral expression at some point!
I'm still playing 2K19 in 2020. I just wanted to thank you, Defract, for this tutorial and your face template guide. I've been using it since 2K18 and I must say, it's been a real game changer. After a couple years of practice I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of it. Hopefully in the future 2K decide to make it a little more user friendly for those without a background in image editing. I do enjoy the challenge though, but I can imagine that it's not everyone's cup of tea. Anyway, just wanted to thank you again. Cheers mate.
Thanks for the readymade face texture template tip? i don't know why i didn't think of it before. All these years, i actually created those from scratch by using front and side pics.
Thank you so much for this. I've been struggling literally for multiple hours already getting a good photo and editing my character but there always was just something off. The combination of the video and your psd file has helped so much and i wish I found it earlier! :)
I can say without a doubt this works for 2K20 as well, but you will want to experiment with other ideas as well. After realizing what I was doing wrong, I think most of my CAWs designs look a bit better than before.
You need to delete the eyeballs from the final product using the polygonal tool or it will show up even if ever so slightly. Then save as a png for transparency.
Would've loved to see a tutorial on how to remake your fantastic Jericho. I really wanna use it in My Career But it ended up looking slightly off somehow. The head always comes out looking too big. This is why I miss last gen for remaking caws sometimes. Nevetheless keep up the amazing work!
Man I didn't know that you have a UA-cam channel wow. Then downloading your caws since PS3 I wish that you would jump on the Xbox One and make some caws on that one
Defract, can you help me? The combination of my CPU and my ability just can't manage to get this right. I'm an independent wrestler trying to get my face texture right. Could you provide an assist for me with this?
Very helpful video, thank you so much! Only thing I would change was that at the end, it would have been nice to see the Adam Cole face texture in the game, just to get a feel of how your editing has helped.
Thanks for sharing this valuable informational video and the added tools. This goes a long way in helping your fellow creators. Again, much appreciated! Liked and subscribed. I have a quick question: Do you have any tips for lining up the nostrils on the in-game model? For some reason, I can never seem to get that right. The area that should be shaded is either too light, or the nostrils simply don't line up properly with the model's nose. Any tips here would be greatly appreciated.
Please make a Video/Livestream at some point where you show how to improve to create a character overall. Whenever I'm trying to make a decent character he looks way to basic.
I am not good at photo editing software. I am trying to make a CAW face of British actor Samuel Anderson but not having any luck at. I am trying to do one of these faces on GIMP but it's not coming out right.
This is gonna sound like a dumb question....but what are the best dimensions for pictures to make sure everything fits the face a s perfectly as possible?

Awesome to see you working on CAWs and helping other creators out as well. Thanks for the tips. Also, thanks for the link to PSD’s new link.
Thanks man!!! This video is CLUTCH!
@TNM Albert Damn😂
This video really help, can you do "How to improve your body textures" next?
You should make one on attires
Absolutely buddy, lot's planned for the next few months!
Born2Last faces are harder then attires tho
the attire look harder imo
Defract CAWs yeah, right
Vinicius Tavares Still waiting. xd
Thanks for the readymade face texture template tip? i don't know why i didn't think of it before. All these years, i actually created those from scratch by using front and side pics.
You’re caws are my number one favorite on PS4 community creations especially the Kenny omega caw
This really helps regardless of not having a computer connected to my tv and xbox one.
Your CAWS are some of the best on WWE Games, my only problem is the move sets are not always the best but the CAW itself mostly looks perfect
WWE 2k18 seems like the best looking wrestling game
One of the reasons why I still play it.
@@dagameplayer my man 👊😎 that's what I'm talking about yea!
with 2k22 dropping soon i had to revisit this video so that i could refresh my mind on how to make face scans
Your face texture template helped me lots with my face shape issues. Thanks, Defract.
Amazing tutorial! You taught me some great stuff that'll definitely come in handy with my OC CAWs next time I make one. Thanks a lot man.
Hugg Niceman thanks man. Glad to help!
Thatguy Bryanevans is a very underated wwe2k gaming channel he should be given more credit for his videos
Thank you so much for this. I've been struggling literally for multiple hours already getting a good photo and editing my character but there always was just something off.
The combination of the video and your psd file has helped so much and i wish I found it earlier! :)
Man what a great tutorial, thank you so much!
Great Video DEFRACT !
My face caws were great but the high pass option made it a perfect 10!! Cheers
I Did This Thanks It Help A Lot I Recommended this video to my subs if they wanted to make a good face in wwe 2k18
I can say without a doubt this works for 2K20 as well, but you will want to experiment with other ideas as well. After realizing what I was doing wrong, I think most of my CAWs designs look a bit better than before.
Close i could get to photoshop is CS2 but should be more of the same tools, thanks Defract!
My caw looks so much better now. Thank you so much for this vid! Could you make a vid on creating good attires?
You are a life save brother
So helpful man. Definitely gonna fix up some of my OCs with this.
Great work bro can you do a tutorial how your do the process with Photoshop of caws face
I use the logo of Carl Brooks of one of my caws
Uh the face part in Tools is gone -_-
You need to do a full video . Ur video is amazing
You need to delete the eyeballs from the final product using the polygonal tool or it will show up even if ever so slightly.
Then save as a png for transparency.
Thanks for this man! I'm definitely going to try and put these tips to use.
You make the greatest caws, better than anyones elses
Show the Stream ryee is kinda better
They are both great, for example ryeedee´s Marty Scurll is way better than Defract´s , meanwhile Defract´s Cody is way better than Ryeedee´s Cody

this wil come in handy as I want to use my friends face as my female manager
Great vid...but the easy way i would improve the face scan...I would use the logos(the squares and the circles) and I would blend it with the face.
i always use full body textures front sides and back for the most hyper realistic look
Perfect video, love all your'e caws, i like so much Carl Brooks!
Defract love ur CAWS keep up the work u ar the man bro.... I wish ThaCleana was on 2k18 that guy is a fuckin beast too. Thanks for all ur work peace
Wish that Kenny Omega can was on PC man. Shit looks good!
That's because there's nobody trying to make masterpieces on pc.
It's up to us.
Man I didn't know that you have a UA-cam channel wow. Then downloading your caws since PS3 I wish that you would jump on the Xbox One and make some caws on that one
really helpful and concise! you earned a sub!
does this work with women caws as well?
CAW Creator yes

Are you going to create the young bucks to complete the rest of the bullet club?
Already working on them ;)
hey defract, love your caws man. you ever think there’s gonna be a Lio Rush Caw coming soon?
I needed this. Thank you!
Does this still applies to 2k19?
Defract, can you help me? The combination of my CPU and my ability just can't manage to get this right. I'm an independent wrestler trying to get my face texture right. Could you provide an assist for me with this?

CHRIS DANGER BOY!!!
Please make a Video/Livestream at some point where you show how to improve to create a character overall. Whenever I'm trying to make a decent character he looks way to basic.
I love your voice lol.
I am not good at photo editing software. I am trying to make a CAW face of British actor Samuel Anderson but not having any luck at. I am trying to do one of these faces on GIMP but it's not coming out right.
Very helpful! Any tips on textures for African Americans/. I find a lot of lighting pictures with only half lit faces. (Ex. UFC/MMA fighters))
This is gonna sound like a dumb question....but what are the best dimensions for pictures to make sure everything fits the face a s perfectly as possible?
I’ll just download them it’s easier
How do you download them
@@LoudestBlack he means the caws.
Great video man I'd love for you to check out my caw showcases sometime
The WWE 2K face scan system need to be better it is not nearly as good as NBA 2K face scan system.
Defract, if you still see this vid, I am having issues matching up. Do I match face to template or template to face? I'm using your template btw
Chris denker on your video!!!!?😮😶😏👏
Will these work with 2K20? I’m on PC and making a twitch follower CAW universe and I have people sending me their face photos to add
Great info & video but im bad at these is there any way you could do a specific one for me & send it to me of chris benoit
Please make an updated dean ambrose before 2k19
Any advice for Xbox or ps4 owners ?
CHRIS DENKER BABY BOIII
Any advice on making the attire better?
is this the same for the women??? if not could you please make a female version as that is what i really need
I’m new to this and can someone tell me how he overlay the photo with the default face. i would be glad if anyone sees this
Another software Choice is Krita
Will my Caw look weird if it didnt line up perfectly with those purple lines?
I did it yayyyyyyyy😄😄😄😄😄

Can you do one on 2k20?
Hi Defract...I was wondering if u could help me make attires or Caw

anthony bundy You will need to open the rar file with winrar buddy. 👍
I like that's nice so mod face is Kenny Omega! , it's community caws download better mod
I’m assuming this is only for Pc?
Unable to paste an image into your template.... Using PS CC 2015
Can you show how to do this with Paint.NET?
Do you have a Face texture template for female CAWS?
