I love to do it but can't come up with anything worth a crap. I spent an hour the other night trying to do some basic number plates or whatever you call them. Ended up deleting everything. Looked like pure garbage. May let me 9 year old have a go at it for me.
the best bit of advice I could give is dont give up! take your time and save anything that you start working on. come back to it later with fresh eye balls, it makes a difference. also if your making logo replicas get yourself a nice big picture of it to work from. look at what you want to create as though it is made of layers itself and start from the back to the front. and choosing the most obvious shape to use is not always the best, and can sometimes make your logo look wrong. have a look through the shapes and try different ones. I'll stop rambling on now and finish with Don't give up I've been painting since Forza 2 and am still learning stuff.
H2, if you need number plates I have a few on my storefront already, they should be free OR maybe 1k, I don't know, BUT you can drop your number on 'em and go. Also, the guys around here also have some plates as well, and pass 'em around from series to series.
I have one that's nothing more than a blank plate with a 2o4f on it if you'd like it?

thanks Oldschool. I will check out your storefront.
Cheers Driveby I do love my M1 design heres a pic of my fellow team mates and me from a race tonight, looks even better when there is more than one. :)
Ya'll are great. Good looking cars. Grim, are you running that paint in the BMW Series?? I love it!!!! If your not running it, could I purchase for me please??
Very new to the forum. Really impressed with the work that goes into these decals and paint jobs lots to learn from. I've only dabbled but decided to try and create my own art work. the buck here is the nottingham county cricket club mascot I created using a trace technique with a plastic that i can pencil on then hang over the screen. The robin hood is my own take on logos I've seen promoting Nottingham. That maybe the way I go with this.If your ever behind me then that means either I'm not last or I'm about to be lapped. So the bumper stickers will be designed to put people off their game. Is that allowed?
Some of my paints. mainly BTCC replicas
And some custom jobs
Good looking stuff! BTCC cars are quite popular around here.
Nice replicas!
Very cool looking. I really wish I could paint like you guys.
It takes a TON of time. My stuff is pure garbage compared to some of these guys and I've still spent hours upon hours doing paints

Oh, I think I've seen Apex's work on the T-10's before, always good stuff.
lol, thats a different Apex, but thanks all the same :)
That just made me think how many Oldschool's are out there on xbox live, sent a shiver down my spine.
We are Legion...
But, that's why my GT's Oldschool 204f now...
But, as always, IF you search Oldschool, it should get you there...probably some other stuff as well too though...
Great work Apex, love the M1 design.
Boredom one night leads to a quick Grand Theft Auto inspired bit on a drift tuned E36 lol

LOL, yeah, there's some quite interesting "rear" tags, messages, logo's if you hang around the tracks a bit.
