have been kinda split on whether I shall dump the screencaps in this thread, or the KoP-topic, and decided to spam them in the KoP topic after all, since they do not belong to art of rally.
the only livery that really fits the tone/this topic is the TVR Sagaris with the Ace Combat universe livery. I wanted this car to look like it could mingle among Ridge Racer liveries, so first I needed a car that could pass off as a faux/virtual car only, and the TVR fit that bill. Lowered suspension, rear wing + front wing, tuned to some class limit iirc and that was it for the car.
The camo-inspired paintjob was a nod to the sponsor, Gründer Industries, a weapon manufacturer in the AC-universe. IDK if back then FM3/FM4 also came with a camo-livery by default, like FM7/FH4 (FH3 also iirc) nowadays do, but I wanted the angular paintjob to mask some of the flowing lines of the car. The blocks used for the camo-livery maybe is a design from one of the AC Zero planes, not too sure anymore.
Random stacking of the elements on both sides means the cameo does not properly wrap around, but that’s masked kinda well by the busy lines, and as a whole, it kinda blended in well with the wild creases in the bonnet/rear fenders.
OBC logo is straight from AC Zero cutscenes, so both sponsors are canon, whereas Samsung obv isn’t - I had been close to the limit on one of the sides (not all surfaces allowed 1000 objects in FM3), but at least the location (airforce base) is canon as well (n.b.: 24h race on an airforce base … if you think of the sebring 12h, it surely must be brutal on the cars, not sure if the Sagaris would last, but since the location is in the mountains 
) The racing-number… might have been an air squad, not so sure about that.
Racing that car on the track where these pictures were taken was nice, since there were some places where sun/shadow were cast across the track, and made the livery look even more camo-esque.
In hindsight, I am pretty pleased with it, considering that it has been a decade+ ago.
so much for the faux Ace Combat universe liveries…
