First render, of my private (yes, all my skins are private. I can't deal with it!) drag XRG. The background of the render is really cr*p, and the render was made on the Ready-to-Render kit (10/10 for it ), but, I think it was worth the try. XD

If I didn't suck a lot I would take the chance.

(Yeah, still have to finish the Surtees '64 Ferrari and the Aston Martin... xP)

There is already some pace/safety cars already made on Master Skinnerz, but due server changes, they are currently 404. If you want this one, exactly the F1 version, someone here, I guess, will help you out, it's not that complicated to make one.

Quote from rix0n :

Am I right in guessing that if i skin a suit, people online will only see THEIR version of SUIT_.jpg anyway so they won't see mine?

Good dig! LOL

Actually, yes, because the file is the same, so they will see their SUIT_.jpg and you will see yours. And SUIT_.jpg is not a real "skin", because it is like a default file, and you can't download/put/aquire (etc.) additional suit files.

Quote from macsy :

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.

It's kinda like that. It's inspired on the 1964 NART Ferrari, from John Surtees, but I took it a little "outta" the theme. I'll post this one, then I'll do the accurate version of the car. I'm not pushing so hard now on skins, because I can't do it. GIMP is a little poor, and this is all new, but I hope soon I'll be doing better jobs.

If I find some time in this week, I'll finish it.

The guys mostly use .psd layered images, so it's easy to place em correctly and edit properly, but like, this Starion made by Squalo, it's a .png, already with transparency, just for paste and use. It depends from who made it.

Actually, he can't, and you can. He is a Demo Racer, and may not have the skins slots for upload (unless he paid for it).

Maybe, try to resize the skin for 1024x1024 and try to upload again. =D

Well, there is out there lot's of bodykits, some top job, others bad work, but if you search, you will find some. Usually for XRT (can be converted for XRG), people make Silvias and AE86, but for other cars, such FZ5, they make Ferraris and Porsches.

Dude, someday i'll do liveries like this one... Great job, simply perfect! I don't like the orange with the gold details, but the skin is clean and nice.

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...

Quote from SharkBite :

Hi guys,

This might look like a silly question for some of you, but for my FXO and for my FZ5 i've got a skin of The Punisher. Now i'm searching for one for my UFR but i cannot find it on this forum. Any ideas if that one already excists? If not, does somebody feel like making one?

Try the "Search" feature here, or do a request on the respective area. If it's only the skull thing, you coulda do it yourself, get a GIMP, get the stretching values, the Pro Kit, get the default skin and set as multiply (if the skin is black, won't do much progress applying shadowing in the skin) and done, good stuff made. And plus, you got S2, can upload the skin, then good play.

Quote from JazzOn :

For what? To be honest, I doubt you did this. (like some other skins as well)

Edit: I doubt it, but whatever... nevermind

RFactor Ctrl+C Ctrl+V.

And phawin is still making lots of topics, while there is the finished skins topics to post there.

Quote from logitekg25 :

pretty nice skin, and be sure to buy the game so you can see it in game

Already talked with some friends of mine to buy for me... got the money, the will, but the credit card lacks.

For me S1 is enough, in fact. I'm very bad driver, I like the Banger Rallycross and the Cruise servers on Demo, enough for me.

You shoulda have posted in the Finished Skins > XR Skins, and could gives us a preview of the in-game skin, takes too much to take the .dds file and see the skin.

I know I should not post this here, but soon soon I'll release this one... A pity that I won't use it, still haven't found a credit card... =/

Quote from macsy :

Thanks. I shared the dirt layer with the guys at L4P, and don't think I'll publish it for the general audience. But it's really not that hard making a dirt layer, after all, even I could do it! Anyway, good luck with your future skins, the jack skin was pretty cool!

Oh, finally someone saw it! Thanks!

Quote from macsy :

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment and promotion, but please remove the links. They go directly to the skin, which doesn't improve the download count. Also, I think shaun saw my skin, but it isn't exactly same as Clarkson's.

Link to my original post and downloads

Done that.
Also, are you going to publish this dirt layer, or already have done it? Looked for it here and in Master Skinnerz, and nothing. The dirt layer made by brandons48 don't fit properly on XRG, like he claims it fits.

Quote from shaun463 :

Anyone up for making a high-res version of Clarkson's Starion, like the cracker posted?

Also, if duKe see this, top job, 10/10!

A pity that I couldn't install postscript for GIMP. That site is just some kind of unreachable heaven.

Quote from Bean0 :

I have now found the pattern I knew existed.
Will throw something together tonight.

Wonder where you took it. Maybe some hardcore fan of surf who changes his name by night and becomes a transsexual deviant. LOL

Quote from RMZ125 :

PhotoFiltre is a quick and easy skinning program. I just started using it and i love it.

I used Photofiltre combined with Paint.net for like a year (not here on LFS, I don't wanna hurt everyone's eyes with that "Fill+White Pixels" skins), and I'm totally convinced and sure that GIMP worth the sacrifice of learning it. Seriously.

It is good for a start on graphics editing, because it have transparent and mask functions, but if I could start with GIMP earlier, I would be a happier man. XD

ähhh bull S***

Here, here, aaaand here.

Just finished it, http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1410755#post1410755

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!
