For all of you who don't know, the real car looks like this:

So, Bentley!
That's a really nice skin. I would have liked to see those side white lines a bit smoother, but what can you expect? The decals and design really correspond nicely. You're off to a good start.

What program do you use to create your skins? I really think you should clean up those edges. The original Exp Speed 8 just doesn't work with that edge "effect." If your image editing program allows you to, use the filters, effects, etc. to its greatest extent. You might want to bevel the edges a bit, make some parts of the tank literally look like they are standing out.

Other than that, I can really tell that you paid attention to the original model as you made these skins. The skin you made looks like its little son! lol.

@ all: thnk for the response! oh and it might be a while before i finish the other EXP speed 8 skins

@ Speedo: i use photoshop, im consulting with my dad on getting rid of the rough edges and i have a 1:18th scale EXP speed 8 just like the one in ur picture only the side scoops are slightly different and the rear wing supports are bigger (mine is based off the Le Mans model. The one in ur pic is the Sebring 12hrs race model)

*bumpalicious*
here are some brain parts for an upcoming skin. the brain is modeled after a 1930's- style-racing helmet (clue, people)

I think that the car skins are different than anyone else ever made.
