I'd like to note that it seems to me your red, macsy, is more spot on. Maybe its because of different reflection texture!? Or maybe its just me... im a sucker for everything that's vibrant. Oranje FTW

PS: have to agree with 5tag. Nice attention for detail and great work.

can't help much, but the yellow one on the rear is Pennzoil
The ebbro on the front can be repainted. I could do that if no-one got it.

PS: as for the logo in the numberplate. Maybe it has something to do with a racing series in Rfactor. There is no need to promote it in LFS you could bring lfs logo again in here.

PPS: As for the alpinestars skins. maybe you could try again. You still have the original file?
If so, do the following:

Delete the logos and paste a fresh copy of them onto the skin - re-re-re-sizing hurts the quality and sharpness of the decals. The rally art is fine i guess, althouh it gets cut by the bodykit. Maybe replace it somewhere else or leave it out. A better version of the alpinestar logo can also be found at bestbrands.com

Then rotate each one like 1,0 degree or so, to make them following the car shape. Note: the alpinestars logo can actuall kept straight. I only mean the little logos/decals like Brembo, Momo, michelin.

Squeeze them and move them where they belong. Watch out that you don't find them on the wheel arches. You know the skin viewer tool?

lol, come again?

nice technical tut there, of which i barely understood a thing. I made these 'guide templates' to make skinning easier not more complicated

Edit: hehe, thx 5tag

Quote from jrd.racer :

... im open to all critism!

glad you said that

First of all its not bad, but has some mistakes. The logos are too big and badly placed. They overlap on the wheel arches or the bodykit. Make them smaller and it will fit. Doing a conversion of a design to another car, you need to make adjustments sometimes, because of a different shape.

Further it seems you didn't understand yet, what the stretching is all about. Those 2 sponsors you squeezed and then rotated, on the rear, are now totally morphed.
The stretching phenomenon appears, because the skin will be stretched when applyed on the car model ingame. The raw skin (parts), are squeezed. When putting Logos (or graphics, pics, whatever) you need to squeeze after you rotated them. Btw, the Castrol logo on the front does not need to be changed. (as can be seen in my guide It's a Zero, so, no streching on the part of the skin.)

Next, is the white outline on the 'alpinestars'. Was that intention? It needs to be thicker, if that was your intention. The original does not have an outline. Also the original body color is dark grey painted. With this difference in colortone between body paint and logo, you'd not need the outline.

I like the LFS logo you brought in, but im not so keen on that 'quickshift'. A more "defined" font/effect would look overall better + it's too big. It gets cut by the window

At last, clean you car! It's fkn dirty

Hope this helps.

PS: did you made that skin in 1024x1024 resolution?

Done (thx Sponge)

Sponsors are a bit random, but looks good I'd say.

You can run, but you can't hide

haha, you went mad there

Send me the psd if you can be bothered, just for the sake of playing.

thats pretty nice actually


Do some stars on the top and so and you have a nice helmet.

You're quite an smartass, huh cenzor?

The problem with this design is, that its good look comes from the roundness, which does not exist in the LFS helmet model

Find more pics and do some copy and paste. This willl look good too, online.

Alright then, it's official! I do have the time.. you need to set priorities in life... of what you do right

Im gonna use this Thread for WIP funtion, because its a reasonable bump and i want to support such behavior.

Anyway, Sponge, what pics do you have? I found these (attachment) from a virtual replica. Do you have others too, because i noticed perhaps 2 versions of the pain-job!? (airbox) The only RL photos are very small + often with different sponsors.

For now i'm going for the symetric one.

This looks like an photo of a real car so it was driven like this? Someone knows?

Edit: totally forgot.. added a WIP screeny

hmm well .. that different to the one that arai america has listed (was the first i found)

Edit: What you wnat is the edwards replica http://www.motosupply.com/inde ... 5cd06bb09ea1db5c6f9d1d1c1

Maybe this info helps by finding more pics

hope, i guess.

I'd like to apologies for the attack on your grammar... it isn't that bad really.. there are worse people

But the helmet picture.... What was so hard for you to link to an image?

Anyway, i've seen it and its a tough one! Your post, BTW, doesn't contain a pic. (at least nothing is loading for me here.)

hehehe,

Tbh i kinda started something, but didnt spend that much on it yet. I just wanted to try how it could work, you know. But if you want to, i let you make it

I'd say start from scratch. No offence to the FOX maker, but the skin is stretched (I kinda hate that word already ) The scquares are more rhomboids. Doesn't thouh look bad i want to add

hmm maybe. Who doen't like sarcasm shaked with some irony.

But it wasn't that funny. I hope you're ok. I like your work.

Quote from tinky winky :

your internet connection is probabl shithouse that's why you're complaining.

i couldn't care less what you think, whether i'm right or wrong, you aren't stopping me from posting some screenshots.

I'm fine but what about others? New players, or old players who have been away for a year or so, looking for some nice skins?

And again sadly its not only you. Some random demo racer, who is the first time on an forum, is one thing. A regular poster could do better. Don't you think?

Quote from tinky winky :

new Avenue Lab drift machine...
guys, don't start!





the hood's gonna be changed, looks really bad like that.

Hey man! That looks aaaawwweeesome!!

Do you have hires????

Quote from tinky winky :

3 people complained

only one's who still care about this section then...

Quote :

you are the one saying i can't post my screenshots with my skin in it.

Quote me. I never said that!! All i said is to keep it as links or attachment.

Quote :

and how on earth am i not doing it decently

not only you sadly the conversation just got together since you seemed a reasonably person, but i might be wrong tho'

Quote :

next time i can post 1600x1200 screenshots if you'd really like me to.

I don't mind at all! But keep off the IMG-tags plzzzzz

Quote :

your argument don't make any sense what-so-ever, harden up and stop sooking.

*fixed
You still don't see the point. I can't say anymore then what i already said. Fortunatly these are forum post, so you can re-read them.. again, again and again.. till you really understand.

Quote from Sponge :

(maybe i can give it a go..)

thats what i've thought too

Anyway, right, Tom has quite some stuff to do. All the twirly red squares, especially the engine cover

I like the union jack flag on the scoop. The rearwing, is boring, but the red color tone is spot on i think, Tom. The blue should be darker, tho.

This will be a good replica, i can tell

Sponge, do you know, has it been done?

E: found the FOX, but no Fo8 it seems.

ahh well... Thanks a lot for the nice comments, guys

I appreciate it.

Quote from flymike91 :

TW I think you should post as many screenshots of private skins as you like. Don't let some cheese-eating surrender monkey tell you what you can and cannot do, thats the moderator's job.

yeah, tell him ! ... wait...

PS: FYI, fm, no-one said he can't post screenshots of his "private" skins. It just would be appreciated if he would do it decently.

But i didn't expect that a self-centred, ignorant donkey understand that
