Joe's Garage/Paints

[Joe Hubbard]

Ok so I couldn't sleep last night and thought I might start a skin for the truck. I have tried a few different things and just can't get it to look the way I want. So I ask for your opinions and lets see where we can take it.

Fire away and all are welcome!!!

[Joe Hubbard]

lol, sorry they had changed the IP of my server and didn't shut the old one down... It's fixed now

 

[Dario Jagar]

maybe to put rear half of the truck into different base color, also base blue maybe little bit lighter, few sponsor on rear-sides?
like it so far!

 

[Joe Hubbard]

yeah the rear sides is what I'm having a problem with, I can't seem to find anything that looks right there.

 

[Joe Hubbard]

Ok how about this?

 

[Joe Hubbard]

Here is what I've come up with. Let me have it... lol...

 

[Dario Jagar]

sweet, now go and try it on this track:

my favourite in truck!

 

[Joe Hubbard]

I have one word for that track Dario... ICE.... hahaha

 

[Eric Estes]

I like what you did with the side... have you tried it with gold/yellow traded out for the silver/white?

Not yet, but that is an idea! I don't know what it is but I am still not very happy with it.

 

[Eric Estes]

Maybe take (most of) the sponsors you have in front of your front wheels, and place them in a single stack at the very back of each side.

 

[Joe Hubbard]

Ok here it is as you suggested... I don't think you can get rid of the sponsors, doesn't anyone know about this? I might try it with removing the yellow/blue circle from the bull on the hood and see how that looks.

 

[Eric Estes]

Ahh... didn't realize the contingency sponsors were done by iRacing. Do like it better - maybe reverse the top and bottom flames (yellow inside, gold outside) since the RB is more yellow. Could fill the blue patch at the top rear with a "Red Bull" or some other minor sponsor (RD?)

Giving photoshop a stretch

Ok so I took my new paint out for a little run and got a little sideways, cough, cough... For the camera of course!!!! I thought I would open the ol photoshop back up. Perhaps maybe you guys can expect a pictorial of tomorrows Racedepartment Mustang get together...

Joe, excellent photo. I've tried screenshots and video editing, but fail miserably. That one above is crisp with detail which I cant seem to get.

 

[Joe Hubbard]

It's not really a big deal once you get use to it. It becomes a big deal when you really get to editing a shot as some do on the iRacing forums. What I did above I would not consider a big deal at all really, I think once I had the shot in photoshop I might have spent about 45 seconds on it. However I have tools and software that I use for photography that take a huge chuck of time out of the process for some of the simple stuff.

Coming to a youtube near you!!!

Not bad, but make it different! everyone goes for the Red Bull theme!
