GT opel Race car

Hey All this is the design I came up with for my Opel I have entered into a race league. (Xbox Racing League on FB) The design is based on sponsorship from a local micro Brewery and their Crosswind pale ale. the Design will be available in my SF, without my driver name and team name on the car.

Driver side opel astra

anyway hope you guys like it. I am not the best designer, but I do my best and like my results. :slight_smile:

Good looking car. Would like to see the plane on the hood bigger, especially as that Puma logo is on the big side.
I’m guessing Puma is the race series sponsor, wouldn’t likely see beer and athletic shoes sponsor the same car!

It’s a nice design*, I just located it and downloaded a copy from your SF.

I think you’ve done well with the layout and at one time would have pointed you in the direction of the race livery section for more feedback - as the guys/ gals over there know there stuff. Things like Koiftt mentioned about sponsor conflicts, or just tips on making custom text - not sure how many people are visiting that part of the forums just now though, so we’ll have to do!

I like the fact you said you like what you do - that’s a great thing, keep on doing that. It’s tempting to paint what you think will be popular or what you believe other people want - paint for yourself, try to push yourself but if a paints not fun any more, move on and do something else. You can always come back to it later if you learn a new trick or just call it done when you’re ready.

Good luck in the monthly comp.

Cheers

*it had the added bonus of being beer related, a subject often close to my heart!

Hey thanks for your opinions and support guys. I took your advice koifft, and enlarged the plane on the hood, reduced the size of the number board, I also made the puma logo smaller and placed in on either side of the windshield and increased the size of the lake of bays logo. I also added some yellow to the vents on the side of the car, front and back. makes a nice touch I think. anyway here is the results of the rework.

and Damme, thanks for getting the Car from my SF, as I said I reworked it a bit and will replace the one up there. I would like you to have this one as well, so if you send me a message on xbox live then I will put it to free so you wont have to pay again. Cheers guys.

Thanks, downloaded and rated again, no worries about the credits - seriously 2k isn’t going to break anyone’s bank - I generally put my designs up for 5k, if you only have to do one race to earn the credits to cover your purchase, it’s in reality nothing compared to the hours the painter has put in to painting the design - so think I think that’s reasonable.

If you do venture down the path of more fantasy work, stop by and show us what you have going on, If I think I can help in some way I will do. Have fun painting and take it easy.

Cheers

Oh yeah, that looks much better with your plane enlarged. Glad it worked out so well.
