Monobike

#1

Hi. I modeled a monobike some weeks ago as part of my Masters project at Bournemouth University. The course finished but i decided to spend some time to improve it and compose it on top of a photo.
Meanwhile i thought it would be nice idea to post it.

The model started in SolidWorks (engineering application) and then i added some details inside rhino. The bike was done with NURBS in 6 days. The real challenge was getting the nurbs into XSI. At the end i just convert it into a mesh obj. Details like bolds and nuts and rendering was done in XSI 7 using mentalray.

My main concern was to model a monobike that would use realistic or almost realistic parts and have something from WWII military bikes.

Any critique or thoughts is welcome.

Really cool! I love your design. Definitely has some reminiscent WWII in there as well as some cool futuristic elements. Nice job! Hope you got an A! :smiley:

Cool model! I really like the design. The only problem I have is that it reminds me of the transportation device that Mr. Garrison invented on South Park. (that thing was pretty horrible)
