For the past couple of days, I've been getting into some designing on Forza Motorsport 7, and I figured I may as well do something Australian. What I have done is recreated the livery of Peter Brock's VH Commodore that won the 1982 James Hardie 1000 on the 2017 VF Commodore.
Personally, I'm happy with how it turned out. It took some time creating some decals so I could actually share this on the Storefront, but I got there in the end.
EDIT: I've chosen to make this a thing, now. There's more on the way...

Janelle and I took in Wolf Parade at the Commodore Ballroom last night. I'm not in love with either of Wolf Parade's full-lengths, but I love individual tracks on each. And after seeing them perform, I think I'd happily pick up a live album. Several tracks I'd given only a cursory listen on my iPod jumped out when I watched them on stage, and they sounded really tight as a band. The only downer was keyboardist-vocalist Spencer Krug passive-aggressively taunting the crowd between tracks -- apparently the sight of a sold-out Commodore Ballroom cheering and having a good time wasn't enough. And people did, indeed, seem to be having a good time, even if Vancouver really does seem to be too insecure to dance at indie neo-prog-rock concerts.

Seen here on 29th December 2021 is the Commodore Cinema in Star Street, Ryde, which opened in August 1936. At the time of opening, the Commodore was the largest cinema built on the island, having a seating capacity of 1,507 in stalls and circle levels. It was operated as an independent cinema by Ryde Cinema Ltd, a subsidiary of Southern Cinemas Ltd. It was fitted with full stage facilities and there was a cafe and a ballroom inside the building.
In 1962 it was acquired by Isle of Wight Theatres Ltd, and then in October 1965 was taken over by the Star Cinemas circuit of Leeds. They sub-divided the building into a bingo club in the former stalls area and a twin-screen cinema in the former circle, each seating 184. The ballroom was converted into Screen 3, which has a seating capacity of 176. It was taken over by the Cannon Group and re-named Cannon. The 3-screen Cannon was closed in September 1987, but the bingo club remained open.
Ten years later, the cinema section was taken over by Peter Walker and re-opened on 11th December 1997 as the Picturedrome. It was then operated by the independent chain Reeltime Cinemas. It continues today operated by Leo Leisure, as does the Cascade Bingo Club in the former stalls area. It is well known as one of the cheapest cinemas in the country, with an average ticket to see a current release being £4.00!
