    Here's another WIP for the hover bike.



    Actually, I'm still working on it. Not as a kart, because I don't think it lends itself very well to being crunched down into a go kart. But here's the non-contest related WIP of the carriage I'm working on :D

    I like your hoverbike, but I am glad you continue to develop your steampunk carriage. It is beautiful and the lighting is great too.

    I have a question. Does the final sketchfab have to be 20,000 vertex or only the final model have to be 20,000 vertex? So, for example, if the kart model is 19,000 vertex, would I have to keep to the polycount for additional props, such as a road or road sign, or will those not be counted?

    My first try at a submarine cart looked like ass. some cool features, but all in all too bulky.




    with some refining of my concepts, I'm pretty happy with the WIP. It's going to a an amphibious submarine cart.

    Here is my concept. Stuff you might find in your garden shed... ;-)
    I rember making a cart out of a bunch of crap when I was a lad. It didn't have a rocket booster or a rat powered hybrid drive though.

    Hmm... having issues with the one drive link. I will try something else...

    @cok3 Those are some lovely idea sketches. I'd take any of them ;) Your model start looks promising! That's going to be fun to watch.

    @lorenzodom Nice finish mate! I think you really did a great job! Congrats on being first ;)

    @essimoon2 Cool idea and shape. Great start... looking forward to more!

    @koffeinvampir Thanks for joining in! That's an interesting idea and shape as well! You guys surely have had some great ideas for this contest!

    karts.jpg Hey guys, it's a bit late, but I came across this competition last week and decided I had to join in! Been doing some sketches and blockouts for ideas over the weekend, and have narrowed it to three options from which to pick one to work out. Not sure which it will be. Saw some great stuff here in this thread already, so I'll have to carefully consider what my best shot would be ;)

    Finally finished the model. Comes in at just over 17k verts. Here is the WIP render. Time to start texturing! (my favorite part)

    Today I hopefully find the time to continue my kart, it's been a while and the deadline is coming closer.. :)


    @lorenzodom: the textures/materials totally support that steampunk feel, looks awesome!

    @everyone else: some great and funny ideas, I'm excited about all the finished models!

    WIP pictures for the kart I started working on last week.
    It's a concept which have been floating in my head for quite some time. I imagined it as a vehicle for a potentiel reboot of Diddy Kong Racing set in Retro Studios' Donkey Kong universe. The kart is made to be piloted by the mices (one driver, two runners in the back wheel) from the second world of Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze (which is inspired by swiss mountains). I merged level design elements from the game to build the concept: horns for special weapon (not exhaust pipes), cheese wheels, and something similar to those kind of wooden beer mug for the core of the vehicle.

    High poly (high frequency details will come with the texturing):


    And the finished retopo:


    Will try to have the normal baking tonight... if my computer doesn't crash again in the process...

    Here is my concept. It's a little ropey and rough around the edges but I will refine it as I model it.

    Does anyone here remember playing Mortal Kombat Karts from Mortal Kombat Armageddon?
    Not one of the finest games in the series but it was fun doing special moves on the race track.

    @Cartoomotion That is looking fantastic right there! I assume this is high poly? Got a wireframe shot of it?

    Hi Thomas , glad you like it .
    i created this model as a low poly from the start inside 3ds max but i applied a turbo smooth modifier to it for the presentation , the wheels still need to be optimized and few things need to be fixed :)
    regards.

    So I'm not going to have it ready in time. I'm in the process of learning substance designer. But here is the high poly version and also a fun timelapse :

    Great progress everyone. So many cool ideas :)
    I finished the first round of normal map baking and UV mapping. Still not perfect but I will tweak it a bit on the way. Now I can finally start texturing.

    Good job on finishing. Just as an FYI if you look at it from the back. Look at the silver parts on the sides. One is smooth shaded and the other one on the other side is flat shaded.
