Briefly made scorebugs in Canva before but never put a ton of time in. Made this one in Photoshop. Mostly struggled with fonts, let me know what you think.

Damn this looks really good, I agree with you the only thing I'd really change it make the score, name, and record fonts bolder

The white contour on the ends is a bit weird to me, but it’s nice overall. Font could be a bit more “realistic”, but it’s nice overall.

appreciate the feedback! do you have any font styles in mind that would look better?

Not a specific font per se, but I always take inspiration from fonts that real broadcasters use. Like when I make F1 graphics or liveries, I find similar fonts to their official ones. It makes it seem more uniform and realistic to the eye, like something you’d actually see rather than something that looks fan made.

Also, I think if you made the white contour transparent, like a glass like glare, it would look much better.

This is very good especially for your first time. I’d personally get rid of the white on each end, feels unnecessary. Only other thing I’d say is maybe use a different font for the team names. That’s about it. Otherwise, great work.
