    Default Need your opinion - LM paint scheme related.

    When Mike announced Darlington All-Star invitation, I thought of a special paint scheme - I wanted my "Speed Demon" scheme that I made for NR2003 ()My Original NR2003 Speed Demon.

    The biggest challenge is that iRacing won't let us remove/re-arrange any decals (i.e. headlights, contingencies, taillight, etc...) - I decided to work it around it. So far, I have drew angry eyes (teeth and flame will be added later).

    Before I go further... I need your opinion on the eyes on front of the vehicle.



    What do you think?

    Thanks, Troy. I'm thinking of adding red lines in eyes.

    Anyone else?

    I added the teeth on the side - this is just to see how it looks. The biggest challenge is trying to line them up - it was tough part. What do you think?

    Demons don't generally have symmetrical teeth. So I'd opt to chip a few and stagger the size them a bit. Maybe an ingrown one or two. I'd also add some red veins to the whites of the eye. A demon must be bursting with rage.

    Remember that this advice comes from Stephen King...

    Well, "Speed Demon" sounds cool rather than "Speed Shark" or "Speed Monster".

    I was trying to copy WWII plane with teeth - like this:

    For anyone who cares... Here's latest:



    The "flame" on the hook is just an experiment. I planned on making some change in that area.

    I'm done. I went through more than 10 different flames and I decided on this one.


    Mike, I will email you the layout - I will not post it on Tradepaint.com because this is unique scheme and only me using this.

    I planned to create one on Silverado for the next season league.
