Hi again guys... time for a little update
First i would like to share some screenshots of the
3pod vehicle for G-racer* for the people that couldn't open the OSA (now removed)
The basic idea about G-racer is to have good variety in its car selection. Quality over quantity.
The 3 wheeler has no gas powered engine, but a small zero-point core, that is charged by the track surface as with all the cars in the game, thats why you see the different colored energy streaks.
The front wheels charge the field, and the rear wheel releases the energy (imagine a cable car gliding the energy field, very similar to Billy Meier's Pleiadean UFOs propulsion system)... anyway, there is a feeling of gliding when you're in the car, yet it sticks to the ground.
check it out in realtime 3D Rad hereI'm very excited to show you guys this next design... When i was 13 i got my first car, a
Trabant and i kept it till i was 25.
Although it was a small and very simple car, the Trabant became a symbol of my adolescence and a landmark in every major event in our teens like the first mindless drunken parties, sex, nights in the Police station, etc.
this is how it looks
For some time i wanted to remake the design the way
I want, i wanted a design that contains and the feelings and emotions that it brought me, yet make it modern, small, clean, a little aggressive and very fast looking... then i saw this:
someone else took a shot at redesigning it... while its a good concept, it doenst have what i need... the emotion!
So i decided to go even more over the top and designed a rear mid-engine, front wheel drive Trabi Concept (in the game it wont be called Trabi of course) with emphasis on the power... again the power source is the same as the
3pod, but the Trabi has a double capacitor that builds almost dangerous levels of torque to the front wheels.
It might not win the best concept car design contest, but im very happy with how it turned out... i think it has personality
The model is roughly around 4 - 5 000 polys, its not UV mapped yet and the wheels are just placeholders... this preliminary model is made of clay, just like real car designers do
check it out in realtime 3D Rad hereThanks for looking, i hope you like them!!
* - all names are preliminary
I'm designing my own cars and tracks too, with some futuristic off-road style but I don't want to publish some screenshots until they are almost finished.
