Front Runner Logo

At this point it is unknown if Front Runner or Front Runner: Jurassic Racing will ever release. The former one is a racing game set in the present with no fantasy elements. Jurassic Racing is obviously a racing game involving dinosaurs and other fantasy elements. For the Front Runner title we needed a logo that is simple, but also usable in case other Front Runner titles would've been created.


Racing Track Concepts

I developed 2D map concepts for race tracks set in a Jurassic theme, blending thrilling race dynamics with prehistoric landscapes. These designs incorporated elements such as dense jungles, towering waterfalls, and ancient ruins, creating an immersive and visually captivating experience for players.


Racing Car Skins

Skins have become a significant aspect of modern gaming, allowing players to customize their weapons, characters, vehicles, and more. For Front Runner, we aimed to offer a wide range of unlockable skins. Each skin shown below was meticulously created in Photoshop. Given that the textures are 2D while the car models are 3D, achieving the desired results required considerable trial and error to perfect the designs.

Summer Vibes

This summer themed skin is one of the skins that took a longer time than the others to create, due to all the small illustrations.

SPQR

This might be one of my favorite designs I've ever made. The car looks quite square, so I had the idea to place the roman shield illustrations on the car.

P40

A skin based on P40 plane with the Shark Mouth decals.

Sakura

This skin is based on the Japanese Sakura tree

Safari

This skin is based on the safari car/park ranger car from India.

Legacy

A skin based on the most iconic F1 car ever. We made a lot of changes to make it legal.

Coffee Queen

This skin is based on a famous coffee franchise. The Coffee Queen logo is both a coffee cup and a face.

Gaming Cat

There are lots of people that love cats. This skin however is more of a reference to the large PSVR Gaming Cats community. The skin is full of easter eggs and references.

The Phoenix

Add flames and it makes it look hot!

Honor Racing

Honor Racing is meant to be a fictional version of Honda Racing. The skin is just a simple racing skin.

Rusty

The Rusty skin embodies a retro 90s aesthetic. The rust effect isn't intended to look like real rust; instead, it is designed to appear as part of the vehicle's wrap. The skin still features a concept logo on the sides, which was planned to be replaced at a later stage.

Blue Cats

This car skin is based on a famous F1 team's car.

Sheriff

A skin based on the western theme.

Legend

This is a skin to honor a movie legend.

Dropship

A car skin based on another title we created. The skin makes the car look like a spaceship.

Zombie Outbreak

This skin is sort of a placeholder. The goal is to have 3D elements attached to the car. For now those are 2D decals.

Other Liveries/Skins

There are plenty of other skins that might make it in the game or not. You can see them below.
