I feel like I’m not even playing the same game. Madman.

When I saw the Vendetta, I realized that it bore a strong resemblance to the RC5 introduced in CSR 144; the Tiburon S5, meanwhile, is virtually identical to your CSR 145 submission (which, unlike the RC5, actually won the round in which it was entered). I suspect that each of these is a new trim of a model you originally created for a CSR.

As for the Matador, it reminds me a futurized 2035 equivalent of a Plymouth/Chrysler Prowler, right down to the centrally-mounted instrument panel, but what body did you use as a base for that build? Please correct me if I’m wrong, but my best guess is that it’s built on the '05 C7 Stingray-esque body (specifically, the larger of the two available in-game). At any rate, the Matador has to be one of your most ambitious (and amazing) designs yet.

Guys, I’ve just received a notification on my smartphone from somebody which tells is Frank Stevenson with a quite suspicious phone number, saying something about my Category J submission… If somebody has received a similar thing, I wouldn’t recommend to open it because I think it is a scam or something like this

If you don’t mind DMing this to me, that would be appreciated.

PLEASE SHARE THIS MOD IT’S LIKE THE NEW PLYMOTH PROWLER!

I don’t think that’s a mod, it looks like they built that car by hand with 3D fixtures (which is really impressive, props to you mate).

What’s the plan for the rest of the releases again, I seem to have heard once after this it’s gonna be one premiere every day or every other day…? Is that plan still on?

In which case there will be a flurry of activity in the community happening regularly from tonight that I won’t be able to take part in because the videos will premiere at 2AM for me :’)

The plan has changed a little bit; releases will now be every three days, instead of every other day. So Category B will go on Saturday at 1900UTC!

Great stuff! I’ll have a longer look at the roundtable, too.
Thrilled to make it to the finals, honestly didn’t expect to.

The Cricket was inspired by the original Abarth 695 SS, hence the sporty look. I did plan to make a “regular” version to complement it and to submit as a second entrant alongside, but life just didn’t leave time.

The paint, honestly, looks horrific and I’m grateful you were as mellow as you were about it. It was intended to be a kind of light beige. Was that way on both of the screens in my house, so I need to look into calibrating them I guess.

Edit: It’s pink in the video on my screen, so it could be something about the photoscenes or graphics settings I use. I’m a little shell shocked by the pink, honestly.
