Can I get an opinon?

Post by RyanT537 »

Background story. Feel free to read or just leave a comment :)

This is the end of my first week with Mx Simulator and I wanted to try to make some graphics. I've been learning a lot about certain files like jms. or safs. etc etc.. Proper naming of saved files and transferring files to the game and all sorts of other stuff that all new players have had to learn. I really wanted to take a swing at making some graphics for a bike on the game though because I would like to be a professional graphic designer someday with enough practice. Little did I know that the first bike I was working on was actually a ripped model. It was Andy Hack's kx 250f that my friend linked me to on pure mxs. I had no idea and as soon as I found out it was ripped I was pissed off so I scrapped all my work and apologized to Andy for even working on it. If your reading this Andy sorry again dude I didn't know. SO after that, I got the template for the 2013 RMZ 250 from I believe his name is Attacker? Sorry still trying to learn peoples names. Anyway I wanted to make a graphics kit that resembles or is a spin off of my team in real life. Longmont 3rd and Alpine Ford of Colorado Mx team. I wanted to know a few things.FIRST.... Am I allowed to make this kit without pissing anyone off? Its not ripped or anything? Is this ok to do? SECOND.... For my first attempt what do you guys think of this preview? Any thoughts about it at all? LASTLY... There are some really talented skinners on here and I would greatly appreciate any input you guys have as to make the kit better? Please no mean comments below. I'm trying to learn just like everyone else had to when they were starting out. First week on the game was great. Can't wait to get more involved with the community over time. :)

This kit is a spin off. The only part that is replicated is the ford logo in that position kind of lol. No one on the team is on an RM so the team graphics were never made for Suzuki. Its not so much a replica kit as more my interpretation of what a Rm would look like if the team had any. Does that make sense. If I had an original kit for you I would post it. I can link you last years kit that was on my bike if that would work? This is a picture of the shroud from my old bike. I may try to do a replica kit but I don't like the idea of re making it. I like to start fresh.

If you could get me a PSD for a 2014 kx 250 that would be outstanding. As long as its ok to use it and make some graphics I would love to work on the green machine again. :) That would be so sick. By all means link me to the template. Even if its just a PNG I can work with it.

Thanks for the link. I will see what I can do. I definitely want to make a solid Rm before anything else seeing as I have 5 templates in the works for the bike and roughly 5 hours on each lol. Thanks again.
