My choice right now would be this; I realized the car should be quite modern so that if we add the URL (are we allowed to?) or logo, it doesn't look out of place :nods:

 

Mate I asked for a screenshot, not a photo :cheeky:

 

 

That suits me fine looks-wise. My only other considerations were 'how is it to drive', and 'how well represented will it be in the game (career)?' i.e. trying to pick a car that a lot of players out there will use because it's great fun or because it's a logical car to pick for the career or online races being competitive.

 

Sorry I can't do much on this today. Will have to get working on the weekend on it. If others want to create PSD files for the sponsors (grahams goat washing, squirrel mafia solutions, etc) that would help us immensely.

 

we can't have a URL (.net) but we can still have the turboduck name and logo as it appears top-left of the page

If you've got time, try a few different shades of those colours perhaps (even if you quickly use mspaint) so we can see what works and what doesn't. I'm guessing there will be some sort of fade or gradient effect? We could also separate the different colours with a line/pintstripe between them. Plus other decals/shapes, etc.

I think the GT4-class is pretty popular as it's supposedly fun to drive, also it's probably a starting class in the career mode :nods:

These are the cars with downloadable paint templates.

 

If I'm not mistaken, the BMW 320 that's just been added is the old BTCC car? Any interest there? Otherwise I'm going to make a rough start on the RUF RGT-8

 

If we're struggling to get logos and other stuff to fill the car, then maybe we resort to painting a track day car with less panels

So the basic painting seems fairly easy

 

Just have to colour in between the lines

Then copy, flip and align on a new layer, and add the (tiny) turboduck logo

Then hide the wireframe layer, save as TGA, then use a free apps that converts to DDS

 

And you end up with an unplanned cool effect :p

Then remember that you rotated the template 90 degrees to make painting easier, then repeat recent steps after rotating it back to normal.

Then rotate the image by another 180 degrees and repeat

Then scratch your head and try making sure all the layer sizes match the image, and triple check the rotation matches the original template

Then start from scratch and quickly try again without rotating or flipping anything

Then give up and ask for help

Yeah something about the shape of the RUF when I was watching that Sound trailer struck a chord with me, just the shape seems the most similar to our duck logo for reasons I won't try to explain.

 

Turns out the tutorial missed out the step in changing that rectangular template to a square resolution image somewhere along the line.

 

Also the only problem with using the turboduck logo colours for the car paint is that part of the turboduck logo will be invisible when placed on top. Still waiting for a vector logo too!

Obviously we can't just use these - but they could be inspiration for our logo (any volunteers to make one?)

 

Which style do you like?

 

 

Serious/professional style

Cartoon style

Creative liberty style

I'm imagining lots of soap suds surrounding most of their body

Just to confirm, before saving to DDS you need to squish the resolution to 4096x4096 (or 2048x2048) for use in game

See, I told ya it was easy. I'm not happy with those exact colours btw

 

@Diablo, did you want to try suggesting HTML colour codes to try there as a base? Keep in mind if they match the turboduck logo exactly then that part of the tduck logo will be invisible. (Waiting for larger/vector logo too). Also you have a PM @ WMD forums.

 

I may have to do a 'paint by numbers' livery to see where it all maps out better
