I don’t actively paint at the moment, will resume when i buy my next Forza game. I just wanted somewhere to post all my paints and it seems quiet enough round here i won’t be a disturbance. Been reading the legacy forums, got all nostalgic actually enjoyed my old thread. My apologies to the current painters, hope your threads jump this pretty quick.
Will slowly put up pics, maybe some explanations later…
Thanks MFbigfoot and welcome to my new thread.
FA, hoping some of these pics encourages you to paint another cracking Le Mans replica. Did you see this years art car?
Cheers Eats, your fantasy paints have a replica vibe, they look like something real you would see in a specialty car magazine.
MD, i know you drive my cars and glad you found my new thread.
Hey Gdub, there will be new stuff one day, maybe in a different section?
Hi mate. To be honest, it is only pictures like these that keep me inspired to start new replica’s. Busy with a great new LM replica, but proper research took some time on this one and wife still cost me some choclates]. Will post picture [hopefully] soon. In the meantime I tried a fantasy paint inspired by some awesome paints from PS3 EATER. Will post it one day when my skill level on fantasy paint becomes worthwhile.
Keep posting pictures please - some of us need some direction. PS. This year’s art car you’re referring to - can I view it somewhere ?
All the important pictures are up now, not sure whether to bore you all with all the slightly different L.E.'s and variants or not. Probably will, hehe.
F.A., glad you’re still at it in the paint booth. You need to put up some pics in your thread, even wip’s! It was the Prospeed #75 Porsche that did the “Celtic Art”. Too bad it would be a layer hog in FM4 and no Porsches in FM5. Here’s a link to their gallery http://www.prospeed.be
Kdog, thanks pal! The insect is a wingless wasp that was killed by Ophiocordyceps, the fungus that control the (zombie) victim. It’s what the story behind “The Last of us” game is based on. A bug with a bug you might say. Painted for Deadlights Fright Night 2013, it placed 2nd. Well pleased.
Thankyou both for the kind words, if there is anything you would like, just ask.
Ya mate, have put a few wip’s together, but spending time now on putting various vinyls and logos together for those, but geeeee, that’s really taking plenty of time. Enjoy it though - give me time to work on my skills and explore a bit.
PS I had a look at the Celic Art Porsche - really nice, but agreed on the layer hog in FM4.
Yeah, i did all my logo’s myself, kinda why the reps are either Denso Toyotas or Silky Jags. I wanted to paint them and other Group C’s too, but it was easier to put more of them together than start, say, a 962 from scratch. The logo’s were time consuming and i am proud of them, but i’m even prouder of Tiger Beer, Tony, the N-gage and my bug, because each one was a progressive (and successfully completed!) step.
