    All

    I've been teaching myself how to paint in rfactor using the Spec Miata mod (made by Simon). Here are a few.

    Its actually a camoflauge used by the Germans in WWI that I played with a bit before using. My boy just told me he thinks its a snake skin

    Very nice Phil....you might mute the colors a little, a trick I read about years ago that makes the cars look more in line with real-world lighting.

    That 1916 car reminds me of the snakeskin Viper that Philip drove at one point...

    Nice job Phil! Like Tim said, you don't want to use "pure" colors, such as pure red, pure white, pure blue, etc. (I found the ILMS paint guide section on colors quite handy: http://collier-racing.com/ILMS/Paint...tm#RIGHTCOLORS )

    The exception is if you are trying to get some fluorescent colors to show up, like the accent colors on our 2010 ILMS cars.

    Just curious, are you using Photoshop?

    I just got photoshop, but all that work was with gimp

    Many of the colors are muted I used, but yeah, I look at the image and a few of the cars pop a bit too much
