Cool, which AI %-setting let that happen?

I  d also appreciate an insight how to properly mod a livery, whereever I looked that up you needed photoshop and such, imagine there s some other way (an in game editor be awesome, just saying).

I run 102 AI, I'd probably put it down to weird performance levels in the first two seasons prior to patches and R&D

Yep Photoshop is required. It can be really tedious though. Tom97 goes over it well but glosses over the designing part, but you can figure that out with trial and error and the 3d model projection. Process is the same as F1 2020

My face when I'm still waiting on codies to drop cool liveries in the shop so I can contribute to the thread some more.

With the continuation of MyTeam this year let’s carry forwards the Post Your Car megathread! Looking forwards to seeing everyone’s fantastic designs this year, I’ll start!

Season 1: Following a successful buyout of Shark AC-Sport towards the end of 2020, BMW make a return to the sport.

Team Name: BMW Slingshot

Engine: Mercedes

Teammate: Calum Ilott

 

That's cool.

How to turn it out?

Today's store livery gave me some Williams vibes when I started playing around with it

This is genuinely a better Williams than the actual real Williams.

[SmokyAtom07]

I’ve gone for a theme of poor taste, and I don’t just mean buying a Renault.

As there are 6 slots, I always have 5 WIPs and one spare one that I use for design. Then when a decent livery comes along, I replace one of the 5 with the one in the 6th slot, so I’ll always have 5 liveries ready to go at any one time. 
There’s currently 1 that I like, 1 I think is actually decent, 1 that’s sub-standard, 1 that’s poor and 1 that’s awful.   I’d like to say it’s easy to guess which one is which but looking at them now, it may be a trickier task than I thought. 
I’m hoping some better liveries come out and I have something to work with.

a light color (white) on top of another light color (yellow) is always a tough choice 😄

This is pretty cool if you work on the sponsor colours a bit I regret missing this livery.

I’ve done very limited work on the sponsors yet as I’ve yet to choose the RaceSuit I’m going to wear.  I may just go with the Deluxe one as it kinda suits the car but it restricts sponsor options as it’s a dark suit.
I’m not sure if it’s still the case but last year, whatever colour you had the sponsors was the same on the suit so I was going to try and find a combination that matched both. 
White is tricky to get working with Yellow but Black overalls would rule out darker sponsor colours.  I’ll think of something but maybe a better livery will come out and solve my problems 🤞🏻

Yes, the liveries are currently still a bit dull atm, I'm not convinced of leopard pattern or dots and squares. I prefer classic liveries.

I’m having the same issues.  I’ve been through all of them and they’re the best 5 I’ve managed to cobble together that have some style and I can only see 2 actually making it to the track. Hopefully podium pass 2 is different and isn’t just wavy lines and abstract art shapes or I’m going to struggle beyond season 2!

I haven’t started a proper campaign yet until I’ve got at least one or two combinations of helmet, livery and suit that looks like a real team would actually use.

in f1 2020 most of the liveries weren't that great either, but there were one or two good liveries in every season, so there is hope.

Gotta love how those liveries have colored sections in red that you can't change for another color and just break the setup you're trying to do.

Really trying with these liveries man (random detail on this one is the paint wear on the last shot of the nose, that's very nice I didn't notice till the showroom close up)

Nice pick on the decals for the nose, sadly in most cases a car livery design in this game that involves multiple colors of decals will not work well with the race suit that goes with it. Only the stickers on the rear section of the car are free of this interference (2x on rear wing, 1x engine intake, 1x rear section of sidepods). 

Honestly, when can we select decals for livery, race suit & helmet individually?

Since my main game mode is online it doesn't show the suit or helmet sponsor decals, only the basic design, I never really have to worry about it, I don't know why it doesn't, it would probably be a nice touch.. but that's CM for you lol.

I only focus on MyTeam mode so without this function is just a big stinger for me 😬

I wanted to throw my money at the screen whenever a good looking livery is released, but sadly CM doesn't seems to want me to do that arghhhhh.

One of the things that puts me off MyTeam is just how much 'My Team' stands out and it's difficult to blend in with the F1 grid with such limited options. I feel your pain on it and was disappointed there was basically nothing done to customisation, not even the ability to save a group of colours between car, suit and gloves etc. you still have to make note or remember the numbers. Little quality of life things that other games have had for literally generations for some of them. 

They started without number so I guess at least we move forward 

I bemoaned the lack of realistic looking helmets as well for years, Aiden Jackson's this year is fantastic, we should have a range of designs that detailed by now really.

I had literally zero experience doing this. Had to watch a couple of tutorials in YT about it. Yesterday I went to my friend's because he has photoshop and I decided to give it a try. I'm not picky and just did it for the fun, and hell, I wanted to create a proper livery from a fan of this great band. Took me full 4 hours. Here are the results:

Loving this livery from the store with the block of silver. The onboard looks great, though I don't have a screenshot of that.

Colours are 175/240/50 and 175/240/150.

[Ryne]

I know mods don't count, I just wanted to bump the topic. I like a lot of the liveries in here

 

 

[Schneehase]

Here is a short video clip showcasing 2 designs for in game liveries, one is an Ayrton Senna tribute (in his helmet colors, though I might make it a bit darker, eventually), the other is somewhat close to Jaguar / silk cut sportscar liveries of the 90ies. Enjoy!

I dont have an account there afaik - but the youtube video code can be embedded, feel free to link it there in your own post if you want to. Sure, would be awesome if someone was using it in a myteam playthrough, maybe you can sign up Senna as your driver some day 😄 

Since Senna was driving when I was a teenager and since Senna was born the same day as my dad (21.3. though years apart) I always was a biiig Senna fan. Greatest of all times, though (for me, personally) its a close call with GillesVilleneuve, who did not survive long enough to show more of his skills. If Senna had survived that welded steering rod on his Williams back then, it would have been interesting to see the "giants" Senna vs Schumacher for a longer time period. Prost had retired, Senna had died, so Schumacher had no real challenger. Damon Hill tried his best in a very strong Williams, as did Mika Häkkinnen with McLaren, but over the years the tough rival for Schumacher was missing. Besides, Senna would either be F1 chairman or a successful brazilian politician now. The brazil people love / adore him from what I learned. Ayrton forever! Sorry for the OT 🙂

I just wanted a little bit of a change, so i broke away from Renault and rebranded the team as Morgan Racing
Ferrari Engine, George Russell as a Team mate

Race Wins: 0
Podiums: 5
Pole Positions: 4

P7 in 1st Season, P4 in 2nd Season.

Yea, Senna was a humanitarian and humble man.  He was very generous and loved his people, especially the unfortunate and the poor and help as much as he could through charity .  What a great man Senna was.  I still miss him a lot.  Watched all his races when he was with Lotus and McLaren.

Thanks for the suggestions on getting your Senna Skin.  I hope you make an account to RaceDepartment.  Your Liveries would be welcome there and people would love it!  You are talented skin maker!

Here's my take on a Stewart-Ford SF21

[marioho]

@Schneehase, I've said this before here. Senna was the last Brazilian sportsman to transcend to the country's legendarium. He was huge in life and became a true hero after death. Names like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho hold so much value in a nation that has embraced football as their main sport and hobby but you'll not find them in the same breath one speaks of Senna.

If you're really into him, I cannot recommend enough his brand, Senninha. Comics, cartoons, apparel, sneakers, sandals, flip flops... Google Images and Youtube, specially with a VPN set to Brazil, are your friends here. The brand was everywhere growing up.

And his charity work, the Senna Foundation, is brick solid to this day.

Legit the only good livery they've released so far, and still it bugs me that you can't change the red stripes into another color. But by far the only interesting livery design. 

[KNT2011]

Not 100% happy with it, though the nose / front wing turned out really nice looking with this livery. Some parts especially on the backend just don't sit comfortably for me but hey, hopefully we can get some more variations in block colour schemes instead of all these wiggly line liveries we're stuck with at the mo.

[Blent]

Finally got around to capturing my five designs. Each one belonging to fictional teams I've invented in my mind - except for one of them, which is a tribute to a certain Ridge Racer team...

It was a weekly limited livery from a week ago. I think it was called 'Contours', or something similar.

[mitchb121]

My attempt at a livery. Not overly complicated or flashy. Wished we had more choices / freedom on console. 

[SLR MattJXN]

I don't have a pic but I use the all black "Shadow" livery and then change the colors of the sponsor decals.   I think it looks awesome and intimidating.
