RD Skinning Competition - Voting Open

Paul Jeffrey · Feb 27, 2017

Following our incredibly successful RaceDepartment themed livery competition it is now time for you to vote for your top five designs that should will pass to the final round decision process.

To be perfectly frank I have been simply blown away by the quality of submissions received during this competition. The level of quality and design creativity has been out of this world. We've seen some seriously impressive submissions across a whole range of different machines, from modern day GT3 cars, old school Fiat 500's and even a futuristic concept car, without question the level of quality has been something truly exceptional to behold.

With our submission deadline of February 28th 2pm midnight UK now over, it is up to our readers to vote for your favourite five designs. Once voting closes in seven days time (8/3/17 @ 11:03am) the top five selected liveries will be presented to none other than Stefano Casillo of Kunos Simulazioni, who has very generously agreed to act as our Grand Marshall in this competition. Stefano will be presented with the five community chosen designs and tasked with picking the overall competition winner.

As an additional bonus Stefano has very kindly offered to award the top five submissions a little box of Assetto Corsa treats, with a Kunos cap and t-shirt to be issued to the creators of our top five community voted skins! Thank you Stefano!

So without further ado I am exceptionally pleased to present to you the full list of final submissions for our competition. Please note a vote feature has been added to this article and to select your five favourite designs you will need to ensure the appropriate post number has been checked. You will be allowed to change your vote right up to the voting deadline of 11:03am UK on Wednesday 8th March.

I really do want to stress the fact that the quality of submissions received throughout this event have been simply astonishing. Each and every livery submitted has been of studio quality standard and everyone who has spent the time creating a skin should be immensely proud of yourselves, the quality really has been of the highest standard.

Sorry the layout doesn't suit everyone's tastes....

I am limited by the software we host RD on, and this is the best I can do.

I suggest if you are not willing to look at all the skins then don't bother voting. Seriously biting my tongue to not be rude here. Very sad to read such a small minded response.

I changed my vote, just for the effort you are putting in. Sorry if my response bothered you.
But lets be honest. It is kind of notable that most of the votes are placed on the first page submissions. Might be because the first ones are generically better, or just because of simple marketing guidelines 'too much to read' and 'first page hits are best hits'.

I understand that you are limited by the forum, but then limit the submissions or something (some creators seem to have multiple entries, incomplete entries etc.). Maybe create a 'spotter guide' in post 1 for future competitions. That way people can see all skins, and take a closer look when they feel the need to.

Now that is a golden idea! Will definitely do that in future, excellent!

There seems to be some kind of mistake: My skins are not in the top 5. Some serious hacking needs to be fixed. I can´t think of any possible way where my 4 skins are not in the top 5. Please have a look here @Paul Jeffrey . The number 13 guy is a clear hacker and made my votes become his votes. Just kidding, I really like this competition even if I don´t like me loosing.

@pan-pan rated my post with "haha". He is the hacker and couldn´t find the button for muhaha. I think that I should be an admin as well so I can bring some justice into Racedepartment. I have certain skills is all i´m saying.
