GP4: Lando Norris 2021 British GP Helmet


Lando Norris 2021 British GP Helmet

Here it is, the special helmet used by Lando Norris at the British GP, full of fan messages in support of key workers around the world (plus a few sneaky hidden messages). 

This one set me back about a week, the blueprints that I could find were quite low resolution so I had to get most of my placing done off whatever photos I could find. I felt a bit like a super villian trying to stitch together a secret message from newspaper offcuts. The hardest bit was finding good enough angles to get a clear shot of each message.


Then it was a mix of re-drawing, or blending the messages in, touching up here or there to create the base livery with all the messages on. Then it was a case of embossing Lando's helmet livery on top of it, using the alpha channel to enhance its visibility. 

I added this message, this helmet dedicated to the GP4 community, both modders and players. A special thanks goes to Jvinu for his template. 


This is the first Norris special helmet I've created this year, even though he's had a few, they have been created by other authors. Any further helmets I do will be added to this pack.
