UNFORTUNATE ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING WALTON
Sorry to all my fellow oldheads and retro fans, there simply aren't any reference photos i can work with here. Tried all corners of the internet, and even tried getting screenshots from interviews, but it was all in potato quality. The man never took a photo with his mouth closed, and the cameras back then had terrible quality. In line with that, this month's pack will have 11 players. If you are on the Petty's Dozen pack you will still get 12 players, you will be able to choose any other cyberface i've made instead of Walton. If you are here for retro faces and were really looking forward to this one i'm really sorry, DM me and we'll figure something out. Additionally, i will add the college look to Jaylen brown, when i get back from my vacation, which should be around the 8th of July. This will of course be a free update to anyone who has my Jalen already.

replace him with moses brown the real goat of Blazers LMAO
Bummer. You should check with Toboggan, as he made a really good 86 Walton. I’m thinking that if you used whatever references he had and then just ‘de-age’ them a bit and add the right hair/accessories, it could be an awesome prime Blazers version. EDIT: As a matter of fact, in previous polls I always avoided voting for Walton because I feel like Toboggan's 86 version is so good that I could always just make my own prime version merely by tweaking it (i.e., swapping out the hair, smoothing over a few facial blemishes, etc.)—so to me I always felt Walton was lower priority than other guys like Rick Barry who looked even worse by default and had virtually no good downloadable CFs (until yours)—but I nominated Walton this go around just because I thought maybe getting his hippie look with your level of skill might be worth it.
first thing doc told me when he learned i was making walton was "ouch" lol I didn't know he made one, i might get this done for you guys when i get back from vacation, i just couldn't work on it now, the way i work is that i have to be happy with the end results too, otherwise it drives me crazy, and the photos were just not even close to the minimum standards i'd require. I even thought about just using Luke Walton as a base and modeling it and adding the hair and beard but i couldn't even find good photos for modeling. Basically i can't really work if i don't know what i'm making. I probably should've checked before even putting it in the voting poll but seeing as how high profile of a player he was i expected at least some decent photos.
I have some good references for walton
I can help
Would love to see a 86 Celtics version of Walton instead
no good photos there either...
