I’ll be waiting for the shell 962!

Not long now. The shapes have all been done, just the decals to go.

daan · Apr 24, 2019

And finally done. Folk kept interrupting me today!

It was good to finally get to put my favourite 962 livery, Shell Dunlop, on the actual car, (almost anyway. It needs a langheck...) There are a few awkward shapes on the car, but it was fairly straightforward. I had to make another few logos for this. I was happy enough to leave some off when I did the 911, 919 and Cayman, but the 962 deserved every single decal, which I think it got!

It is also a bit odd that every single Shell logo is a san-serif font, yet this livery quite clearly uses a serif font. I was unable to find it anywhere else, so I had to make it up but I think it looks fairly accurate.

And a shot of the whole family.

That first photo is incredible. I thought it was the real car for reference until I saw the gt logo. Amazing! :cheers:

Quality livery again mate, definitely my first choice for the Porsche now.

Excellent work Daan. How did you manage to get 4 cars in that last shot?

No, it's still 3.

This is the one on the GTS website, and there's another without the 911 but with the Cayman. I just merged them together on my PC.

Ah, like it.

TheProRacer · May 2, 2019

Dear lord, man. Every single one of these look absolutely incredible. Please keep up the great work. Like these look so good that any photo you take in the game will look real right off the bat.

I've updated the Blancpain 78 Barwell Huracan, and finished the 77 Vodafone Huracan.

👍👍👍 (We need a clapping hands smiley)

Superb mate. Very apt & well thought out. Love the first picture, made me laugh.

Got to see it live 50 years ago. Dad woke me up & we watched it together... But I was only 2 & don't remember a damn moment of it. Nuts! :banghead:

Anyway, 3 clapping smileys & a bunch of these, :cheers:

I had put Chris Hodgett's BTCC livery on the Trueno and new Supra, but I've just put it on the Levin, as that's most like the real car.

I love your work, however when I try to add your Oor Wullie livery my Atenza it only shows the default livery. All other liveries show fine with all other cars. Is there anything I can do to rectify this problem ?

Are you sure you’re using the Gr.3 Atenza and not the Gr.4?

ArtfulRogue · Aug 30, 2019

Yeah, Gr.3 Atenza, I’ve used various other liveries on it which all work ok. The only one that doesn’t show is the Oor Wullie one.

I'm in the process of making these 2 new British GT Mercs, but I'm having difficulty selecting a colour. I've only looked at the green one so far and none of the chrome or candy metallics are right (to my eyes anyway.) Any suggestions? It's currently on G6 Candy Metallic.

I’ve noticed these two beauties too.

Why not use a fluo pink/green with a 10% or 20% transparent decal over it to alter the tint?

I’m still copying the update so I won’t be able to try tonight.

D-Max · Dec 19, 2019

Try g4 fluorescent with a 50% tint (I started with 25% and duplicated). I’ve done a similar colour scheme

Indeed. G4 Fluo + 3x25% for me, pretty close :

OK, err, how do I do the tint thing? :dopey:

I've never used transparencies before.

In Inkscape, under the values for RGB you can set the opacity.

If you create a black square with a lower opacity (for example 50 instead of 255), you can alter the tint of the base colour without loosing too much of the chrome, flakes or fluo effects.

It even works to mix gloss and matte effects but the results are not always convincing.

daan · Dec 19, 2019

Still wasn't that happy with any of the Flouro/Chrome paints so I used the normal palette and came up with these. I'm happier with these ones.

Cytoria · Dec 19, 2019

Top work!

Leaving this here, just in case

Now that the British GT has had their media day, I now know what the back of the 69 Ram Racing Mercedes looks like so I've updated it. There's a couple of slight design changes and a few new sponsors too. There was no sign of the 6 though.
