THIS FORTNIGHT'S THEME

This week, we stay with iconic classics. Last winner @Sian set this theme, let's hear what he has to say :

The Samba Bus is a Legend for the oldest of us, who I'm part of! I want to see what you can do with it.

It can be a support vehicle for an old race team, a rusty Samba, with or without advertising, it can be an old thing found 50 years earlier or a "new" one recently pimped. Why not an old "Flower Power"?

As my father says, do what you want but do it well!

- VW Samba Bus Type 2 (T1) '62

- Original liveries only, no replicas

UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS :
- No restrictions.

GENERAL COMPETITION RULES

ENTRY SUBMISSION

- The only way you can take part is to be a member of the GTPlanet forums. If you haven't created your account yet, click here
- Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text.
- Unsure how to? Copy and paste the following:
Code:
[COLOR=red][B]FINAL ENTRY[/B][/COLOR]
- One entry per user. It must be your own work, and never previously used in a competition.
- You may change your entry once. Do it clearly; edit out your previous entry, and either post the new one in a new reply, or in place of the original.
- Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
- Absolutely no entries which utilize edited/hacked file saves.

- Winner gets to choose the following Fortnight's theme.
- Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
- The Host may ask for the original image/livery and it must be submitted if so.
- It's recommended to share the original livery online (in-game) to prove it’s your work.
- Winner, second and third places will have to share the links of the liveries for the Hall of Fame thread


ENTRY PRESENTATION

- All images shall have preview images which may not exceed 640 pixels in either direction (main and bonus pictures)
- You have to post two main pictures of your entry using the mandatory locations and settings as shown below
- You are allowed to post two bonus pictures in a spoiler with free location and settings (unless the unique restrictions of the week’s theme specify something else)
- You have to make one post with ONLY the 4 pictures and the FINAL ENTRY mark. If you want to add precisions/background story/links, you are allowed to double-post under your entry. The best way to do it will be to "reply" to your own post.

- It is recommended you host your image either here on GTPlanet (via the Media section), or on Flickr
- Not sure how to submit your image? Here's a guide for both methods mentioned above.
- A preview image must be representative of the full-size image. Do not add effects to it.
- Please use a clickable-preview to full-size, not a separate text link for it; it makes poll creation much easier!
- No heavy post-game editing, slight enhancing is allowed.

- You can choose between the Shiretoko 03 location or the White Sands 01/09 locations. No other location will be allowed for the main pics.

Honoured to be the first of the year (and just to be part of it)!

Thanks to @Cytoria for his amazing involvement in the competition and especially for this banner I couldn't do by myself.

Happy new year to everyone! I'm waiting to see some things rated 20/20! :cool:

I wanted to let it as open as possible even if I choose just one car to work on.
I know you guys can do incredible things, and I thought that making it on a mandatory vehicle could help highlighting the design and the idea behind it.

I hope you'll like that! :cheers:

Would I be able to re use my livery from #6 if I pulled off the rust layers?

I wasn't there at the time so I don't know what your livery was but I think you should at least replace some of your decals and/or colors to respect the "never used before" rule.

I'm not going to lie, I've been wanting to create a Peko Chan livery for a long time now. So here you have the Milky promo bus. Making deliveries in holiday time with record pace.
I'm glad I offered you this opportunity AND you offered us this awesome livery!!
Please share the link.

@Slender_Man I would have loved to see what you could have done with it as I usually like what you do. :(
Next time maybe. :)

Really liked the lowered look on some of the other entries so lowered the ride height on the bus. Have kept the Formula Vee style wheels. Looking at the rear sections now makes me think I'd have been better leaving the blue out and keeping it mostly black, but the colourful bus is done.
