Thanks Guy BlueSummers! I aim to please

Here's my next concept. Based on a Porsche Carerra.

I was looking for some tough looking vehicles on-line and I found this bad boy and it just screamed Twisted Metal to me!!!

I'm not going to do this for my vehicle submission but I thought I should share some inspiration!

Hey, everybody. First post on the Threedy forums ( better later than never)...

I'm announcing my entry into this challenge, I'll be doing both driver and vehicle. I am going to post some concept sketches later today.

I have two questions, though:

If we're opting for a closed vehicle, is it mandatory to model the interior as well (if it's not that relevant to the overall design , of course) ?

If the vehicle and driver go hand in hand, do I have to post WIP shots in both threads, or is it ok if I keep things in one thread only and then post my images in the final entries threads for both categories?

Good luck, everybody, and looking forward to seeing your awesome work!

Cheers,
Vlad

Hey! I decided to make both driver, and vehicle. my idea is about a swift racer, with less armor, but more speed. speed = motors. i've seen a motor in barcelona during the summer, i made a LOT of ref. pictures with my camera, so i can do all the little parts. i think it will eat all the tris given nicely. (if i can do all the 'changes' on the motor i want to)
so here is one pic, of the cycle i'm gonna make.

oh, yeah.. and my racer is from the sun planet.. i think it tells a lot about my idea...

FrZnChAoS: Thanks! I may do that one, or I may decide to do something more road-warrior-y.. something more like Road Kill from twisted metal 2... still can't decide, lol

CaseyD2K: Awesome inspiration. That's one hardcore truck. I just looked at your profile on CGTalk and man, you have mad sketching skills! Really awesome work there.

vlad_flyzzz: Welcome aboard! As for modelling the interior of your vehicle, I'm sure that's up to you, it's your concept that you're realizing. About the WIPs, sorry I'm not qualified to answer that, but I'm sure a Mod will be more than happy to

I'm really leaning towards doing an Earth car.. or a tire car as the brief reads. It would be really cool to do an alien driver, but I just can't tear myself away from the Twisted Metal idea, lol.

vlad_flyzzz: if no one will see the inside, then you dont need to model it. As for the wips, you need to post your vehicle wips in the vehicle wip thread, and your driver wips in the driver wip thread.

Thanks!! 2D is more of my forte, which is why i am trying to beef up my 3D skills more lately!

Here is a compilation of my reference so far! I am going to try an Armored Monster Jeep a la Twisted Metal:



Fortunately, I found a couple good front and side view pics as well so i can use those as the base for my orthos! I'm working on my driver right now as well and I hope to have him up either today or tomorrow.

[Tuss4]

what I'm going to base my concept on witness the pwnage:

[vicban3d]

After skipping the last two comps I decided to participate in this one. My idea is an alien hover-board(Will probably also model an alien hover-boarder).
Progress so far:
