This week's theme as brought to you by CCShaft7:

" I thought with the timing of this competition it would be fitting to pay a tribute to the late great Sir Jack Brabham who recently passed. The only man to win his own drivers' and constructor's championship in the same year. A legend. I found I was very limited to what I could choose from GT6 but felt that in at least 'looks' wise that the Light Car Company Rocket '07 would suit as its design aesthetically is loosely based around the Cooper's that Sir Jack raced in the late 50's as well as other cars from that era. As this is a 2.0 there is also scope to try and re-create the mood and feeling of those bygone days."


CAR: Light Car Company Rocket '07.
LOCATION:Cote D'Azur (Monaco).
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: No static shots...no other cars unless its other LCC Rockets.

  • Preview images can not exceed 500 pixels in either direction.

This should be a good one. Love the theme mate. 👍 Hard track to make pretty though, I wish they'd remake that one it would be awesome.
 
This is a very fitting theme. I was originally hoping someone would do FGT at Indy for the 500, but this Jack Brabham tribute is perfect and I love that it's challenging us with a different style of editing. I'm getting mine right now :cheers:
 
Beautiful images thus far guys :drool: ....really feeling that racing vintage, superb efforts 👍


@VictrolaTime ..... as nice as your entry is, it may be infringing one or two of the rules ie: your border/framing. I'll leave this one for @Nato_777 to scrutinise but this may be your main issue -

  • Add shapes or objects from outside of GT6, signatures excepted.
  • "Creative cropping". The main "image" must be four-sided, with 90-degree, upright corners.
Still plenty of time for a change or adjustment though ;)
