#WeRaceAsOne Porsche 992 GT3 R || ACC Custom Livery

Back at the start of the year, which now feels like ages ago, I uploaded my #WeRaceAsOne Porsche livery (linked below). This was done as an act of protest against a new rule the FIA published in the rulebook, preventing drivers from speaking up about injustices. I picked the FIAs own slogan of inclusivity as a subject, aiming to point out the hypocrisy of the FIA. You can read my full motivation in the post linked below. Well, now I got commissioned to make a similar livery for the new...

ACC player counts in review: November 2023

We’ve arrived at already the final month of 2023, December. This means it’s time to look at the penultimate month, November. What has the past month brought for Assetto Corsa Competizione’s (ACC) player activity? Were people flocking back to their sim rigs now that the days are running shorter and – more importantly – colder? That is what we will explore in this post as we dive into the numbers set by November 2023! A short TL;DR in advance: In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since...

LSM Racing Ferrari 296 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

When making commissions, it is not about what the creator likes, it is about what the customer likes. And this customer had a skateboard deck with a skull design they wanted me to feature prominently on the livery. And that is exactly what I did, even if it wouldn’t be my personal choice. With the same love and care I make all my liveries. However, before I could do so, I had to recreate a usable version of the design to feature on the car. Luckily, I’ve become pretty handy...

Team Salzburg Porsche 992 Cup || ACC Custom Livery

I love Porsche’s classic liveries, and apparently at least a few of you guys do too. At least, according to my data. So it came as no surprise that I received a request to port my Team Salzburg livery, which I made for the Porsche 992 GT3 R, to the Porsche 992 Cup car. You can read more about the history of the original Team Salzburg livery (and get the livery I made prior) at the link below. For this iteration of the livery, I went a bit further in...

WIAWIS Lexus RC F GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

When you make custom liveries on commission, you sometimes get requests from unexpected directions. It al depends on the interests of the person requesting the commission. And this person’s interests? Professional archery. The subject: the Lexus RC F GT3, a car for which I hadn’t made a livery in a long time. Archery on the other hand is a topic I don’t know that much about, although I did watch it at the Tokyo Olympics. Fortunately for me, making a livery themed around archery was, for me, mostly about using...

KVDS Racing Porsche 992 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

Some liveries are born out of pure inspiration. Others require more hard work. The end result can in both cases still be a banger of livery. Like this Porsche, I made for KVDS from Belgium. Their prompt was not that simple. They wanted a green with white livery, including blue accents. The green was meant to represent Ireland, their favourite country to visit on holidays. They also wanted me to include an angular pattern not unlike the design on the tailfin of Etihad Airways aeroplanes. They also noted that they...

ACC player counts in review: October 2023

The first full month of Autumn has finished. What has the past month brought for Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) in terms of player activity? Were people flocking back to their sim rigs now that the days are running shorter and – more importantly – colder? That is what we will try to find out in this post as we dive into the numbers set by October 2023! A short TL;DR in advance: In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts...

Coca-Cola No Sugar Ferrari 296 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

Sometimes, making a livery seems like an insurmountable task. But, once you start thinking strategically about how you want to tackle making it, it is all of a sudden not that hard. This is not just true for making liveries but for most things in life. This livery (as pictured below), commissioned to me, was one of those. At first glance, it seems like a very difficult design. But once you understand how it is done, it was fairly straightforward to create. The only thing that added some difficulty, was...

Roberts Racing Porsche 992 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

I’ve been making liveries on commission for over a year now, so it is no surprise that I keep getting more and more return customers. People who have been happy with my work in the past and who want more. Either a new livery, or their previous livery ported to a different car against a reduced rate. Since I already have an idea of what the livery should look like, and it is only a matter of making it fit with the car’s bodywork, I spend less time coming up...

Parry Martini Porsche 992 Cup || ACC Custom Livery

Martini liveries are a staple in modern and historic racing. Formula 1, Sportscars/Endurance, Rally, even the GT World Challenge have had iterations of Martini’s iconic racing liveries. So far, I hadn’t made any Martini-inspired liveries myself. But as this post proves, all that has changed thanks to a recent commission. The request was to make a Martini livery for the Porsche 992 CUP-car, while taking the GPX Martnii livery from 2021’s GT World Challenge (as pictured below) as an example. And so I did. I give it my own twist...
