I thought it would be nice to take on a harder challenge to replicate something more recent, which I have decided to make the 2020 Iron Dames and Iron Lynx cars which are currently competing in this year's European Le Mans Series.
The skins are roughly based on the real one because there are only so much available reference photos available (top-down angle photos of both cars are non-existent) and the first-reveal designs were far from accurate. Moreover, having access to stupidly high-res photos from the series' media site is impossible as I don't have European media credentials, moreover living in Southeast Asia and being a former motoring editor from a lesser-known title doesn't help much either.
So, from whatever I could gather from the interwebs, the designs were roughly interpreted from ground-level images albeit mostly in low-resolution, while small details like the sponsor logo and driver name positions are referenced through the team's social media postings.
Besides that, the skins have their own reflection maps to emulate the contrast between the matte background and the glossy 'Lynx' liveries. Best enjoyed with CSP and Sol.
The first livery I started with is the Iron Dames car because I'm a fan and what the team stood for. I also feel that FIA's Women in Motorsport Initiative needs more attention and the sport needs more female representation as well as in esports
. Moreover, the past and current Iron Lynx liveries stood out from the rest.
Anyway, to install, unzip the zip file and drop them in the assettocorsa\content\cars\ks_ferrari_488_gt3\skins\ folder.
Much thanks and enjoy!
