2023 F1 Helmet Set by fongu


Here it is, the complete 2023 helmet base set. Hülkenberg's helmet is now complete, along with changes to Ocon's, Norris', Hamilton's and Alonso's helmet. 

I've also included Bahrain GP variations to Albon (more pink), Hamilton (rainbow flag), Stroll (chrome parts instead of white), Leclerc (dark red gradient and new logo), and of course Russell's bright green helmet. 

As usual, thanks to Jvinu for the helmet templates and these are compatible with ACSPRH v1.

GP4: 2023 Helmets v0.9 released

2023 F1 Helmet Set by fongu


The new 2023 season begins this weekend, so I'm delighted to be able to share with you my 2023 helmet set for GP4 and ACSPRH v1. 

These helmets are painted on Jvinu's helmet shapes and templates and I'm indebted to his fantastic work. 

This is version 0.9, because it's not quite finished. Most noticably Hulkenberg's helmet hasn't got the paint splashes on yet; sorry, I simply ran out of time. The front of Russell's helmet changed during testing, and that hasn't been updated on my version yet. Still, I hope you prefer playing with a mostly complete set whilst I finish them off after the first race. 

Except for Norris' helmet, I have created each helmet from scratch, there were very few recycled parts from last season's helmets. I've made improvements to my scaling, particularly working along the seams and I'm continuing to improve my techniques and skills. 

I hope you enjoy these helmets, I've tried hard to complete the set in time for the new season. This season I include tga files for those who wish to convert them to other games. Please remember to credit me.
