It's all about the style and smoke! Image and liveries by @CroxSkin. - (click for full-size)


This Fortnight's Theme
Drifting is certainly an outlandish way of driving, without a doubt! It started out as illegal touge racing deep in the Japanese mountain roads, to today’s globalised motorsport events seen from around the world.

This outlandish driving style also transcend into their livery designs. You often see drift cars with wild graphics, eccentric colours, chrome masking, etc. Some designs may even bring out the drivers’ own uniqueness, such as Madmike's MADBUL RX-7, Dan Burkett's RAD Industries Supra, etc. So, in this round you will have to show us your wild side. Be bold, don’t be afraid to go a little overboard, and most importantly be YOU!

Finally to top it off, capture a photo in a smoking rear wheel display of drifting flair!

USER MADE DECALS: Yes

3) Place your car in the middle of the scape at a suitable angle:

4) Zoom in to 102mm (certain cars may require more or less to fit in the viewfinder) and move the camera until you're happy that the car is centred in the shot:

View attachment 729372


5) Move the focus to the nearest corner of the car (I normally centre on the headlamp closest to the centre of the image) and take your shot.

6) For a shot of the rear, go back to the Car tab and hit R2, switch to Camera and refocus (again I use the tail lamp nearest the centre) and take the shot. If the car has moved off-centre then move the viewfinder and adjust the zoom as you see fit.

For new cars/liveries simply find the scape in your library and reopen and change the car, then rinse and repeat as above.

UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS:
  1. Replica or fantasy are allowed
  2. Bonus pic must be in motion, no static shots. A race photo of your car in mid-drift is recommended (gotta capture that smoke!), but not compulsory. As long as it shows smoke.
  3. For design inspirations, feel free to check out this thread over at GTS Drifting.

Deadline

Is it limited to only using sponsor decals and logos? I want to know if it would be okay to add an anime or cartoon character to the livery.

Also, would a simple burnout image count for the third, or does it absolutely have to be in motion? I ask because I found a nice use of the camera settings that makes it look like there is a lot more smoke than there is, but I'm not sure I'll be able to replicate it with a fast-moving car.
 
I have one ready to go for this but not sure if I should use it as it is a real life livery, or make a new fantasy one, hmmmmm...

Sure, why not. I also mentioned to syntex earlier that the idea is to express your wild side, if there were too many rules I feel it would contradict that. So, anime or cartoons are allowed, as long as they are not offensive obviously.

A photo of your car in a drifting motion is only a recommendation, burnout pics are allowed too.

Ufff ufff, this one will be hard one again for me...

Trying to imagine some wild and sick piece. Will need to look around the globe as the only reference for drift car is the one BRZ in game and the Zebra-striped Monster Fiesta, which is not much. ^^
 
I have two I could enter. I’m just not sure yet. I think I’ll Google a bit first and see if I can find something even better first. :lol:
 
FINAL ENTRY

Based on Ryan Tuercks drift car. Simply I liked the juxtaposition of the soft pattern with the hard coloured lines. And figured since my wheel is broken at the moment I might as well do something to get the competition going :)

My smoke disappears when I pause to grab a shot. Is there a setting I need to change? Vanilla PS4.

Edit, whatever it was, it's fixed now, I have smoke. :)

Edit: I've change those freaking pics three times now, I don't know how the hell to do it right. This is why I haven't been entering.
Nice :) I see images but they’re very pixelated until I click, odd. I use Flickr to upload my images so I can’t really help you, sorry!

Choice! I've always liked the 2013 version of Ryan Tuerck's FR-S! Your version of it is equally awesome! Too bad we can't choose separate colours for the front/back wheels on GTS..

FINAL ENTRY

Dai Yoshihara's 2014 Falken BRZ

Agreed with syntex, killer shot! Exactly what I was looking for in terms of capturing drifting flair. The livery itself is spot on, good job 👍

Awesome design! I particularly like the colours that you've used. This is definitely one wild ride 👍
 
This fortnights theme is right up my street, been lurking around these livery competitions for a little while, quite keen to give it a bash; not that I'll be any good though :lol:.

Anyway quick question, and apologies in advance if this has been asked before, but is there any issue with using a livery you've previously already created? as I have one in the pipeline but it could do with an update and a general bit of TLC.

I have entered previously made ones and the rules don‘t state you‘re not allowed to enter them. The only thing is that you cannot enter a livery that has already been entered in a previous contest afaik

Gotcha 👍, in which case I'll be back here in a few days with the finished product hopefully :).

Yeah please join in, it’s a lot of fun!

Yes, previously made liveries are fine. I plan on doing the same as I’m not sure what else to make than what I’ve already made. And to refresh on the rules like @Nuschel01 already said: As long as the liveries entered haven’t been used in a previous competition it’s all good!



Anyways here goes my entry. A slight tweak to the real one - I originally made it white but decided a while back to tweak it slightly and make it silver. Didn't share the silver one, so the one I link here is white. If you want to view the silver one, do let me know.

FINAL ENTRY

FINAL ENTRY
The Spirit of Skids


This is going to be controversial... most drift cars are not exactly pretty. And I say that in the most loving way possible.

I owned an R32 for a while and spent a fair bit of time at grassroots drifting events. The Skylines, Silvias and Soarers there, are there to die. It was quite confronting to me at first, watching these dream cars be pushed to destruction,fixed, wrecked, than thrown away and replaced. Over time though, I grew to appreciate the relaxed attitude and great fun that these events; along with these beat to death rear wheel drive weapons can create. It’s a no 🤬 given attitude that is pretty unique in Motorsport and life.

For me, drifting isn’t about flashy corporate backed professionals and while that type of livery is right up my ally; I was coming up blank for this challenge. So instead I decked out an old RX7 like a granny spec S13. Then I spent some hours adding the marks, scars, scrapes, zipties and rubber that come from throwing cars at walls along with some basic, relevant decals. Oh and the obligatory rattle canned stockies and carbon fibre wrap on the bonnet... to hide the fact that it’s a different colour to the car :lol:

I’m not sure if this livery is even technically eligible for this comp, but I had a lot of fun making it :cheers:

Yeah I was aware of the lines been upside down, I have another version on the go but may actually submit a different design altogether after having another idea.

That livery has over 3000 likes and it's kinda funny no one else has noticed :D
I did, but since using old liveries isn't against the rules, I didn't mind it :P
