Speeder Bike

wester

I thought i'd start up a new project based off of an existing concept. I wanted the concept to be loose to see how i could adapt to it and hone my modeling skills to better fit the concept.

I picked a concept from cghub.com by Numioh.

I thought it was a cool looking speeder bike design. Smalll, simple and orange!

Here's my progress so far. The highpoly is finished and now im moving onto the lowpoly. I should have it done soon as this is my spring break week coming up.



And color just for funzies



Hope you guys digz. I'm really trying to become alot better at my hard surface, im not happy with where its at. But plenty of time for practice when i graduate!

just from the chalk renders i can see you have a lot of pinching in places which leaves me to believe that your topology isn't quite as optimal as it could be.

I think if you upload some wireframes people would be able to critique the work better.

Interesting concept though.

Kinda looks like a flying ride-on lawn mower. You know, not that there's anything wrong with that.

nice. you built that pretty quickly

This looks like a pretty solid high poly to me! At immediate first glance I didn't think it was done and that it was missing some sort of tires or propulsion device around the front. But upon looking more and checking out the concept I've realized otherwise, haha. Be sure to give the textured low poly version some real character to it. Some intelligent wear and tear, maybe a couple different diffuse iterations with color. Guess that's all I can say for now, cool asset for sure!

It's been awhile. Unfortunately my laptop had broken there for awhile, so i couldnt get any work done on this guy.

Gladly i got it fixed and as of recently have been working on it again. The bake is done and now im moving onto the textures.

It's pretty expensive i think, it's about 9k tris. It isnt terrible for being a "hero vehicle".
