Quick Tutorial on Jersey Swaps

This is a quick tutorial on doing a jersey swap with Photoshop.

These are the steps to follow:

  • Find and select 2 images that are similar sizes (Large files work best) and with players in similar poses
  • Use the Pen tool to trace out the jersey you will be placing on top of the original
  • Copy and paste it onto the original
  • Use the Transform and Warp tools to line up the jersey correctly
  • Use the Clipping Mask tool to place the second jersey on top of the original
  • Merge layers together

Jersey swaps are incredibly fun and this video is a VERY quick summary of how to do one. It is something that you will always get better at with experience.

If you have some awesome jersey swaps show me yours! I love seeing them!
