Hello all,
Figured I’d stop by and show you some simple stuff I did the past couple days. I’m no professional painter like some of the guys in here who do some seriously amazing and inspirational work. However I do have a passion for realism and a bit of a creative edge, and sometimes think up designs that others may enjoy.
I’ve always had a passion for carbon fiber/kevlar parts on cars, and enjoyed creating interesting setups through custom paint work (usually a bunch of crossed gray lines on a dark pallet) to imitate this in past Forza titles. Ever since FM5 and the introduction of CF/CK paints, it makes things much more realistic and rewarding.
Here are two designs which feature carbon fiber accents now available for download.
*Disclaimer: Some of my designs have license plates/stickers on them which aren’t mine. Obviously, my uploads available to you do not include these features.
First up is the 2009 Ford Focus RS. I have always loved the radical styling on this car and saw an opportunity to take it to the next level. This simple paint gives the car a more aggressive, race-oriented edge by including carbon fiber functional hood vents as well as a carbon fiber hatch. I’ve also uploaded a B class grip/circuit tune for this vehicle; primarily tuned for hot lapping Lime Rock.
Lastly we have the 2012 Ferrari F12berlinetta, easily my favorite modern-day Ferrari. My inspiration for this design comes from the radical Novitec N-Largo F12. This design features a slew of carbon fiber accents, such as a carbon fiber lower front bumper, hood design, fender arches, mirrors, gas cap, rear aero ducts, and inside the rear tail lamp ducts. (Uploaded design does not feature black wheels.)
Well, that’s all for today, I hope you enjoy the designs! If you’d like any colors changed on these designs or have any requests, feel free to contact me.
Regards,
I remember having to make carbon fiber…lol
Liking the Focus… Keep up the good work
Yeah those where the days lol
Good work fella, I like the RS.
Endless stretching of chain lines until they looked like ripples, yep… I remember those days as well.
Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments.
Today I’ve got three additions for those of you who are fans of cars from the Japanese domestic market.
First up is the '98 Toyota Supra RZ. A true JDM classic, the Supra also offers some aggressive kits to further enhance its appearance. For this design, I’ve equipped the car with the JUN front bumper, side skirts and hood, which you’ll need for the design to work, along with a spoiler and rear bumper I like. This design gives the car a full carbon fiber front lip, functional carbon fiber heat extractor vents on the hood, carbon fiber mirrors as well as carbon fiber cooling ducts for the rear brakes. The paintable intercooler on the bumper is also painted a dark gray to give it a realistic look. It’s definitely one of the more wild designs I’ve made. Wheels are not painted black in available design.
Next, we have the '05 Subaru WRX STi. I’ve always loved these cars, and their pedigree as proven rally champions is the inspiration for this design. I went with an aggressive, full-race approach. The design features three piece carbon fiber grill inserts, functional carbon fiber heat extractor vents as well as intercooler scoop on the hood, CF mirrors and door handles (mad weight savings, yo!) as well as a carbon fiber rear bumper valance. You’ll also get a CF front lip through the Forza front bumper (required for design) as well as CF side skirt trim from the Chargespeed side skirts. In order for the design to work correctly, you must equip the Subaru hood (either #1, plain or #2, with rally equipment.)
Lastly we have a Forza Motorsport favorite, the '97 Honda Civic Type R. I remember when they added this car in Forza 4 and all the hype it got! Keeping it simple with this design, which features a full CF front end (hood, fenders, bumper & lip) as well as a CF rear bumper valance. The design is intended to work with the full Chargespeed body kit. Wing is unaffected.
Thanks for checking them out! I’ll again sign off stating that if you’d like any colors changed or vinyls added to current designs, just let me know.
Regards,
