Selected Sketch - This was the selected concept by the Generac Team. Featuring large wheels with thin rubbers reminiscent of sports cars. The angled orange cover was to give a predominant profile and provide additional cooling airflow to the engine.

Original 3-D Model - This is the initial 3-D model using Rhino and rendered in Hypershot (love the speed of this program)! Materials used would be a steel gas tank and sides to protect the engine. All this is supported by the bent metal structure. It also has injection molded details: fenders, grips, heavy duty switches.

Model Construction

Advertisment - This was a conceptual Advertisement. The use of black and white photography really makes the Generator pop out as the only color in the scene. The detail shots on the right are taken of the actual prototype model. The handles are ergonomically designed and are large in size for use with gloves (tied back to research). The angled hood went away but in its place are rivets securing the side panels. The race inspired gauges show: Run time left, Wattage, and Gas Level.
