Character: Rock n roll Alien

[Blair]

Really nice work, I can se a whole band on bikes cruizing down the motorway. The bike is really impressive. The shadows are a bit distracting as they're all crossing over and all very crisp, the shadow's would start to blend together or if there were that many light sources the shadows wouldn't be that dark. But awesome job.

:) Cheers, Blair, thanks for your comments... the hdri map helps bring out the chrome on the bike. You're right about the shadows... I wasn't sure about them and will try to tone them down and maybe try a render with radiosity turned on...

Looks nice, be nice to see a wire. I found a very similar stock scooter and wondered if this is where you got your idea from? It's a cool image for the aliens to come swooping into town.

:) Thanks, Witchy... I decided on a Lambretta as they were big in the UK Mod scene in the 60s... and there's a wealth of reference material on the web. Here's a wireframe (it could be more elegant, it's quite a high poly count... mainly subdivision surfaces...)

Here's one of the reference pics I used for the front view:
