Forza 2: custom paint scheme edition

Forza 2: custom paint scheme edition photo
     Destructoid

I'd first like to apologize to everyone for my absence from Destructoid most of the day. Unfortunately Forza 2 has pretty much owned my soul since I picked it up on Thursday. Never mind the scores sites are giving the game. I'm here to focus on some of the great user created car paint schemes, as seen on the Forzamotorsport forums.

Take one look a the Okami car and then tell me that you wouldn't want to drive around in that classy ride? If that doesn't do it for you, there's always the Reggie inspired Bruce Lee (or is it Reggie Wii?) car. Don't even get my started on the Batman and Robin theme. Needless to say, this whole thing turned some gears in my own head.

Wouldn't it be nice to see a  team of Destructoid cars on the tracks? I lack the necessary talent, but I'm willing to bet that you the readers can more than make up for that. So what do you say? Let's get cranking on those Dtoid cars and start spreading the gospel of the apostle Niero -- one track at a time.

If you guys want to see this as a contest, run it by they guys, and see what they say. Is there a community interest in this?

So these are all done by hand? Damn, I was hoping I could just slap Mokoto Kusanagi on a car if I ever got my hands on Forza 2.

Jimjo-

Just click down on the left stick and select evey shape in the image with the A button. Then you can select the highlighted layers and move it anywhere you want. :)
