I was watching the 6 hours of Spa-Franchorchamps today, as part of the 2023 World Endurance Championship. As part of the Hypercar line-up, privateers Jota had their private Porsche 963 LMDh entered for the first time. The same 963 LMDh I made previously for the 991 II GT3 R. I had just finished a commission as the race started. However, during the first safety car period, my ADD kicked in and I started hyperfocussing on a new livery, based on this car. As it is quite a simplistic livery, I...
And now for something a little different. Not a post for one livery which had been commissioned. Not two. No, three. Three cars, all of them Ferrari’s, and all of them made for Orion. Actually, the original commission is for four cars. But the Maserati MC20 GT2 isn’t out yet. Orion wanted a black and red livery, inspired by Sean Bull’s fantasy Porsche F1 livery, mixed in with his own logo and a few brands of his own choice. Inspired by Sean’s work, someone I (as an amateur livery designer)...
Throughout version 1.8 of Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC), the BMW M4 GT3 is a popular choice among simracers. Even though I hardly drive myself these days and I have no experience in how often the car gets driven online, I do get a lot of requests for commissions for the car. And this one is no different in that regard! This request came from across the pond, which, for me, is England. I got the request for a commission by a certain Mr. Roberts to make a BMW M4 (GT3)...
The past couple of years, I’ve made quite a few liveries. One of my personal favorites is the Porsche Formula E livery I made, first for the 2020/2021 season of Formula E, and then the updated version for the 2021/2022 season. It’s not just my personal favorite. I have a fan who ordered a personalized version of this livery as a commission (which I offer as a service starting at €10). However, now that the 2023 GTWC Season DLC has released, there is a new Porsche in town: the Porsche...
An interesting commission came from the United States. The design document submitted featured a driver helmet with a lot of coloured shapes. This inspired me to make an ‘art car’ of some sorts for the car in question, the Aston Martin AMR V8 Vantage GT3. The resulting livery was very fun to make. Also because it required me to work a lot with shape masking, a skill I haven’t had a chance to develop yet. The final result, which I’m quite fond of, can be seen in the video above...
I was contacted by someone enrolled in the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to make a livery for their eSports racing team. They wanted their university’s colours, blue and gold on a white background, on a Ferrari 488 GT3 Evo. As it is a school for aeronautical design, featuring an eagle on the logo, I figured to incorporate this into the design. The design on the side resembles an eagle looking forward, while the gold streak on the nose of the car looks like a wing, complete with upturned wing tips. The...
We are well into April, but I haven’t written my March review yet. Life got in the way. But there’s still a whole month’s worth of player data for me to go through in regard to Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC). So, I will finally sit down and review those numbers. How will March have performed against the previous months, and previous March’? You’ll find out, and more, in this post! In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts from Assetto...
This one was fun to do! I got contacted by someone from the USA to make a livery for the new Porsche 992 Cup. A car and class I haven’t made many liveries for, yet. And I hope this is the start of that. The request was to make a livery in a similar vain to a livery they already had made, for their RK9 (read: Arcanine, the pokemon) team. In their email, they sent me a mockup of their team design language, as seen below. Furthermore, they sent me...
As the commissions keep rolling in, it is time to showcase another completed project! This request came from a Polish driver, who wanted an angular design for the Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo 2. He liked my Lexus Orange Lions and BMW Beavers liveries and wanted me to make something similar for the Audi. Furthermore, he had a few sponsor decals he wanted me to incorporate into the design, to which I happily obliged. The final result can be seen in the video above or in the screenshots below. Do...
It’s March, already the 3rd month of 2023. Meaning the second month of 2023, February, has been completed. This also means there is a fresh month’s worth of player data for me to go through in regard to Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC). How will February have performed against the previous months, and previous Februarys? You’ll find out this, and more, in this post! In this series of articles – I’ve been doing this since March 2020 – I analyze the playercounts from Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) using data from steamdb. I...
