Motorcycle?

[Dan Melton]

Can we use one of these?  It will probably need a rider though…

[Martin Bergwerf]

That looks so good!

You nailed it Dan. Cubicity is going to be a lively place.

You read my mind. I dreamed up a motorcycle last night. Image a fun Cubert with a helmet on riding that thing

Stanley, Stanley Cubic…
He rides a motorcycle now!

Okay,  last one…  I was thinking of modeling a hospital and having this guy land on a helipad on top of the building.  MEDIVAC!

Maybe add a driver to spin the blades…  🙂

Love your motorcycle and cab.

Uh, oh, we both have medivacs!  Your looks pretty cool!

[Kent Trammell]

Heh I was just talking to @wardred about his helicopter in the cubicity discord channel. Both your motorcycle and helicopter look really good! I’ll give the same feedback to you that I gave to wardred: The vehicles in cubicity are a great time to play with proportions.

Right now your motorcycle and helicopter feel a bit like low-poly versions of their real-world counterparts. This is fine but I really like the aesthetic that comes with shrinking wheels (if the vehicle has wheels) and making the cab abnormally tall. As you’ve done with the cab in the background.

Maybe you could try shrinking the motorcycle wheels to see how that feels. Though this approach may not apply well to the motorcyle since it’s so small. For the copter I’d try shrinking the propeller to be small; like silly small. Sane with the legs and maybe tail.

Thanks Kent, I understand.   I reworked the motorcycle–I’ll see what I can do with the chopper.

Those are cute too.

I hope you saved your original.

Even if they don’t make it into the group asset library, there’s no reason it can’t be in your personal one.

Of the two above I like the first one.  The small wheels are great, and I like the sleek gas tank.

[Dan Melton]

Thanks @wardred!  My goal with modeling is to have fun.  Not sure I’m going to contribute to the asset library—too many rules :).

[Omar Domenech]

Maybe try it the other way around and make the tires big and the body small. 

[Kent Trammell]

@danmelt YES! This is exactly what I was talking about. It reminds me of the motorcycle from dumb and dumber:

I’m a big fan! 👏

[Dan Melton]

Haha!  Love that movie 🙂
