Obligatory Hoverbike

Still adjusting mass and proportions.

Still proportioning.

Interesting, what kind of 'landing gear' are you going to use, seems to cry out for outrigger skids a 'la helicopter.

Thanks.
Pads on the lifting pods.
-
More blocking.

Underview.

An existant model or pure imaginative ?

Original by me.
But remember, this is just the block out. A lot more detail and shaping is still left to be done.
-
I'm happy with the overall mass and scale, There are some other things not shown that will change the overall style, but I'm moving ahead with the details.

-
Reworked instrument cluster. Roughing in the seat.

-
2 other angles.


-
Reworked the instrument cluster and seat. Added rider pedal brackets.


-
Great start.
Two things I believe could be better:- The gauges should be a bit more vertical. The actual position will force the rider to take a longer time to read them. Ideally they will be closer to the eyesight driving position.
- The footrests should be more horizontal, otherwise it will be nearly impossible to climb on and maintain the feet onto them.
Going quite nice otherwise !
And perhaps a bigger "engine" in the back ? That would be the one holding more mass whilst the front ones are used to support some of the mass and steer.But hey, it's your imagination, go wild, I like it !
-
Defo miving on mate, sleek.
-
Thanks guys.
This is still a long way from finished.
-
Still roughing in the details and playing around with the tail.



-
Working on tightening up and unifying the tail.


-
Ah, that's better.


-
Updates. Added landing skids and detailed grav pods, front scoops and minor tweak to rear end.


-
Almost 2 hours of detailing lost because autobak and autosave didn't work right after SU crashed.
