Subject: Aug / Sept Challenge....


RimRunner ( ) posted Sun, 11 August 2002 at 5:35 PM · edited Mon, 11 November 2024 at 4:04 AM

To try and avoid the problem I had last month... where I thought the winner wasn't interested in posting a challenge... I have given July's winner more time to respond to the e-mails.
Alas... no response. :(

So while Pidjy did win July's challenge... we've already lost two weeks of August waiting for their post.

So... I will go ahead and start this one off... and because of the lost weeks, and the possible complexity, this challenge will go until September 25th. At Mid-night (Eastern time), we'll start the voting.

So... without further a due...

**
Theme: Concept Vehicles.
Constraints:
Must be original vehicles
(if you dont model, you can use a purchased and/or obtained model in a complete scene).
Must meet the ground (hover craft and low altitude flyers are ok) at least some of the time. Taking a hint from Ray Tracy in Full Tilt (http://www.menithings.com/video/FullTilt/Video_Tilt_01.html)

Can be modeled, drawn, and rendered in anything you choose.
While not a required, inclusion in a scene wouldnt hurt. ;)
**

So
what do you think the 2030 Ducati will look like?
Will cars actually fly (ala Back to the Future) in a few years and what will the roads look like?

For those of you keeping track... yup. I tried this near the beginning of July as well.
You can repost your entry from there in this thread (or in the Challenge Gallery.. with a link in the thread).

as cars are relying more and more on computers to control the engine, brakes, power distribution etc. i guess it wont be long before its more computer and less car :o) say hello to the Carmadore 64

anyone else playing ?


ijack999 ( ) posted Thu, 15 August 2002 at 7:23 AM

I'll be along shortly. This is my first try at creating a vehicle. It's nearly done but now I need to work on a setting.


KingHeroical ( ) posted Thu, 15 August 2002 at 10:54 AM

The subject matter is rather more involved than it has been in the past couple of months, as is shown by the extended period through which this particular challenge runs. I am certain that there will be sufficient entries by Sept 25. I personally am only in the infant stages of the creation of the models for my image.

We also can't forget that little week at the beginning of last month's challenge confusion... where Kris, or Mist_Hunter01 had posted an entry... which I am accepting in this bi-month challenge .... Linked above.

RimRunner ( ) posted Mon, 19 August 2002 at 9:07 AM

No trouble at all. I just like to keep things moving... but tell you what.. we'll work out something if you have an idea for a challenge. :)

My first ever challenge entry, this nasty contraption is used for the transportation of arrested perps from the scene of the crime to the slammer.

Here it is... WT Motors 6000 Cheetah. A very simple model but I like it on some unknown reason. 3DSmax , the one and only...


RimRunner ( ) posted Sat, 31 August 2002 at 11:59 PM

Well, we're at the 1/2 way point.. and I must say, some very impressive concepts here!! Let keep 'em coming... :)

Here's mine. I took the one I had before out, because I didn't consider it worthy enough against this great competition. This is one that I am slightly more attracted to ;) Many thanks to RR for making me re-enter.


draculaz ( ) posted Tue, 03 September 2002 at 11:28 PM

oh yeah, all in Bryce, if you're wondering. Metaballs and volumetric smoke :)

Hello everyone: I saw the concept vehicle challenge yesterday, so I wasn't gonna have time to design and model, I decided to post the car from which I created the Lamborghini Devilon GNX on my gallery, and here it is the original "Lamborghini Devilon", the scene is another test of raytraced materials and fake sunlight, it has 186,756 polygons and waited 3 hours 6 minutes and 16 seconds, this is the way I see Lamborghinis in about 10 or 15 years, still on the ground but really fast, hope you like it.


Gabosamu ( ) posted Sat, 21 September 2002 at 2:43 AM

file_19697.jpg

Well this one is my personal record, designed, modeled and textured in one day, hope you guys like it, this one looks a lot more like a concept vehicle than the devilon, this time I didn't wanted to wait another 3 hours to get an image with sunlight and raytraced materials, waited only 20 minutes, it has a bit more than 164,000 polygons, probably pontiac will be taking cars like this one to production in about 20 years. Is there a problem if I leave the two cars for the voting?, if so I'll be leaving this one and removing the devilon. Thanks for viewing.


Batsarse ( ) posted Sat, 21 September 2002 at 7:26 AM

How did you do those tyre treads?


Batsarse ( ) posted Sat, 21 September 2002 at 8:15 AM

file_19698.jpg

Police APC. It's got extra armour plates on the side to stop naughty people from throwing bombs in there, and the hatch is around the back. It works in tandem with the prison truck I posted earlier, but this is the one that does the arresting. Looks like I've got a thing for caterpillar tracks :o)


Gabosamu ( ) posted Sun, 22 September 2002 at 1:45 AM

Those tire threads are easy, they were made with 3d max 3.0, all you have to do is model the line thread, make a mirror of it, clone it with the spacing tool, extrude it with a black matte material, and make a render of it, if you wish you can adapt the map to fit the tire with PSP or photoshop like I did, set it as a bump on the tire material, and there you go.


RimRunner ( ) posted Wed, 25 September 2002 at 11:31 PM

Final Call for entries. This one will end on Friday, voting to follow on Saturday, Sunday and wrapping up on Monday evening. Good luck to all!! Love some of these concept vehicles. :)

Well.. here it is, finally time to vote. I can say that I've never been so torn. Almost wish that I could vote in 'classes' or by application.. but, only one vote per person.. so... I place my chip on Mist_Hunter01 (linked above). That is one car I would HAVE to own, if it were real. ;)

I could see myself in the Pontiac Axle. Thats more my style. My vote goes to gabosamu.


Baztd ( ) posted Sun, 29 September 2002 at 2:37 AM

gonna have to go with the police apc. wont have any bother parking it :o)


Batsarse ( ) posted Sun, 29 September 2002 at 5:13 AM

iJack999's Electric Studabaker gets my vote, because it's a nice, simple blend of retro and modern. It actually looks like something you'd see on the roads in the near future, and here's the clincher - it looks affordable as well!


TRLee ( ) posted Tue, 01 October 2002 at 9:45 PM

iJack999's Studebaker image gets my vote. Simple ,elegant.

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

Well... as the voting comes to a close, it seems very obvious that: ijack999 took it with his Studebaker. :) Congrats ijack... please start a new thread with Octobers challenge idea. :)
