Official Forza Car Design Thread

A Dreamcast logo would be very easy. There are curved "primitives" in the editor that you could use to knock up a convincing logo in a few minutes.
 
Some things are pretty tough to make though. For instance, I'm trying to add the Pride logo to the top of one of my cars. It looks like this:

So far, I've really been struggling with the fist part of it. Since there aren't really any shapes other than the triangle that get smaller on one end, you have to use rectangles instead. It ends up looking a bit janky. Oh, well.

That shouldn't be too hard. Are you having trouble with the text or the hand/lightning bolt?

The hand/lightning bolt. I'm putting it on the top of one of my cars.

It looks like it would be easy but I spent an hour last night and didn't really like where it was going. I think part of the difficulty has to do with how I'm trying to keep the black outline around the white.

Just make a dark grey/black silouette first and place the smaller white fingers on top.

Yeah, that's what I did. The difficulty comes in overlapping the lightning bolt with the thumb, fingers, and palm of the hand. Thanks for the suggestion though.
 
Ok mine doesn't have shit on any of these,but I tried :lol

It's still early,and I'm thinkin of what else I could add to it,the "Steelers" text on the logo took me over an hour :|
 
Wouldn't it be kind of funny to have a few Car Club members get the same car, some strange design incorporating say, Hot Pink civics or something, and then just fill up room after room where you don't say a word to the other drivers?
 
My finished Resident Evil 4 car, and quite chuffed I am with it too! (tho i'm sure someone else could do better...)






Won't be adding to it now unless I suddenly get the courage to try and put the Capcom logo somewhere on the car.
 
Deathcraze: that is amazing man. Good job.

If I could only find some place that has this game in to rent so I could decide if GT4 is being traded in for this.

Well considering its just like GT and yet better; i say you trade it in. :D
 
I'm halfway through turning a New Beetle into Herbie, mostly because it's simple enough that I won't be discouraged with my complete lack of ability with the decal editor. I'll post crappy digicam shots later on.
 





I haven't finished him, obviously. I still need to put the number on the sides and back, but I think it's pretty faithful to the original. It's heaps simple but I like it. :)
 
Here's my exciting entry:

Still needs a bit of work, but I took a break from decal-mania to actually race the car. :p

i'm not crazy about the physics, but HOLY CRAP THESE ARE AWESOME

i'm going to have to find an xbox and get my copy of forza sent over. shit!
 
There are already "underground" programs that will convert pictures to decals. I really feel for people who take the time to do it properly.
 
OK, here's a couple of cars I finally got around to painting:


This car is modeled after the Bouygues Telecom car here:

Hehe, when a guy I was racing first saw this car, he said he felt like he was in a gay pride parade. :lol

Do you guys think I should change the color?

Any suggestions are welcome.
 
nice job on the cars. i dont get the gay pride remark, so dont change a thing.

thanks for bumping the thread too, i need to get off my ass and work on a few more cars tomorrow... and actually play the game a bit more :P
 
No dont change a color becuase a homophobic is afraid of purple. I sport a pearlecent hot pink Elise with pride.

Yep, me as well. I've been outside doing stuff so much lately, that I don't seem to have the time.
