rugby template in early days...
View attachment 129576

This is the first time I have had a go at making a template

The shape is pretty good mate, you just need to clean up your lines.

You're using illustrator, yeah?

If when you place an anchor point, instead of just clicking, click and drag and you'll create a curve. That will sort out all the little straight lines and corners you have there.

Top tip: trace only one side of the jersey. Once you've done that, copy the whole thing, flip it and join the two sides together. You'll get a perfectly symmetrical template.

thanks guys

yeh it is pretty obvious we need to straighten some lines up as we can't have a wonky uneven template :)

Yeah, just lock the layer(s) that you've already done and trace over the top, but utilise the pen tool's anchors and curves to smooth it out this time. Try starting with the base grey part then make a new layer for the sleeve*, then another for the collar.

*Just the one sleeve because you only need half a template as said by others.
 
Your lines are still a bit wonky, but that's way better. Using the pen tool just improves with practice.

Watching some videos on YouTube as well, there are tutorials everywhere.
yeh honestly youtube is extremely helpful, love it

I will continue to retrace stuff, but for now i'm really tired so I will work on it more tomorrow :)
thanks
