Just like clockwork, we’re back
You might have thought our last Photoshop challenge would be our last. Considering we left it eight months last time, we thought we’d treat to you to another. You’re welcome.
As we watched the FA Cup final, one moment – among the numerous chances for both sides – caught our eye.
Chelsea centre-back Antonio Rüdiger, who is set to sign for Real Madrid at the end of the season, made a spectacular, but incredibly strange, block. So, of course, we couldn’t let the opportunity for a FootballJOE Photoshop Challenge™ pass us by, could we?
The task, like always, was simple. Take one still image of Rüdiger, use your incredible imaginations and any photo editing skills you might possess, and show us what you can do. Simple.
Typically, you didn’t let us down. Here are just some of the highlights, but if you’re bored tonight, we suggest you take a bit more time and look at the rest of the replies to the tweet below.
It’s time for another *drum roll*…. 🚨 PHOTOSHOP CHALLENGE 🚨
Edit this png of Antonio Rudiger into something funny and we’ll share the best ones. Go 👇 pic.twitter.com/OrBpNsmHTM
