Quote from oscarhardwick :

P.S - would appreciate ideas for a second skin where my focus is decal stretching.

I started by picking simple skins, something like this team rac livery, try looking up btcc or rally liveries on google images that's were I get most of my skin ideas from.

Quote from HalleMarques :

Sorry for the double post, and sorry again for digging this up. And one more sorry for posting on wrong topic (I won't create another one in WIP, that's better this way...), but, I had to post this... I'm not any Kiste or any of the L4P guys, but I do my best... I swear...

From what I can see, that's a nice skin. The colours are a bit weird for a Ferrari livery, and it might be a little plain, but the work is quality.

Brilliant! A new take on an already great livery.

My first livery (if you consider that Photofiltre gradient skins are not appliable...), took some time to do it, but finally I had the inspiration of doing it...

Since it's a private skin (yeah, I posted it here so some players can download it and see it when I'm racing... or not), please do not use or edit it!

Had to upload on Imageshack because the files are too big, so...
1024 / 2048

Also, if you download it, please rename it for FBM_Halle_001

Critics welcome!
Thanks!

Well, yesterday I had a flash of inspiration and motivation to start a skin of LFS, a thing that I never did with a good program (when the XRT was available on Demo, I used to do some bad liveries on Photofiltre, and did like, only three or four, then I quitted skinning), and yesterday, when I got bored from failure on FBM, thought of doing skins again; but now on GIMP.

I wanted a new skin for me anyway, since I have started playing BATracer (some of you here know it, I guess, already seen known faces there, like Yuri Laszlo and Christian Zorner here) I started to do liveries for it. Is waaaay easier do a great livery on a 500x200 2D image, rather than a complex and compressed 2048² 3D image, so I never tried the skins after started doing liveries for BATracer. So then, I asked Kruithoff if he could do a private skin for me, and he did a great one (I still owe you one, dude!), but I had to try atleast once.

So, did a simply paintjob, and tried to avoid the connected parts, because I don't have the patience that you guys do (LOL³³³) and I'm still working on the logotypes and stuff...

If you guys wanna criticize it, and do some suggestions, I would love to hear...

Thanks!

I'd hate to see Martin go, he (to me) is a link to the old-school. Heck I'd LOVE to see that early 1990s Valvoline livery back one more time

I will now be using my original ER Livery previously posted in this thread.

Is there any one who want to do redbulls starwars livery for fbm.

This would help




Some more pics...

Almoust like RB-racing 05 car but whit starwars logos. Would anyone help?plz

Ahhh... I really wanted to take part this time but had no time. Just finished the skin for it Thursday night but had absolutely no chance to do the edit yesterday.

While I struggled at first it became clear to me I had to vote JO53PHS.
By the way I would love to see a system that'd let every user choose 0-10 points for every entry.

Instead I'll do this just in case anybody's interested:

moskvich3v1

Your angle of motion looks weird as if the car was flying sideways at 90°. Also I don't like the blurry dirt or what ever it is I can't identify that covers the whole picture.


reinis94
High Res

Pretty good entry there but I neither like the amount of blur, the usual unrealistic looking rain or the default skin you used. Also it looks stupid with the head lights folded down. The overall composition though is really nice regarding colours and contrasts.


shaun463
High Res

The edited front doesn't make it look like a Delta and the only other edit I can spot is the blur. This is not much of an effort, sorry.


nikopdr
High Res

Most of all that's a weird lighting situation. Sky is too dark for day, too bright for a night and too blue for dawn/dusk. Most effects look unrealistic. I like how you tried to light up the rain drops in front of the lamps (which again I don't know why they don't include the standard head lights) but also that is done unrealistic. Also there are left some artefacts from copy&paste. Overall I thought you can to better edits.


hazaky
High Res

Basically this is a pretty good entry, too. From what I see the car is cut out not too accurately but the major "fault" for me is that it isn't really focused that much on the motion of the car. The picture is very static.


e2mustang
High Res

Seems to be a pretty spotless edit apart from the colour of the glowing brake disc. Again though this is a picture that suffers from a quite static impression. The car takes a very big space on the picture so there's not much seen from the motion.

JazzOn
High Res

In contrast this again looks a bit too dynamic for my taste.^^ If it intended to show a camera going as fast as the car by its side it would be if things were less blurred the farther they are away. If it was intended to show a static camera following the car by turning than the upper and bottom parts of the picture should be blurred in some bent shape. Whether it is the dust looks too static.


brandons48
High Res

This is made quite good although the lights seem a bit unreal. However the debate about "Use only your own work" has changed my opinion. This competition aims to let LFS look as realistic as possible, replacing parts of LFS to achieve that is invalid.


Taavi(EST)
High Res

The wheels don't really fit in the car especially in the back otherwise that looks pretty neat. Though see above.


Silverracer
High Res

Pretty spotless picture there apart from the lighting of the FXO that doesn't really fit the rest. Also see my comment on brandons48's entry.


Furiously-Fast
High Res

Again a pretty clean picture apart from the dust/dirt I miss on the car especially on the back. Also see my comment on brandons48's entry.


TuomasH
High Res

This is also very nicely done and I like to see my skin used by the way.^^ What spoilt it for me is that this skin/livery has not much to do with Audi, Group B or driving through puddles. Also see my comment on brandons48's entry.


skiper
High Res

Your picture is of high quality. Either way you replicated the snow thrown away very good or you covered very well that you took that snow from the original picture. Position of the car and the lighting used fit the surrounding good. Though see my comment on brandons48's entry.



DK_USA
High Res

The dust is not bad but everything else is. The blur chosen is neither very effective nor applied very good, the added lamps on the LX are blurred for appearantly no intended reason and most of all the WRC sign on your plate has not much to do with RWD roadsters or close races of at least three cars.


BOSCHO
High Res

I have no idea what you did to the shape of the RB4 but it looks very strange. Also the combination of lighting up, then darken down the front again looks bad plus see my comment on brandons48's entry.


JO53PHS
High Res

One of my few favorites this round. It followed the theme and has just a few minor mistakes (still a bit blur at the B- and C-pillar and at the front splitter, too little blur on the front tyre). It's quite simple but quite good too.^^


macsy
High Res

Another one of the few entries I favorized. The overall look is very artistic and though the background fits very nice please have a look at my comment on brandons48's entry. Also the motion blur would not have been my choice. It doesn't suit for neither a static camera turning around to follow the car nor for a camera moving parallel to the car.

Quote from kiste :

I thought the same that this is a little bit of brawngp but think only the sideshapes. rest of it are only some decals. i dont like that much.

In fact any graphic design seen from the side view is a more or less accurate copy of the Brawn GP livery. Even the colors scheme is the quite the same (white with black and a very bright colour).

I will eventually make it but I need bigger pictures. I can't guess all the little sponsors.

Edit: Pick one of the many different versions of this livery, please. One has a big "H&R" logo on the door, another one with "GIESSEN" at the same place, again there's another one with "SWR" standing there and so on.

Whether you take this or that one, make sure you post pictures here shot from as many different angles in the biggest possible resolutions.

It's the simple effect of having something built around a reason and not built around looking good. The livery is nice I think, the nose confuses me, but I still like it anyway, something about it is very sex.

I was made up to see the return of Gio the BTCC

I've been looking on and off during the close season to see if there was word of him driving in WTCC but didn't find anything, hadn't checked the sites this week so to when I looked at the BTCC site yesterday morning and saw the news I was happy

I hope Uniq do/can keep him driving for the whole championship.

Now to start work on a skin for the FXO to mimic the Uniq 'livery' - which is mainly sponsor logos, LOL

Very nice. New livery is hot IMO.

Cant wait to see PUG put back into their place where they belong.

wtf @ livery

V8 Supercars Holden Racing Team 2010 livery replicas onto FXR. Was challenging this one with the FXR not having a front grill i had to alternate the livery a bit. I've also replicated their race suit (sorta). Enjoy

GT-R Spec V on the ring - pro physics, S2 tyres, ABS=1 etc, no aids
Although I don't think these physics are like Time Trail, somewhere inbetween Prologue and TT as this demo is an older build. S2 tyres are still pretty grippy though, sorta like semi-slick sport tyres

GT-R was probably one of the better sounding/replicated cars in Prologue. The one shown here seems to sound different to what I hear when I'm playing it in Prologue. This one is a Spec V though, but I don't think that would change the sound too much?

Also a tuned TVR Tuscan - might be a hint of livery editor there. Union jack flag, extensive mods - with left side outlet exhausts, rims, Goodyear tyres, brakes, wing, and body work
LOL and the funky rear brake lights...

PS! There is no such team(well there might be, but this isn't a team skin)

A fictional livery for something you'd see on 24 hours of Nordschleife.

1024


2048

Made a skin based on this:http://www.imagerocket.net/pho ... 9739725_Jim_Beam_copy.jpg Dont no if its a real livery but made the skin based on it!
this is my first replica!

what do u think!?

Yes, yes. The Polizia has got a Lambo. But what we actually see on the road are lots of Alfa 156/159s, an incredible amount of Puntos and Stilos and that's it.

But actually those cars look quite sexy with the Polizia and Carabinieri livery
(At least, the Alfas. A Punto is still a Punto, after all).

Kyoto livery and test car as stated...

Livery done to the correct dimensions
