#181

Thanks!!! i think were only about 10% of the way to a complete idea

feel free!! try This One if you want to do a car. or, if you want to do a different vehicle / whatever just say the word!!! (there are ships, creatures, buildings, power armour etc… to be designed* / modelled yet) (*as in further concept art…ive done initial sketches of a lot of stuff)

i wish there was a website!! haha… a website is ‘on the agenda’ so to speak…
more help with this (bloody huge) project is allways needed and appreciated, so please, feel free to get stuck in!!

Hiya all,

Here is the revised version of the BIG-RIG…:slight_smile:

cheers Mark


#183

Here are the Autho’s of the E5 Hydrocharge 2200, finished them today at work. My new computer hasn’t come back, i wont get it til next Tuesday :sad:

So Zag and Blitzze hope these are up to standard…

Mark


#184

beautiful concept art you’ve done on the rig:thumbsup:


#185

HOLY S**T !!! NOW THATS A BIG-RIG!!!
LOVE this one mark :thumbsup::bounce::scream:

on rig 3a. what are those bits that stick out on the rig?

ooh… small point… 1 more trailer please :thumbsup:


#186

ooh…quick thought…

for the rig, can you place some sort of sensor thingie on the front so the ai navigation system can drive the rig? (nothing too large…maybe a small port w/ transparent covering and a few short aerials)


#187

OMG Mark :applause:

Great concept on the BIG-RIG!!!:bounce:

I would love to have a go on this one… hehehehe


#188

Hiya Dene,

Glad u like it, I am love the design to…lol

Now for the bits when its in Hover mode are part of the Mag-Lev system, because of it high centre of gravitiy and the length. These are heavy duty Mag-lev generators to prevent the vehicle tipping and to give the rig fast forward motion. Also u might notice circular stabilizers placed around the vehicle…
As for the extra trailer i ran out of room on the paper…hehe.


#189

softdistortion and Zag: Thanx dudes:beer:


#190

im still confused as to what those ‘ears’ are on the rig…that, and they’d severly slow the rig down.


#191

I love it ‘ears’ LOL

Oh and as for navigation the thing on the roof of 3a is what that was for.

Remember its a only a concept and can be change …lol :slight_smile:

I would hate to have to find a park for this rig hehe


#192

well, as much as i hate to say it Mark, the ‘Ears’ are the only thing im not 100% happy with on the rig.

parking this thing? ouch…not a chance!!! haha


#193

Bugger i designed a concept dud lol
Ok OK the ears are history…hhhmmm what ears dont know nothing about ears…hehe

So do you want anything else done on the rig? or are we onto a spaceship now?? :thumbsup:


#194

ok…hmmm…

i think, for now Mark, ill keep you on the human tech…seeing as your in the ‘groove’ of it…
ok…

a ship, i think (though if you want to try something else, just say the word)

ok…been thinking about the concept process…heres my idea…

First Concept: as close as possible to my sketch, but with correct dimensions (like you did with the last car)
(and this only applys if i have provided a sketch)
Second Concept: your design interpritation
Third+ Concept: Refinement

this cool with you?


#195

Cool Human Tech is cool! If you get another concept designer on the team doing alien tech, It would give the project a good contrast/ different style. But if you dont I will adapt and change to suit…grin
Good idea with design protocols, might as well get a system in place now.
I am off to bed have my kids overnite and they will be up early. Try and get the first draft done as soon as i can.

Take care all


#196

Anyone interested?
and yeh…i was thinking about having different concept artists working on different species…but still…good plan!

thats what i like to hear!!!

:thumbsup: thanx


#197

i thought the ears were extendable breaking generators, given the size of those trailers, i’d say that you would be looking at something like 200,000 lbs fully laden.that’s a mighty beast to handle in an emergency…

my gripe, you made the driver too skinny…


#198

with the power output of this beast i dont think acceleration / braking is a problem haha! (it has a micro fusion reactor on board) the field output capacity of the on-board mag-lev system is more than capable of handling such a vehicle.

haha! :scream:…but seriously…this isnt a problem in my future.


#199

Cheers for those blueprints, they line up pretty well. Have you got any perspective drawings of the back or the interior? BTW I’ve got that 3/4 view (is that what it’s called?) on the page before.

Anyways starting on the model now, I’ll post some WIPs later.


#200

I knew that you would like to start on this one blitzze, so i will wait for the views on the BIG-RIG that Mark is already taking care off.

3/4 view = Perspective, isometric view?!? :smiley:

Cheers
