^ My old favorite!

Really sweet ride mste. I've always had a soft spot for the old Z, they look amazing with the right paint on, and the converable looks amazing.

Bizarrely had a Kanji design on the go as well, glad it wasn't the same!

Lol, it was painful! I hair metallic logos... :-/

Lol, I hate hairy logos as well mate heheheh even if they do look great with all that 'hair' hanging out in the sunshine.

Anyhow, fun aside, you know my view on artwork mate. You should check out some of the street art around the Newtown, Glebe, Erskineville and zen more areas.

Do a google for Street Art in those areas, and you'll be in for a treat .....

Cheers.... OZ

Nice one Zj, looks rather 'Dark' and meanacing..... Nice use of the Turn 10 logos as well. No doubt you've recreated them, as you're not the type to use 'house' logos unless absolutely asked for by Turn 10.

Nice of them to make them for us to use in our liveries.

Trust that they'll keep this up, as it encourages newer artist the chance to get out there with the likes of yourself and other Top Ten Painters in Forza Racing.

Any thoughts as to the new name that thus franchise is going to adopt once September 2017 hits...hmmmm wonder what it could be....hmmm.

Ooo, that Z is looking fine! Is the gold on the metallic? It looks like it is in some pics and not in others.

Yep, he said it was in earlier posts actually. They use a gold base for the tire car, then colour it in the colour they want thence to be.

Sometimes you can tweak the topcoat by altering the opacity, allowing the gold and metallic to shine through. Much like when you're actually spraying true Candy Apple or true Pearlesant.

Modern day "Candys" are just Sudo-Candys, where candy tint is added to the paint mix to get a deeper sheen to the finish., so factory candies are NOT real Candy paint. Same with modern Pearl. It's just a mother of pearl overlay over the existing colour. Making colour match almost impossible.

To do those candies you had to use either a silver or a gold metallic (real metalic, not the micro metalic they use today) base coat.

The silver or the gold gave a totally different tone to the candy paint. True candy paint is actually fully translucent pigmentless paint.. It's NOT. A solid colour. You open a tin of candy, and you can see the bottom of the tin. Very dark, but you can see it.

So applying candy over the gold have it a real goldfish tint to the apple red candies became well known for.

So he's used a similar principle. And this type of work is NOT for the faint hearted mste. Don't attempt it unless you have the Paitence to fo it. There's only a few that do it well, and this is one of the better jobs. He dies these really well. Proof is in the pudding really. This looks awesome on the track and in the light of day.

When it comes to the logos and art, that's done as a negative logo. So the logo is created, then the outline is traced by shapes, then the gaps filled in outside the logos edge. Then the logo is removed/deleted. Leaving the gold logo showing up from under the top coat colour.

Make sense mate.?

Hairy logos aside, love these. Just booted up for the first time in months last night...bought some cars, etc... Have to grab these.

Yep! I just it just depends on the lighting and angle. The large Kanji on the side as well as the hood are metallic. Also the kanji/snake logo on the front fender. I did the "sunline" logo in metallic also but I didn't like how it came out so I trashed it. It was definitely a P.I.A..... :-/
**** pic put you can kind see it better

Thanks buddy! :)

Quality work, do you have a multiplayer tune for it ?

Sadly no.... Im so backed up with paint projects and Facebook HLC's that I didn't even think to tune it. I looked through my paints Monday and realized that I had 4 or 5 cars done that I though I had already posted an shared... Let me see if I can get you a tune for it real fast.

Cheers, or even if you know of someone else who will have a tune for it of their SF.
