Great to have you back @syntex123 and congratulations on your new arrival!!
Wow, i have no words where these designs are heading Now I have to say I have the 3rd best Ford GT in the contest
May I borrow two minutes of your time ?
I wanted to do a tribute livery to GTPlanet and to all the GT series. I've played GT since the first opus, and I've read GTPlanet for a while, but I've registrered here when Gran Turismo 4 came out in 2005. The opening video was one of the best of all times and it still gives me goosebumps today.
As an american car, the Ford GT was the nicest choice to celebrate the origin of the site and its founder, and the fact that Polyphony choose to bring the LM Spec II back to GT Sport was also a mark of the special and iconic nature of this car. I didn't wanted to do a replica of the original livery, because just like @Raphaele , I felt in love with the raw texture of the test car. All the "black" which appears on my livery is the carbon fiber of the body. I tried to emphase the lines of the car with gloss white panels and thin blue and red accents juste like the colours of the banner. I tried to keep the car Sport Mode friendly but the big number in the middle of the door was very restrictive so I gave up.
The livery is not shared yet as the game loads it blank, so I'll try to do that later. The matching suit and helmet are shared, though.
PS : I've planned to do an extended version of the video with the full song, featuring all the previous LEC winners, but I underestimated the time to shot, create and edit 26 video clips, so that will come a bit later...
Comrade on split color

OK, I was about to ask but it's OK I get it!P.I.T.A
Hey guys! I'm back. It's really touching that you guys still think of me. Haha. I missed you guys, really. It's good to be back. Thanks to all of you for everything. I owe y'all big time.
Not to go too deep off topic, but for those of you who know (and those of you who don't): I'm now a dad to a beautiful baby boy, who's already four months(or, he will be in two days)! It's been a hard few months, becoming a dad really takes a toll. But it's so giving. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love being a dad.
But it meant I had to push GT and GTP away for a while. Sorry about that. I will do my best to pop in more often, you guys are my family too!
Anyway, here is my surprise entry. Nothing flashy, I didn't have time to come up with my own design, but I tweaked an existing one to fit the theme.
FINAL ENTRY
Man I wish I could be at the PS more often sometimes but university (meh) and my gf (not bad ) take away all my time I can only ever get to it on some weekends but then often rather drive a little instead of messing in the editor. However I‘m not entirely gone and if there are competitions I really want to attend I will32 entries and 32 hours left but some usual names are not here yet.
Mine is ready, I just need to do the presentation (and I hope to find the time to enter the LEC #27 too).
Where are @Teal , @Strax , @JKcreativeworks , @ghostrider135 , @D-Max , @daan , @Akwaaba , @MatskiMonk , @Nuschel01 , @Panoz , @ThePotatoKing , @danhighway , @NBDESIGNZ , @MrWaflz55 , @Stiggy , @anthaliscious ?
Nobody’s forced, but I hope you’ll come with something!

Nooooooo  not another Ford GT!@Cytoria - Magnificent job, the liveries, the video… no words for it, just one: RESPECT!
Now I am looking forward the the Ford GT @JKcreativeworks will come up with.
GTPlanet/Haas #93 Super GT GT300 entry
Wow, i have no words where these designs are heading Now I have to say I have the 3rd best Ford GT in the contest
I remember this opening scene so well and the song is a true GT anthem - Moon over the Castle. And you've made great job recreating the turntable part of it.
With the LEC #27 poll to create, and with more than 35 entries for this one, it is unlikely that I can launch the poll tomorrow. So I think it won’t hurt anyone if you have one more day to do something.This is just another level - awesome!
Thanks for the reminders @Cytoria - but by the time I had an idea for a livery to create, I've run out of time to make it!
(it is fast approaching 1:00am (local time) and I have to be up at 6:00 to got to work.
Absolutely stunning. Beautiful work mate
