Heavy Vehicle Final Design & Reference Images

Outlines for the final Design for the Heavy Vehicle.

UPDATE: Full Coloured Design & Colour Theory Applied

For the final design I amalgamated earlier concepts and referenced how pickup trucks, particularly from the 1970's decay and their base Chassis.

Early Concept of Heavy Metal Race

An early concepts of heavy metal vehicles in action. 

Arena Concept

A bunch of sketches featuring oval-shaped arena with heavy metal atmosphere, surrounded by mountains in a desert plain.

Concepts

this is just one of the concepts for the vehicles. as you can see it has a rusted look aswell as armored so it has the feel that its been through quite a few battles but its only had its paint scaved.

This is another vehicle which would be a heavy vehicle to fight the one above.

Colour Theory

As we chose Mad Max as a reference for the feel of our project, we looked at the colour theory behind it.

We used "Movies in Color" and Adobe's Kuler.

As no Mad Max films were present we looked at films with similar looks to it.

 Dune

 Wall-E

Alien Isolation

After looking at these movies and images of promotional items for Mad Max: Fury Road, we used Adobe Kuler to generate a Colour scheme for our project.

Reference images

these are just a few reference images to give us a feel and a look we are trying to achieve with our designs.

Vehicle Concepts

For these concepts I researched typical symbols of the Heavy Metal music genre and watched Mad Max: Fury Road to try and match the intended tone.

Bike Concept:

Muscle Car Concept:

Pick-Up Truck Concept:

Feedback is welcome.

I will Post research at a later point.

Final Targets:

Mad Max-like Atmosphere

Vehicle X2

Derby Arena

In Engine

Targets and etc

This is the final targets for what we aim to complete, and the tasks that need to be done,
For communications we will talk via Facebook and Skype and will upload every meeting to the blog
For the risk assessment we will have a plan where if one of us is not in for whatever reason the work will go to the next person in the triangle, we will create a gantt chart to illustrate a brief plan and will give extra time to areas where people lack strength in.
