Alex's Hall of 90's Goodness

[thealexmill]

Hello all, new to here but nowhere near new to NR.

In April this year, I started a mock series that started in 1990, now heading soon into 1991. Of course there have been changes from the real world, so I've made paint schemes, decided to share them here(when the season is over I plan to post all of the schemes I make for download here).

CREDITS FOR ALL SCHEMES IN THIS THREAD:
Cup90 Templates and mod - The DMR crew
Blender Scene - Made by me using the models by DMR
Logo's - Google Images, Stunod, SRD, MasGrafx, Racin Grafix, Big Evil, some by me
Numbers - Big Evil, some by me



Anyways now that that's all out of the way, let's get the ball rolling. Here's a batch or real life schemes I made to help fill out entry lists for the 1991 season.
- The Delma Cowart is based off of his early 90's cars, not fully accurate but it's good enough to a part time car that won't get much attention anyways.
- The 63 is Norm Benning, he entered one race in 1991, being the July Pocono race, but DNQ'd. I have found 0 pictures of the car on the internet anywhere, I even attempted to reach out to Norm himself to see if he can recall what the car looked like with no success. All I know from racing-reference is it was a #63 Lumina, so that's what I made.
- The 69 is Dorsey Schroeder, he entered the Daytona 500 in his own car, I couldn't find any pictures of the cup car online, but found an image of his ARCA car from 1991, so close enough, and that is what the car is based on.
- The 85 is Bobby Gerhart's car, he attempted 2 races and DNQ'd both. Like Schroeder, I couldn't find any images of the cup car, but did find images of his ARCA car, so based this off of that. Luckily for me, I found a slot car decal set for this car online, which I promptly used to help make the number and main sponsor logo.

In this mock, Ernie Irvan never went to the #4 car in 1990. He instead continued making part time starts for Junie Donlavey in the #90 Thunderbird, and was so successful(multiple good results and showed a lot of speed), that he will pilot the ride full time in 1991. Valvoline, NAPA, and Best Western will all sponsor, with Valvoline being the primary for a majority of the races(around 20 of the 29).

Chuck Bown won the 1990 BGN title in this just like real life, I didn't feel like having Mike Alexander run the full season in the #12 again, so as a reward for being champ Chuck Bown will drive the Bobby Allison Motorsports #12 for all the Cup/BGN combo weekend events.

A far of Bobby Hamilton schemes, created because I accidentally dug myself into a hole by having Country Time stay on the #30. Inspired by these old diecast cars I had as a kid, I have no clue what brand, they were like 1:43rd scale, but there was a blue pepsi one and a white diet pepsi one, both with no numbers, I'll have to see if I can find any pictures of them.

Managed to find pictures of them, obviously the NR ones aren't 100%, but I was going off of foggy memories of toy cars I haven't seen since I was like 7.
