THIS MONTH'S THEME

I discussed options with @ringkurier as he had won LEC 39.
Given the intro of the Toyota it seemed it would be a good idea to run a Gr1 and Gr2 special at Le Mans.
Get working on the new Toyota or any other Gr1 or Gr2 machine.
Take your favourite racing livery and bring it to Le Mans.
F1, Moto GP, NASCAR, Super GT... The choice is yours.
70s, 80s, 90s, today... The choice is yours.
The only limit is it must be Gr1 or Gr2 in GT7.



Please read the rules below to make sure you don't miss anything when you post your entry, as ignoring them can get you disqualified.


CARS:
  • Gr1
  • Gr2

BODY PARTS / WIDEBODY:
  • No Restrictions

LIVERIES:
  • Any replica livery

UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS:
  • No Restrictions

BONUS PICTURE SETTINGS:
  • Must be at Le Mans

USER MADE DECALS:
  • Allowed


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: [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 utilise edited/hacked file saves.
  • Winner gets to choose the following month’s theme.
  • The organisers 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.


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 location and settings as shown in the quote below.
  • You are allowed to post two bonus pictures in a spoiler ([SPOILER]...[/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 set allowed number of pictures and the FINAL ENTRY (see above) mark. If you want to add precisions/background story/links, you are allowed to double-post under your entry, but please put all additional images in a spoiler. 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.
  • Do not attach your phots directly to your entry post.
  • 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 post-game editing of any entry image is allowed.
  • Mark your entry with which platform you're on and which mode you're using, whether it’s taken on PS4 Base, PS4 Pro, PS5 Raytracing or PS5 Framerate.


MANDATORY PICTURES
  • You have to post a front and a rear quarter view of your car:
    • Mandatory Scape: S&Company East, Saitama, Japan (scape number 5)
    • Focal Length: ~80mm ±5mm
    • Aperture: f5.6 or f8.0
    • Shutter Speed: 1/1 Second
    • Exposure Correction: +0.5 to +1.0
  • Do not use any Filters or Effects at all and only the camera setting above within the allowed limits; the pictures are supposed to be as equal as possible for all entries and not give anyone who is a bit more savvy with the Scapes Camera an advantage! Try to stay as close as possible to how the video shows the shot to be taken!

NOTE: if you have previously entered, just go to Scapes > My Library > click your previous entry > Open Scapes > change car to the new entry, refocus and snap a new photo. No need to reposition the camera/car unless its proportions are wildly different.


Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, start a convo with me, Matski or any other participant you feel comfortable reaching out to.

PLEASE NOTE: Repeat offenders will be disqualified. If your entry doesn’t match the rules you will be made aware of it at least once, so please keep an eye out for any notifications reaching your profile.

I’ve asked some people if there were issues preventing them from entering the LEC.

One roadblock is photo uploads and formatting.

Obviously if you can setup and post photos on your own then continue to do so.

For those that can’t, I will set up an LEC folder for each round. Post your entry. I’ll set them up in the LEC folder and then you can edit your entry with the BB link in the LEC folder.

Hopefully that helps more people get involved.

I'm happy I can upload my entry pics by myself because I didn't understand what you're talking about! I'm too old and too French for these BB link things! :lol:

Anyway, it's been a while since I've been there, lack of time and motivation for mandatory themes these last months, I hope everyone's fine and thank you for talking about these LEC again on the GTD discord because that motivated me to come back! :)

I wish you the best ! Longue vie aux LECs!
 
This is a little Super GT/Le Mans crossover livery i did a few months ago using the Denso Kobelco Supra GT500.
I felt this livery fits the GR010 very well.

Been a while but I finally had some inspiration again to join this competition.
Always a fan of the smaller teams in F1, and definitely back in the 90's. They gave us some very nice liveries.

I've tried to work the Minardi M194 livery from 1994 on to the GT-One.
As always with theses smaller teams, they had different sponsors in each race it seems, but this is based on how it is shown on the following web page: Minardi M194

PS, can we open the debate again to change the default location to show your livery for the contests? This indoor location doesn't do the colours justice (not for this one, but I had it happen in the past), you really need an outdoors location, which gives you a bit more of a birds eye view in my opinion. Now you can't even see the design on top of those side pods.

I almost posted this same thing in the other contests thread where Racerx was kind enough to keep this going... This location is a bummer, has bad lighting, and just washes out designs. Seems like we keep it because it's already there… but it's worth thinking of a new one in my opinion.

The challenge is likely the How to Set Up Scene video… we'd need new criteria defined either thru a video or screenshots, and that's work to figure out and then document. Happy to be an extra hand on that if this comes to be.

Agreed on this. I like the location but agree it's limiting in lighting and it would also be nice to use one of the scenes where height can be adjusted - you'd then be able to alter your shot to show off angles which work best for the livery.

Why yes it is and thanks for posting it. Or it might be someone else's decal (A-RIPRNR5491)
Just checked and its not yours. It is 2 layers black base then color by A-RIPRNR5491. Likely change to your as it is narrower and I could make the Listerine text larger.
