Assignment was to create several 20's cars and then make an appropriate layout to present it with a theme, along with call outs for materials and an exploded view.
Designs I did for Velazco's Viscom 4 based on a sandcrab, sea horse/dragon, and turtle, Can't believe I made it through his class alive, got my butt handed to me a couple of times.
I did many iterations of this ship until I came up with the craziest design possible. I used a nautilus for inspiration. Really tried to push reality with this one! Rendering it was actually the fun and easy part. I did this for Viscom 3. My left brain is having a fit with the physics of this, but my right brain is having a ball with the weird and crazy shapes.
These hovercraft designs were drawn and rendered entirely freehand in Photoshop, starting as flat silhouettes and then refined to their final form.
