Hi!
Great contest theme. I hope I will finish my work. I need to learn a lot in the university and have to work, so time is not enough I think, but I’d like to finish it as fast as possible.
My concept is to creat a car that is designed for speed. Very flat, and wide, some kind of future F1 car without wheels 
My animation will be a night scene. Insipired by the night race of Singapore. My plan is to create a 1, or 1,5 minutes long animation.
here is a very very fast 3d sketch of the car
some updates, creating the final model. More detials will come to the gears also
hope you like
Hi Csicso3d,
you got a nice form there and that thing looks very fast.
Would be cool if the racer would become flapwings on its nose
because the back looks a bit to mighty compared to the nose 
are you going to put more than one of them in the animation?

hi! thanks for the reply. Well, I tried different noses, but this one was the best for me.
Noooo This one will be more than enough to animate and render I hope I will be able to finish it, cause I can’t work with it more than 1-3 hours/day
Here is a little update. Geras are done, no extra details, and the car is alos not a full detailed thing, focus will be on the animation and render.
Hi All!
At last I can show you some anims. Made the first 3 spot. It is coming out from the hangar. Not so much, but this will be the final look. Hope you like it.
Here is the link (8 mb): http://3d.csicso.com/wip_01.mov Turn on your speakers
any C&C’s already?
Hmm, Ok, C&C…
The music is great, you should keep that one…
The animation is to dark overall.
At the first scene, if the car´s lights go on, a few frames later the Hangarlights should fade in over the car from the front to the rear end.
That would bring a nice show effect into your animation…
Also you could place some Beamer lights around the car, that flash really bright if the car lifts up in the second scene.
The last scene , the top view, looks great with all the reflections, but the turn to the right looks very uncool!
You should rework the last scene.
The car should fly straight and the cam follows a little.
then you fade to black.
And it would be really cool if you cut the scenes more to the music, like
a presentation.

I agree with rasher. The right turn pulled me out from the animation. Maybe a bit more anticipation ???
Also the beginning is a little dark. You have very cool car. Its sad to lose his figure into dark.
Also i belive that if you add some cool sound effects it would give so much more to this animation.
Good luck.
Hi thanks for the replies!
Yes, I have to redo the cornering, but it was only a “2-click” animation So just a test.
Well, I think the beginning of this whole animation will be as dark as now, becouse it is just the intro, and when it got the green light, than all lights will turn on and the music will also be much faster
I hope I can show you some more updates today (but only viewport previews)
ok, I did the viewport previews, and put them together. Only some new scene need to create. only 10-15 second remaining from the music.
The turning on the second scene still don’t fixed. Please tell me some hints how the others could be better. I think they will look much better with motion blur and reflections
so, here is it: http://3d.csicso.com/wip_02.mov
okhay, all the animations done. Now I just need to render the viewport preview scenes. Hope you like it. Unfortunatly I haven’t got more time to create a longer/better animation.
Hope you like it final anim will come soon (I think it will be a bit brighter
Damn, thats a emotional animation, GREAT!
I really like that one.
Totally Wipe Out feeling rushes over me…
Its fits almost pefekt to the music.
Only thing i can say is the animation itself is a little bumby…
But besides that, GREAT…
