Vehicle lights are eyes. People perceive vehicles as living creatures, they subconsciously attribute them behavioral properties and communicate with them as if they were human. This is why vehicle lights are one of the most important design element of the vehicle.
Motorcycle front lights designs and concepts
Lights inspiration
I am searching for inspiration on motorcycle lights for my project of BMW 1150 RT.
First here are some production designs, aftermarket mods and DIYs I find interesting design-wise.
Shy crawler motorcycle concept
My first venture in 3D modelling. Software used: Google Sketchup. The motorcycle base was downloaded from Google’s base of models, the fairing, lights and windshield my work. The whole thing from zero knowledge about 3D design to this concept took me about 6 hours.
I am actually really satisfied with the result I didn’t dare to dream I would be able to draw anything in 3D as fast.
I’ll draw some other concepts I have done by hand here and then see what becomes of all this.
By the way there is some of online resources for 3D graphics, but none really specialized in motorcycles. Do you know any?
Here is what I know so far:
- Biggest (and clunckiest :S) website of online digital arts portfoliosCGSociety
- The obvious renown Deviant Art is still so rich on digital content Deviant Art
- Vast database of 3D models: 3dexport.com
Drawing motorcycles
Please allow me to dream.
