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.

For this livery I am inspired by my city's university (TuE) real world entry into the solar power challenge held annually in Australia.

Since the required format we have to send in the pictures does not show the "solar panels" on the roof and hood as intended I decided to use my spoiler pictures to show the car in its proper angles and so you can see the solar panels as intended.

A pity the settings as required are too strict for such a photo. Hope this helps to bring the idea across!

Most of the Formula E teams have oil lubricant sponsors,
and Gulf sponsored Team Aguri, so I don't quite get the "no fuel companies" or sponsors inconsistent with EVs.

I'd argue that if Formula E teams can run with Castrol or Gulf then we should be able to use them as sponsors.

Technically with Formula e, it is under renewable energy and not oil/lubricants.

 
I imagined Audi's comeback to the WEC with a completely electric car like the Audi e-tron VGT. The sponsor choices come from usual German names, and the main one (Dasani) comes from the color choice. I picked the Green-Blue 2 colorshift and it reminded me of a Dasani water bottle, so I said, why not?
 
This time last year I made my favourite version of the Audi Race Home entries.
It didn't win but some YTer used it to enter in the Race Home series.
Strange all round really.

Anyway. This is me reclaiming it as such.
All Race Home decals have been removed and the livery is now Gloss Black and Gold, not Powder Black.
I've changed the main sponsor to DURACELL, cause it works really well with the livery,
and only left Castrol as the rest of the sponsors are those associated with the Audi Formula E team.

I toned down the brightness on the main shots because I've found that on the white or chrome liveries it tends to oversaturate the livery.
