Hi all, just thought I would show my 2013 car, it is very simple, but this is for CFD reasons, that there is no point in making something over complex before understanding it all, so I will develop it with CFD and see where it ends up

nice and clean design. Only thing that I don't really like is those huge cascades.

But, you said that you will develope it more so I will wait and see how final version will look like

Yeah, I thought about it, and I thought I would rather keep it clean and simple, start with simple cascades and develop them

what did you use to do the colours and render? looks great

Kerkythea renderer

how did you do the gills in your rear wing endplates, its the one thing i can't do which gives results

ahh, I have been asked that once before, and I can honestly say, it takes an age, firstly you need to look at current f1 gills in detail to see how they work and what they look like, then I just made a hole, then added a Louver

heres a close up image:

i see you've got your cfd results back, will you post them so we can see the sort of data we will get back?

Yes I have , the results are good, they no doubt will be put on the website and here, also the laptime round Monaco is good, keep an eye out

Thought I might treat you to a new render, more colours! (I made the gold myself in kerkythea)

Very nice, but is there supposed to be gold on the wheels??

I don't think the Gold matches the Black too well in this instance however opinions vary. I like your car and yeah is there supposed to be Gold on the wheels?

I like the gold, but the wheels went wrong for some reason, possibly the shininess I put on the wheels, I will amend it at a later date,

i'm willing to offer you help with the paint design, i have experience painting rfactor cars.
