Here's a quick skin I did for my buddy Marc at MarcusMichaelDesigns using his company logo.
...Maybe I can ask him for a sponsorship?

OK, It's not just for LFS, but I do enjoy watching the streetlights dim when I power up

Here's my latest feeble attempt at creating metallic "metal flake" paints for skinning. So far, I've only gotten somewhat realistic results at 2048 res.

Quote from Greboth :

The black looks ok, he red seems a bit flakey as said above.
Also on the rear wing is the momo supopsed to be upside down?
Nice skins though, i feel i shoulud try and figoure out how do make metallic looking skins.

Your right about the MOMO logo. I originally intended for it to be seen from behind the car, but now I realize that because of the wing angle, you can't see it from there. I just turned it around, and it looks much better.

That a komatsu? or a CAT (my favourite)?

It's a Komatsu HP465 tier 3

Quote from RasKK :

trucks would be really really funny, and as not every game has them, i think they are something that lfs should go for

The bigger, the funnier. Show me a game that has these bad boys.
Forget about chicanes- just keep going straight

Quote from MAGGOT :

look pretty good I think you need to make the metal flakes smaller (or just use a higher resolution) and maybe add in a gradient overlay to get a more metallic look though.

Getting the metallic flakes smaller was always my biggest problem- the textures in PSP only go so small, and I have to layer several of them at different angles to "randomize" them so there isn't a noticable pattern. I chose not to add a linear gradient because under dynamic lighting it might look a little strange.
Your tip worked really well, though- I didn't realize I could skin at higher res than 1024. Here's a FOX at 2048x2048

A little experiment I've been trying using layered textures in PSP to create metallic "metal flake" paints. Some of my latest ones have come out better, but I still like these. The black one is cool- kinda has a '70's Lotus "John Player Special" feel. Once I get the layering formula down (no pun intended):rolleyes: I'll post the merged layer files in a jpg format

Here's my skin for the MRT. It looks SO much better sitting still.
When it moves, I have the tendancy to crash it. Not so pretty then...
