General Rules

  • You are only allowed to enter one livery, you must have made it yourself, and it must not have been entered in a GTS/GT7 LEC before.
  • Chat about the theme is encouraged, but you must follow the entry submission rules below, and please avoid posting other liveries where ever possible.
  • If judgements are needed regarding the suitability of the entry, these will be at the discretion of the member that selected the theme.
  • Standardised entry photos and entry layouts provide a level playing field and the guidelines must be respected.
  • Do not edit your photos.
  • You may be asked to share your livery if shenanigans are suspected.
  • Discussion about the LEC format in general should be taken to this thread: Future of Livery Editor Competitions
  • Blatant disregard for either the rules, or the spirit of the competition may result in your entry being disregarded.
  • The winner gets to nominate the next the theme from the Theme suggestions list, or can nominate a special theme related to a real world event.

Submission Rules
  • Entries should be made in their own post, your entry should contain the elements listed here, no more, no less
  • 1) The opening line should read FINAL ENTRY, and make it Red to help us find them for the poll. ([B][COLOR=rgb(255, 0, 0)]FINAL ENTRY[/COLOR][/B])
  • 2) Two main pictures (Mandatory Pictures), these may not exceed 640 pixels in either direction, but ideally should link to a larger version. See Image Posting below.
  • 3) In spoiler tags ([SPOILER] ... [/SPOILER]) you may include two further Bonus Pictures. These also may not exceed 640 pixels in either direction, and can ideally can link to larger versions.
  • 4) The content of Bonus Pictures might have been specified in the theme, if they have, you must respect the requirements stated - otherwise they can be Scapes, race photos or screencaps from within the livery editor.
  • Nothing else is needed. Explaining your entry is encouraged, but please do so in a second post - this isn't regarded as double-posting by the moderators. Including anything else in your submission post only makes things take longer.

Mandatory Picture Settings
  • Mandatory pictures use pre-defined Scapes.
  • One of your two mandatory pictures must be a front quarter view, the other must be a rear quarter view.
  • Your two mandatory pictures must use either of the following locations (it doesn't matter which location you use for which view), "Pit Lane / Oita - Japan" or "Aomori Museum of Art / Aomori - Japan"

NOTE: if you have previously entered, just go to Scapes > My Library > click your previous entry > Open Scapes > change car to the new entry, refocus and snap a new photo. No need to reposition the camera/car unless its proportions are wildly different.

Image Posting
  • Images must be no bigger than 640 pixels wide or tall, and click through to higher resolution versions.
  • Images should be hosted ideally on GTP, via the Media section. Images hosted by Flickr or similar will also be accepted. Go here for advice on how to do this.
  • Do NOT use the 'Attach Files' function below the reply box when submitting your options.

FINAL ENTRY



Here is my Polo R, a sporty edition of the beloved supermini. I decided to create a design based on the red line in the grill, which now wraps around the car. I also knew that I wanted Polo written as a side stripe of the car, so I found a suitable font and made a custom decal for it. The top stripe in red and the thicker bottom stripe in a dark grey shade.

The car is moderately tuned, with an upgraded turbo, upgraded brakes and sport hard tyres. The spoiler is upgraded as well, but more for the styling than the performance. The car is rated at just over 500 PP. I kept the silencer stock, as I prefer that sound over any of the alternatives.
 
FINAL ENTRY



Once upon a time.. A man named Martin (that's me) had a grand idea to start a fundraiser, a racing series to be hosted here on GTPlanet. I created a lot of one-make liveries, this is one of those cars. I even contacted all the sponsors on it, and asked if it was OK for me to use their logo on the car(one of which was so enthusiastic they actually sent me their logo in vector format, they didn't know I had already made it), in this fundraiser that I wanted to be live streamed. It was back when covid began.

But then, hold on to your hats...came Forza. and announced they would do the same thing. Which made me scrap my idea, which I had spent so many days on planning. But I have circled back to the idea. "One Race" fund run, one car, one race, for the human race. One race one day a month, to raise money for various charitable causes.

But as all my other grand ideas... I doubt I'll ever get around to executing it. I still have all these liveries, waiting to be raced. With a slight change (#playaparttogether to be changed to whatever the new idea would be named, "One Race" is kinda cheesy but I like it), and with a willing commentator/streamer, it could be a fun one.

Thanks to @JKcreativeworks too, because it's basically his GT Sport LEC round that inspired it, and I don't know if he remembers, but he did accept that the Sunday Cup numberplate he made to be used for this fundraiser. But it didn't happen, the cars just gathered dust. I even made a banner for it, with the updated R35 Gr.3 long before we even got it. :lol:
