Old dirty motorbike

jp3d · Feb 2013

I started working on an old dirty motorcycle. Its a crossover between 1950's harleys, triumphs, nortons etc! I pick elements from references I could gather.

I will go with a highpoly version, then bake on a videogame rez. I can predict an epic UV clusterfuck coming

Up until now i'm about done with the frame,
So I'll upload progress daily,

:poly121:

Cheers!

Progress on the base of the motor, made almost all with booleans,

Everything is looking clean so far, but I'd really try and block out the whole bike first, even if this is an imaginary bike you really need to make sure all of your shapes work and line up with your other pieces.

Good luck!

thanks! sure the most important start-blocking parts were the 2 wheels and the headlight (with the fork too), which are alot of the bike's attitude, For the motor i really needed a special concentration effort apart from the rest. Alot of stuff can still move, and take shape, seat, gaz tank, handles, exhausts, lights.

looks great so far...nice attention to details.
but yeah show us some blockout ,really intrigued on how the model looks. or are you concepting it as you go? :thumbup:

Ive been following 70's Harley blueprints for all the motor parts, for the style i only had that general shape in mind, i aimed at the 50's look.

Good that you made a concept of how you are going to work! It shows how much work is needed. Overall I love how its looking! looking forward to the results

really loving your progress.
Would you mind share your render setup you used in the very first screen?

jp3d · Feb 2013

thanks alot!! for the render i used "Keyshot", its a very fast to use little standalone renderer, very worth the try :poly121:
