I've been playing Forza on and off since FM3 days, and I particularly like the Horizon series. I only started livery design in earnest with FH3 at the end of 2016, so I'm very much a new boy here.

Many of my designs are replicas, initially mostly Subaru rallycross liveries, but due to getting various requests when I was more active on FH3 (a shout out to Scooby Collins, JaCor653 and SoulBuffalo8 in particular), I added replicas of press liveries and other race and rally cars. You will also find some logos shared as well.

I'm going to start by covering the various imports from FM7 and FH3, but hope to add more FH4 specific liveries now that the painting competition has banned imported designs.

The David Higgins 2013 Subaru Rallycross Team U.S.A. #75 car that he used in the 2013 Los Angeles X Games in the Gymkhana Grid event.

There is a matching tune called "Puma GRC" which will up the power, and add the front spoiler and roof vent along with the nearest wheels I could find to the Method Wheels that Vermont SportsCar use. I left the standard rear spoiler as I think it looks better, but you can replace it with the big spoiler as I have built into the liveries the graphics for both the standard spoiler and the optional one.

These are the 2013 Subaru Puma Rallycross Team U.S.A. liveries. The three team members were Bucky Lasek (orange and grey car #81), Sverre Isachsen (lime yellow and blue car #11) and the late Dave Mirra (yellow and black #40). These all had the Puma Zombie Cat logo on the sides, along with different versions of the skull on the roof (Lasek's had a flat brimmed hat and long hair, like him!), Isachsen had a Viking helmet, and Mirra had the flat brimmed hat without the long hair (at least I think so, as the source photos don't show it quite as clearly).

There is a matching tune also called "Puma GRC".

The TT Attack car that Mark Higgins used to set the Isle of Man TT car track record in 2016.

There is a matching tune (also called TT Attack 2016) which ups the power, adds the front and rear wings and increases the tyre sizes and specs.

I have made the livery so it works both with the standard rear wing as well as the modified one (which more closely corresponds with Higgins' actual car).

This is the McLaren 650S Sprint press livery. There is a matching tune also called "650S Sprint" which adds the race wing, race tyres and an S2 tune. Unfortunately, most of the rear of the car can't have any vinyls added so I haven't got the 650S Sprint logo on the back of the car. However, I did manage to put the logo on both wings, the centre of the standard one is at about +258, +358, and the race wing is about -198, -359. The other race wing available doesn't seem to be paintable. The sides also seem to have moved a bit since FM7/FH3.

You got some really nice liveries.. I will be for sure grabbing a few next time I log on

Wow. Lot of quality !

Holy smokes this is a gallery and a half! I don't know where to begin but I am definitely going to be picking a lot of them up! Really great stuff, especially with the rally liveries. Great logo work and everything! The '71 Bathurst Charger is also a particular favorite. Great job with that one!

Thanks Ace, much appreciated from someone with such a massive and excellent race replica catalogue!

Great gallery I had started the Puma Higgins 75 on the last Forza but never finished it, yours looks great as does all of your work! I ended up designing the Atkinsons #55 Rally car.

A couple of additional imports. I wasn't expecting to be able to pull in the Twin Mill!

Need to grab more of your liveries!

I was waiting for the RAM myself, in FM7 I couldn't use it to its full potential, but in this game it's a beast, I love it.

I already have the Escorts as well.

A full set of Weissach colours on the 2016 911 T3 RS, with carbon fibre bonnet/roof/wing/mirrors.

Edit: Some of these came with gold wheels. The ADV.1 ADV10.0 M.V1 CS (under Specialised Rims) seems to be a reasonable match. An easily memorable wheel designation ... ;)

Good looking gallery.

Not sure how I missed your thread Rallyz, definitely would’ve posted before now. Always been a big fan (and slightly jealous, LoL) of those Puma Rallycross liveries as well as the Dirtfish 😎

Nice job with the 650S, none of my previous paints work with the bodykit that comes with most tunes so I’ll be giving yours a whirl next time I’m on. Also, thanks for sharing the info on the wing placements 👍🏾



Not familiar with the animated series but I like that character you’ve got on the side there… reminds me a lot of a paint I did for an FM4 tuning garage which was based on Ed Roth’s “Rat Fink” artwork.

Yeah, I wasn't familiar with it myself. Someone asked for it on FH3 and I thought it would be a different direction for me. (See https://forums.forzamotorsport.n...quest-for-Horizon-3.aspx)

You're right about the Ed Roth influence, this image looks to be the inspiration:




EDIT: Ah, it appears from the Motorcity Wiki at http://motorcitydisneyxd.wikia.com/wiki/Mutt that it was definitely an homage to Ratfink and Ed Roth.

You are among the most beautiful people in the world.

<Blush> Thanks NightDriver!

As mentioned in my edit above, the ADV.1 ADV10.0 M.V1 CS (under Specialised Rims) wheels make a reasonable match for those that came with gold wheels.

Great job as always. Saw the original picture and all I thought was Rat Fink! All of these are great but damn, the Rat Fink logo is just amazing. If I wind up getting that Twin Mill you can bet I'm downloading this.

Thanks!

Maybe I should put it on the Lizard Green GT3 RS :)


Edit: Couldn't resist ...

Oops. Now shared. Thanks for letting me know.

No problem.
