Top Gear: McLaren F1 Wallpaper

m_weinerich · April 10th, 2005, 08:28 PM

I really didn't like the burgundy colour on the McLaren, but because it was such a nice pic i decided to do something about it. If you guys other colours just ask.

It was burgundy, you can see it in the calendar thread.
I've thought about other colours and I would like to see it in british racing green.
I'd be fantastic if you can make that happen.

Nice coloring mate. Color changes the character of a car..

I had the old one as my background, but it's been replaced by the green one.

Nice Chop! images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

lovely but

front wheels need to be countersteering and there shouldn't be smoke under the tire, for some reason it makes it look wrong

And we're in 2005 images/smilies/lol.gif

hanasand · April 11th, 2005, 12:21 AM

haha, seriously, it's time for bed. 2004...

And Ren, why don't you fix that countersteering part?... I have to prove
that I still have some sort of life so I'll leave it to you girlfriend images/smilies/lol.gif

Hmm I like the color edit done, but there is one flaw with the original picture, look at the rear tire, its a bit blurry right there. That annoys me, but that is the fault of the photographer. Nice chop otherwise.
