The Trackmania Grand League (TMGL) is the major esport event in Trackmania and is organized by the Ubisoft studio – Nadeo since 2019. The 16 best players from all over the world are fighting each season for one goal: the first place. Each champion is followed by a streamer, that you can watch on Twitch. So, you have the choice between 16 great streamers, in English, French and German languages.
Each season, the TMGL is divided in two stages:
The Season Split: 6 online steps spread over 6 weeks with all 16 players.The Final: Then, Top 8 players of the regular season compete to be the season’s winner.
For the winter season 2021, the second TMGL season on the new Trackmania opus TM 2020, Nadeo commissioned me to design official TMGL liveries as well as a texture mod to enhance the default assets of the game for the different steps. My first thoughts when brainstorming for an artistic direction were to use the default shapes and colors of the corporate in game ads, as well as default TMGL graphic assets. In the end the ideas were very much appreciated, and skins are commonly used by players in game, still to this day.
I am grateful to Nadeo for putting their trust in me and giving me this opportunity, again.
