Vehicle 3D design
Art Nouveau sailboat
For this assignment we learn how to design, starting out with a 3D model and later use 2D to create the final product. We were all given different props, landscapes, vehicles and buildings with a certain theme. For this part of the assignment mine is: a sailboat. The theme is Art Nouveau for all the props I have to make except for the landscape. Blender is the program I'm using to create this model.
Moodboard/Styleboard
I've searched for different kind of sailboats from different centuries and looked at the different aspects, such as the shape of the hull and sail(s) and picked out some parts I like.
Because art nouveau most of the time contains nature themed things such as plants and animals and because I had to create a sailboat concept I really wanted to stick to the ocean theme by using sea creatures. As you can see below I've chosen fish, shells, an octopus but also a swan because they also sort of have the shape that would fit as the shape of a boat.
Fast sketching
Personally I find it a bit difficult to immediately form shapes in 3D without knowing where I'm heading to, so I've made some sketches in 2D first. Three sailboats with the sea creatures I've chosen in my styleboard above.
Blockouts
Progress
After making the blockouts, I've chosen the sailboat with the octopus (blockout in the middle in the photo above) as the concept I will continue working on.
Scale
Final Renders
Sketchfab model
This 3D model will eventually be turned into a final 2D art concept
Coming soon.
