@supla007: very nice helmet, i love it! can you make a edition with a german flag on the top and without lotus logos? ^^

Spent the whole afternoon making this...the helmet for my Caterham career. Making a simple helmet for a beginner like me has proven to be quite challenging, so huge thanks to those modders out there, god knows how much effort they put in their work, also credit ML for the helmet template.

Very nice work there Hei, really good for a beginner.

Thanks! I use Photoshop for editing photos quite often, but making texture for 3D model is really my first time.

Awesome helmets guys!
Here are mine. ML's helmet file made painting very easy. Thanks a lot for that

Good to see some great talents on RD. Keep it up!

This is my bet on Lotus.

Very nice. Mercedes one would be quite nice too.

Spent some time updating my helmet to something a bit less simplistic.

@zelimper: wow, that pattern must have taken a while to apply - very nice job. My hat's off to you

 

[Thimoty Decrans]

actually, that was the fastest , created a pattern out of this seamless dragons.

. had more work with the lines and the decals

After getting hold of the Templates from ML2166 I thought I'd try my hand at this.
As I have next to no PS experience I decided to try and make Jorge Lorenzo's Helmet as it's relatively straight forward design. It's not 100% accurate and some of the decals are off. I wanted a more accurate X-Lite one but couldn't find one. 1st effort is a 3 out of 10 but will hopefully get better.

This helmet looks ok in game too but suffers from major visor reflections.

Great job Fija. Everybody starts somewhere. Keep on doing stuff and experimenting things and youll be creating even greater designs in no time

Update to my helmet, think I'm almost done LOL

All career helmets suffer from white visor syndrome.

It's because the career visors are not aimed at a texture in game,unlike the actual driver helmets which are.

I've been trying to sort this out with the help of Ryder, and playing around with speccoc file etc, but as yet haven't found a solution.

It doesn't matter even if you paint the visor completely black.....it still shines like a lighthouse in game.

ML2166 I've been meaning to ask you, if you look at my helmet pic above how do I get rid of the shape around the visor bolt? I've tried every layer but can't get rid of it

If you look at the wireframe on the 2D template, you'll see this shape.

Best way is to pick a colour that is on you visor near to where the bolt would be, and then just circle around the bolt with a selection tool and paint away the black using the colour you picked from your visor.

You'll only remove the colour, cannot remove the shape.

How do you make a 2D template with the helmets?

It's already in with the 3d Model.

You just need to open in up from the layers palette on the right.

Thanks buddy, you're always kind to help
