LFS Photomode Competition Round 79: Safety Car on Track

We never exactly finished round 79, so I'll give it a second try. Though I changed the topic which will hopefully get this running better. Also, rules have been updated and there are few new rules added, so read them all carefully.


This rounds theme is... "Safety Car on Track"

Round rules: (made by andRo., these will not be changed)
Make an edit that shows a safety car on track. The car can be alone or together with the row of other cars etc. Basically, make a car looking like a safety car, but the car must be from LFS (it's not allowed to cut/paste the whole car from other IRL images.) Use skins, other materials, that's all up to you. External images are allowed to be used.

Examples:

Cars:
All, except open wheelers, LX's, UF1 & RAC.
Tracks: All

Quote :Competition rules:
  • When you have finished your picture and want to enter it into the competition, please write 'Final Entry' in the relevant post.
  • You must provide a preview picture (no bigger than 400 x 400 pixels) as well as the High Resolution picture. (The preview picture does not have to be exactly 400 x 400 pixels - it can be smaller to maintain the correct aspect ratio [for example, 400 x 300 pixels])
  • No renders, old images or VOB MODS to be used.
  • You may incorporate external non-LFS images into your work, but you MUST give a link to any images used.*
  • You MUST NOT use any LFS screenshot material that does not belong to you. (You are not even allowed to ask others to take a picture for you etc., everything has to be done by you.)*
  • During the voting, you are FORBIDDEN to get more votes in an unfair way. (Asking your team members, friends etc. to vote for you.) If I find out, your image will be removed from the voting and you will not be allowed to take part in the competition. (For how long, that is to be decided by me.)
  • All pictures MUST be uploaded to LFSForum.net, so basically in the attachments. (Other uploading websites are not allowed to be used.) (This is because of the fact, that after some time, the other websites get shut down and pictures in hall of fame or old threads disappear and we can never get to see them again..
  • The winner of the round should explain how he made his edit. This is not a MUST rule, but it would be great for the beginners and also others to learn and see new things. (This means, giving 2-4 images of the steps, the raw screenshot etc. telling the techniques and tools used.)
  • Any entries that will be ignoring 1 or more rules listed above, will not be accepted.

* If these rules are ignored, then the person might be forbidden to take participation in the competition for some time.

Anyone is allowed to post their pictures and take participation in the competition as long as the rules are obeyed.


Competition closes on THURSDAY, 26.05.2011. at 21:00 GMT.
Every round of the competition will last 3 weeks. (18 days to enter, 3 days to vote.)

BONUS *FUN* RULES:

- You must obey the rules
- No b*tching/moaning/arguing


Have fun and good luck! Feel free to discuss the topic, images or ask questions.

Can I suggest another *FUN* rule - that the winner must explain how they created their edit? I'm not suggesting a full run down of exactly what they did in some sort of screencast, but showing the starting image, a couple of screenshots along the way, and what tools and techniques they used would be great to get others interested and more participation IMO. Nothing worse that seeing a great picture and not having a clue how to do it
That's actually a pretty good point. I'll add it a bit later. Thanks! It's good for the beginners to find out how to create good screen shots. And also for others to find out all kinds of different techniques to do something. But then everyone must use .PSD file while editing, otherwise they won't be able to show the steps in the end.

EDIT: Added the rule.
May be not final entry, but tried something

So if I've read the rules properly, there's no need to send a PM with the next round theme anymore? Because just in case I won, I'd always run out of ideas
No, you have to. Usually it is told in the voting thread while posting the results, it has never been in the rules here for the last many, many competitions, but I can put it, just to make things clearer.
You still get to choose the next weeks theme, it has always been like that.
If you are out of ideas, you can ask other for help to think of something.
What is this font skip ? I like it ^^
Great work too
Final Entry

where do we get the safety car from?
It's an edited screenshot. You have to edit it, not get it. You take an LFS car picture by yourself and with picture editing softwares (for example: photoshop) edit the car to look like Safety car. You can use other images from internet to get some stuff for the car (lights etc.), you just cut/paste and align with your original picture. Then post here.

But the skins for the car, well, I think they've been made before for other leagues or public uses, you can search for them in the skins section or wherever it allows you to use them.
Quote from skiper :Final !

could you tell us which font you used for the writing on the car?

I'm Playing on a Laptop and it's just impossible to put it on because the video card is built-in and it's not made for gaming.

Pause the replay where you want the screenshot from, go to options, set everything to highest, take screenshot and then turn back down to where you had it before. No gfx is that bad that it couldn't handle this. :P
