Hello all!
So, with the Hot Wheels pack dropping in a few minutes’ time, I figured I’d share out some Hot Wheels replica liveries I have made over the past that closely resemble the toy models that I have in my collection from when I was younger and up to now when I come across a cool looking livery to try out. Would make sense to race the cars we have on the Hot Wheels orange tracks to match the very toys that have done it in many homes across the globe.
I’m still a bit of a novice at making liveries, so I hope these don;t look utterly terrible, but I’ll let you all be the judge for that.
So to start off with, here is one of the first replicas I did, using a Lotus Esprit model I got when I was a young lad in the early 00s:
File Name: HW Esprit
Gamertag/Creator: RECEPTOR 17
And this is the model in question:
Next is one I’m rather proud of I worked on initially in FM5, which is a replica of a Saleen S7 Hot Wheels die-cast I have from around the same time as the Esprit above:
And here’s the toy itself to compare:
File Name: HW Saleen S7
Gamertag/Creator: RECEPTOR 17
Next is a more recent creation, which is a replica of a Hot Wheels’ “Track Aces/Stars” version of the Subaru Impreza from 2003:
And here’s the model I own of it:
File Name: Track Stars 2007
Gamertag/Creator: RECEPTOR 17
And finally for today, here is a replica of not quite the same car, but close enough with an Aston Martin V12 Vantage S, done up in the livery of a Vantage GT3 Hot Wheels car I own.
And the original itself, unfortunately I haven’t got the talent to make the Hot Wheels logo from scratch just yet, so I left that box blank in FH3 instead of the now gone white Aston Martin logo that was in FM6 for now until I can make one or Forza provide a Hot Wheels universal logo to add:
File Name: HW Vantage GT3
Gamertag/Creator: RECEPTOR 17
And that’s that for now, I’m planning on making a Twin Mill III and Boneshaker replica very soon when the cars are released as I have a model of each to try and replicate (I think one of them is used in Rocket League currently so that’'l be fun to try).
Until then, I hope you like the liveries currently posted and enjoy the racing on the orange loops and jumps from tonight on!
17 out.
