Livery Guide

The MRDC livery for 2010B is a simple geometric design, carry forward some of the features from 2010B:

 

  • the stencilled font

  • driver names on the sidepods

  • driver choice of colours

Drivers wishing to race with Midpack Racing Drivers' Club (MRDC) for 2010B and who submit their vehicle form before deadline of 27th March 2010 are invited to customise the colour scheme to suit their own taste and with their own name on the car in appropriate places. My guess is Hoss will use these names to call the races, so choose wisely ! The freeware text used to create this text is included in the skin reference pack see here MRDC2010B-LiveryPack

The reference pack contains a version of the main GMWC template in .psd format, simplified to use the body shape chosen for the MRDC-10B  and with just 4 colour layers where replacing with the chosen colour scheme will produce a custom skin:

1. Key body colour (Black Layer in the .psd)

2. Nose stripe colour (Green Layer in the .psd), which is the colour that will be used as the main accent colour on the stripe in the side flashes.

3. and 4. Two further accent  (White and Black layers in the .psd) that will be used to complete the side flashes, roll bar etc

5. Text replacement for "ANDY" layers (two -off, to put your name on the sidepods)

6. Text colour choice for MRDC (2 off - for the sidepods) and MIDPACK on the rear wing.

There are also a number of shadow layers in the template. My advice is to include or exclude these simply depending on which looks better.

So for the default skin, looks like this, saved without Alpha channel being set. I've found Alphas settings around 20% in GIMP to be suitable.

 To make a car that looks like this:

Similarly, my personal skin goes as 1. White, 2. Red, 3. Green, 4. Black 5. ANDY - Black, 6. MRDC, MIDPACK- Red, to give a car that looks like this:
