SJGP Contest Update

A few new rules/clarifications:
You can enter as many cars as you want..let creativity reign.
The organization is now known as the "Canary Foundation", not the "Canary Fund". You can get a good idea of the colors and the logo here: http://www.canaryfoundation.org
Logos for the organization and the race are on the way.

SJGP Showcar Contest!

Hello everyone! First of all I have to give thanks to Mapman for setting up the blog, and second for relaying the SJGP Contest details. This is certainly too cool to pass up! Me being a 2D artist certainly gets the short end of the stick when it comes to these competitions, simply because everything looks better in 3 Dimensions. But a challenge is a challenge indeed.

I'm off to come up with a design now... But I am secretly pulling for a CCF member to win this thing! Crappies unite! :)

FantasyLiveries.com and the San Jose Grand Prix announce show car design contest!

San Jose Grand Prix Show Car Design Challenge

We’d like *you* to create a livery for San Jose Grand Prix’s show car. The show car is used at events all around the San Francisco Bay Area year round. It is used to promote the San Jose Grand Prix and to promote Canary Foundation, the official social cause of Champ Car. It needs an updated paint scheme and we’d like you to design it. Submit your designs via e-mail to Dale Jantzen at dale at sjgp.com by 5/31/2006. SJGP will select a winning design and the winner agrees to assign rights to the winning design to SJGP. SJGP may use the design on its show car at its discretion.



The show car is a 2000 era Reynard. I am looking for primary branding for “Canary Foundation” with secondary branding for “San Jose Grand Prix.” In addition to the names and logos, I’d like the following messages on the car.

“Stopping Cancer Early – The Best Possible Investment”

“July 28 – 30, 2006”

www.sjgp.com”

The base color should remain yellow and Canary’s official accent colors are purple and grey.

1. Pantone Hexachrome Yellow or c0 m0 y100 k0
hexadecimal: FFCC00

2. PMS 526 or c79 94 y11 k 0
hexadecimal: 663366

3. "Grey" 40% of black
hexadecimal: 999999

Grand Prize: 2 tickets to the 2006 San Jose Grand Prix presented by Taylor Woodrow


-----------------------

This is open to anyone, whether you're on the Fantasy Liveries site or not. I don't think 3d or 2d makes a difference, it's all about good design! Good luck, and this is too cool
