Absolutely beautiful, thank you for your work.

Out of interest, what graphics package do you use to make your GP2 liveries? My attempts always turn out horrendously blurred, especially logos.

Dandelion available here in .png format, should convert correctly.

Would prefer the Eastern Racing Associates car to have some Jagonya Ayam recognition considering that was the whole basis of the sponsorship deal, but if it's too much work just leave it.

As slightly-intoxicated me forgot, Ataxia is completely correct. Could you please replace the white and HSBC logos with yellow and Jagonya Ayam! branding.

Apologies for my stupidity.

There's a lot of empty space on the livery, so it's possible to have both.
UPDATE: it's done:

If your wondering which program I use, it's GIMP and the reason it's not blurred is that a lot of the logos are modified by hand, pixel-by-pixel

I've has to fix a few things such as the suspension arms and the front of the airbox and sidepods to match the carshape, (and the bottom race numbers were in the wrong order) but the rest of the livery is fine. However, when I converted it to an 8-Bit palette, the stone blue-grey became more of a dark grey. It still looks okay, but here's a picture if you want to change the colour:

Note: All of the sponsor Logos are very pixelated. Unless if this is OK enough Would it be possible for you to replace those logos with much clearer ones? Here are the links below of the logos need replacing:

That livery's not going to work at all, I'm afraid; GP2 simply doesn't do purple, so it'll come out brown in-game.

This Could Be You · Post by **This Could Be You** » 29 Dec 2016, 11:07

I have modified the Fujibayashi livery to A) work with GP2 (the purple becomes more of a fuchsia) and B) fit the sponsors on to the livery without much blurring (with the help of some more white sections). The revised link is here and a preview is below:

I can only assume you've checked it in the GP2Edit preview, I guarantee it'll go puke-brown in the actual game! If you don't mind horrible hues, of course, then you'll like it

It's actually quite a nice shade of puke-gold to be honest, but I guess that's not what Gonzalez was aiming for- I'll change it to blue.

Looks like Purple is now not a good colour of choice for any GP2 mod, I shall just stick in with blue without making any more changes. Cheers for that though.

[EDIT] I gave it a try.

P.S.: Narita Engineering could make use of some sponsors. I have not added any sponsor (or number), because I'm waiting peteroli answer something. I also have not found a logo for Nomura Mechanics.

Ciaran · Post by **Ciaran** » 30 Dec 2016, 23:02

Dammit, I messed up my livery attempt. Somehow the template shrank while I was editing it. :facepalm:

The car is meant to be blue with a white stripe running along the front nosecone and cockpit, and a white accent along the fin of the engine cover.

Um... you forgot the race numbers, John Rafael...

It doesn't matter though, as I have fixed it: (link here)

Gonzalez · Post by **Gonzalez** » 31 Dec 2016, 12:29

This Could Be You, I think there is something missing that could have been very important to running a series. You could of use RNG to decide the outcome of Real Life Drivers like Daniel Nielsen Frost, Muizzuddin Gafar etc. Some of the Drivers signed in your series are actually from Real Life and you've put them in straight away. Most members (or I would rather say All Members) who runs a series always use RNG.

Also, since you didn't mention any specific drivers you are allowing in terms of Canon and Real life Drivers, I am also not sure if this is either a Canon-only series or a series allowing Real Life Drivers in.

In other words, for this time being, I will be bringing a brand new driver of mine to fill in the slot for my team, Sakura Sekai.

This Could Be You · Post by **This Could Be You** » 31 Dec 2016, 15:05

Knew I forgot something. :facepalm:

I'll do them now:

Danial Nielsen Frost
1-50 Accepts, 51-100 Rejects
Result=2 - Accepts
Presley Martono
1-50 Accepts, 51-100 Rejects
22 - Accepts
Isyraf Danish
1-50 Accepts, 51-100 Rejects
95- Rejects
Muizzuddin Gafar
1-50 Accepts, 51-100 Rejects
31- Accepts

Luxray will therefore need to find a new driver for the #28 car (You don't need to get this done by tonight, though soon would be helpful)

Apologies for any confusion and new driver procurement this has caused (this will not occur again as later real driver bids will immediately be put through the RNG), and thanks to Gonzalez for pointing this out.

He's sold you a dummy.

Driver RNG is done at the end of the signing window, so that multiple bids from different teams can be considered together if necessary. Rather than the second an offer is lodged.

I didn't phrase that all that well- as there are only two teams left without a full lineup and they are unlikely to bid for the same Real-life driver, I'd be able to run an RNG over whether said driver accepts the (presumably only) offer from said team in this series. Obviously this would probably have to be done near the end of the window normally (as it was this time) so that all offers for said driver are in. I feel this is reasonable (if unfair due to the short notice- I'll put a warning over the tentative nature of signing real-life drivers on the start post for next season to avoid this).

Anyway, it's just sorted itself out: Kano has taken the seat at Dandelion, meaning Kayra Clifton is presumably in at Luxray, and all driver lineups are confirmed!

You know what, It's probably for the best if Isyraf Danish does drive for Luxray and an exception is made due to poorly clarified rules, which will be fixed for 2020. That way all driver lineups are filled. Sorry for the further inconvenience.

TBH, I haven't thought of any sponsors. I thought that in this universe the major Korean companies like LG, Samsung and Hyundai couldn't give a crap about this team, and I didn't know any minor Korean sponsors who could fill in the gaps.

Besides all that, it's a great livery.

Avoiding car brands, since the car have a Toyota (TOM'S) engine, I'd go with Samsung (Electronics), Korean Air (Airline) and POSCO (Steel).
