Twisted Extreme Sports - Character - eRaDiCaT0r

[kakikukeko]

I would say this comic is a manga,
gunnm maybe ;)
but i can't guess what sport you're gonna do yet

CU

[eRaDiCaT0r]

okay, you found my reference darn...but yeah gunm, alita - angel of chaos compilation book to be exact. I plan to mod the vehicle with more details but keeping its style intact.

I guess can't tell exactly yet how its gonna be used till more info/images is up....

[eRaDiCaT0r]

Heres some screenshots - just a rough poly I whipped up to quickly visuallize mass and shape.

The character sketch comming up ...

oops....guess can't post an image up here... anyway, got around to doing the rider of the bike and a helmet profile.

[drunkenmaster20]

well it ceratinly isn't fly fishing. Some sort of racing event, I should think. But is there a twist?

nice start on the model, btw.

[CactusJack]

good start...but want more!

[eRaDiCaT0r]

This is a screenshot of the wheel at smooth, I plan on it to be big, wide and have knobby tires (since it rides on only one wheel... ::D ) plus big threads on this so it shows it can handle any sort of terrain. Still thinking how to go about connecting it to the next part since the original looked at little to stylish and thin to be for rugged use.

Here is an extra shot of it at low poly with wire-frame.

I must note I have been slacking this summer and am using this challenge to make myself come to the lab to run maya. So please anyone who wants to offer advice on my poly-modelling please do (reason for including the wireframe) anyway I find myself doing things the hard way trying to emulate an-actual working part that probably won't be seen (but thats good isnt it?) okay enuff talk...must sleep...

[caldeira]

::Reserved for sketches::

well, this was reserved for props for the sport, nehuuz...checky more downy da scrolly pagey okie-day :D

[eRaDiCaT0r]

:hmm:...got busy today...a small update, a little more refinement on the rough model post up later on tonite...:hmm:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

I found myself staring at the screen too long... , figure I post this drafting phase still...(ugh... debating whether the character should be male or female) :hmm:
.....neway here is where I left off just now...just re-workin my rough-model, little more defined on areas...engine, exhaust, shocks...etc...

:buttrock:


note: working on a good smooth-poly version (working part by part) I noticed takes up more time so I decided to concentrate on tweaking the rough instead of building part by part... ohwellz I hope to finish this at the deadline with texturing :hmm:

[CactusJack]

Model is looking great!
I vote for a female char!
:beer:

[Benno]

I really like the concept behind the vehicle. Must be gyro balanced huh? What sport is it used for though or maybe you havn't invented that part yet!! Model on dude!

Benno.:cool:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

To:

Catus Jack - :hmm: I originally was thinking of a female character with blantantly sized bo0bies ..mebe...hehe

Benno - Can't reveal that part yet, but I do have something along the lines of a kind of race, I am taking this a little serious in other words not to comical, but who knows, might change later..its only the first week so far...and more props to create...ugh ugh

I am hoping by end of the weekend to have decided on the look of the character... wait-n-see

:buttrock:

[CactusJack]

Like the sound of that!

"a female character with blantantly sized bo0bies"
Cn't get any more extreme than that, eh?

Would that tie into the extreme sport somehow?
Hehe...it'd be cool if it did...:applause:

[Beastie]

I like! cool bikes! :)

[rondo]

Cool bike! Can see that thing jumping all over the place!

I vote for a girl too!!!

[paconavarro]

Great design... very nice :)

[Erik]

Hey good idea !!! thumbsup: i personnaly have a Harley... could you put something like a V twin motor :cool:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

hey erik, well I happen to be studying the yamaha V-MAX (reference) coincidently, it is a V-Twin on steroids, but yeah possibllity is there once I figure how to incoporate it..oh well, can't have armor all over it, otherwise it would look like a insect-mech from the roughs. :wip:

still in wip...

[Satyricon]

Nice work so far my friend! Keep up like that!!!:thumbsup:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

small update:

WIP - Exhaust and Rear Suspension, more tweakin...:hmm:

[dur23]

Thats looking might sexy. I love the shape and design of the wheel area.
Overall it kinda makes me think of some kinda bug, which in my opinion is damn cool....more vehicles should be designed from nature!!!

thumbs up!:thumbsup:

[Satyricon]

Great industrial design! Wish I had this bike!!:buttrock:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

Here is a draft sketch of the rider for the bike and a helmet profile. better start crackin' :beer:

[eRaDiCaT0r]

update: bike almost completed...been werkin on it peicemeal at a time posting up soon, now that I got the bike Im gonna start on the rider and other props.

heres an object thats gonna be used in the game to score:

and yes for those that know it its from that comic again... ;-p i hope to come up with original material for myself down the line. This is pretty much a side project/exercise with limited time.

[eRaDiCaT0r]

sumting I can finally call done....well sorta (err... no textures yet....err)

I have certainly been modding it from the original design so I can finish it.... enjoy :beer:

now onto the rest....lol

(wo0t! my first vehicle model...hehe)

[erilaz]

I love these contraptions that actually look like they can run!:thumbsup:

Looking great eRaDiCaT0r!

[eRaDiCaT0r]

quick-n-dirty on the modeling now... spending time from the bottom up ...lol

boots, knee pads, torso rough...:D

[eRaDiCaT0r]

skull in progress... planning to 'b0rg it with pipes, bolts, metal plating, and whatever I have time to add hehe... :D

[Apt Pupil]

Hey, I love the bike, it's a very nice design you have there. This should be an interesting one. Looking forward to seeing this one finished.

:beer:
