Sometimes I like to throw myself a little challenge just to keep my spider senses tingling - that is, if Peter Parker was a designer.
For this small design challenge, I wanted to try my hand at 3D COAT (Finally!!!). I've sort of dabbled before, but I tried to come up with something I know I'd have fun with - going back to the oldschool and creating my own take on a RACER from the 1995 game, WIPEOUT.
Not only was WIPEOUT one of the sickest racing games ever created - the whole design package by THE DESIGNERS REPUBLIC was absolutely mind-blowing and a heavy duty influence on me as a young gun just getting into graphic design.
I took a couple days between client projects to rock out a few "styleframes" with the ship burnin some sick-ass rocket fuel... Sorry 'environment.' I'll make up for it by not printing any of this ; )
WIP images illustrate process, textures, 3D backgrounds and flat PNG renders before Photoshop insanity.
Start your engines - Hope you enjoy!
