Vehicle Design

For this assignment we've been tasked with designing and drawing a vehicle with it's driver. My idea follows with the theme created by the Heroes and Villains assignment. It will serve as the limo of the main antagonist, Winston Kingston IV.

It's front grill is based of cars from the 1930's while windows are triangular and the rest of the car is based off of modern to futuristic design. The limo also has expandable wings and jet engines which take in air from various slots on the sides of the body and through the grill.

Details of what's inside will be revealed later, along with who will be lucke enough to drive it. Did I also mention that it has armour?

Bump mapped Barrel

This week we looked at bump maps (normal maps). We looked at using nDo for photoshop to create normal maps from images. Here are the normal maps of my barrel:

 

This is the normal map made of the barrel, the long way.

 

Here is a scratched metal normal map created with nDo in photoshop.

 

The grey barrel is the low polly model using the above normal maps, I'm going to practice creating normal maps from high poly models a bit more.
