This car allows so many liveries to be applied, so let's help the community see what's out there. If you have a livery, or you see one that you think is pretty epic, share it here.

I'll start.

I have the Jean Alesi and Alain Prost Ferrari 643 on my profile.

I did an Olivier Panis and Martin Brundle Ligier JS39

And I did a Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard McLaren, but they aren't specific. They're mix of a few years.

I bought all 13 colours and put together a custom race. It needs some tweaking in terms of positions, but this is the best 1990's F1 game I've ever played :D

I did an MP4/5A, an Mp4/7, and an MP4/8 (versions for both drivers for each car)

I know that there is an abundance of these out there, but folks seem to be putting red stripes on white bodies. A little tidbit of trivia, the red should be fluorescent red, not just bright red. Because of TV tech back then, the cars were painted with fluorescent red paint so the proper colours would appear on the TV screen.

For my McLaren liveries, I applied the MP4/4 Red paint chip, though it makes applying the white parts a challenge.

Great work all round,but that Williams looks perfect :bowdown: way better than my effort.

It's quite hard to get good shots of a lot of these older cars, and many different liveries from race to race, combined with non-race show cars in some museums and displays.
Thanks! I still found a few errors on it, but those are fixed now. 😉

It's pretty hard to find good shots of older F1 cars indeed and everytime I look for them, I wonder how we got from these beauties to the monstrosities we have in F1 now. From lean mean 505kg machines to large chunky 798kg ones. Sad development imo.

For sure, saw a 1990 McLaren, 1999 McLaren and 2020 Mercedes at Brooklands and Mercedes Benz world and I was amazed at the size difference! And as for the noise, or lack of it 😭
 
This is not your usual early 90s Williams replica - this is something I've pondering every time I deal with the 1993 F1 season. What if Nigel Mansell stayed at Williams in 1993 and gets to run the Big Red One?

Link to the livery

As a bonus, the second picture is taken at Autopolis, in reference to its plan to have a second Japanese race in the 1993 F1 calendar. The Mugen version of the McLaren is also used instead of the Lamborghini as the latter was only tested very late in the season and Senna's push for its use was for the last two races of the season.

Decided to have a go at the Lotus 107-C, but that weird Lotus logo at the back of the sidepod is not good yet. I do have an idea how to fix it, but spent enough time in the game today. Had them on for this scape, my current Lotus liveries, but took off the logo later and frankly like the livery a lot better without. This wasn't an easy one, imo. Ended up using about 300 decals... 👀

The 107-B is on tomorrow's programme 😁

Edit: Tried to get that weird Lotus logo on the back of the sidepod of the 107-C. What a hassle to get that right. And the end result is nothing to my liking and I like the livery much better without it. Goes for the weird circle on the front too. Whoever thought it was a good idea to put those decals on that way needs to be questioned. I'm leaving both those choices off the livery in my garage. First time ever that I refuse to put some design choices on replica liveries. I'm happy we have that choice in this game 😄
