Batmobile - Work in Progress

Here are my latest Work In Progress images of the Batmobile. As you can see I have been working on the background a little more now. For now however I am putting this project on pause for a few weeks to complete an environment art assignment. After that is complete I will come back to this and put the finishing touches. I think its good to take a pause and step back from this project for a now because when I come back to it I should have a good fresh perspective on it. I can't wait to get it finished though.

Batmobile - Work in Progress

Here is my latest work in progress, I have added a specular map, a normal map, added more detail to the wheels and wings along with tweaking a few areas here and there. Also I have begun to work on a background. I will include as much detail as my slow computer will allow. :)

Here are the images of my work in progress so far. I have textured almost all of it except the nose. I also want to add more detail to the Batwings and fix a few other parts here and there. It is almost complete.

Here is the texture of this Batmobile so far, I have the wings and hood to take care of still along with other odd peices.

Batmobile - The Wheels.

Here is a quick work in progress; I have been so busy with UV-ing and texturing the Batmobile that I have not had much time for posting anything. Here is a quick render of the back wheels, the color of the hubcap will be different.

Here are a few different angles on the Batmobile including a requested one with the hood open which shows all the engine detail. There are still a few more parts to model on the engine.

Here is the mesh of the body so far; I have to add a few more small details but for the most part it is complete. I have also been modeling some of the engine components. The chassis is almost ready to be UV-ed and textured.

New Project: Batmobile

Here is the latest project I have been working on. It’s the Batmobile from the graphic Novel, Batman vs. Judge Dredd: Judgement on Gotham. Simon Bisley who also illustrated other Judge Dredd comics and graphic novels created the original artwork for this Batmobile. This Batmobile predates some of the more famous modern ones including the one from Tim Burton’s Batman and the subsequent series of films from the 1990’s, and the one featured in Batman Begins and Dark Knight. Unlike the one from the latest series of films, this Batmobile is not humvee, tank-like vehicle, which is opportunistically used by Bruce Wayne as his crime-fighting vehicle of choice. It is instead a highly stylized vehicle featuring oversized bat-wings and a front profile that resembles an angry demon with yellow headlights that look like eyes and lower front vents that remind you of teeth. All of which Batman uses and are designed to intimidate and bring fear into the souls of the criminal underworld of Gotham City. And not to take away from the other incarnations of the Batmobile, including the one from the 1960’s TV series and 1940’s comic books, in my opinion this is one of the coolest and my most favorite Batmobile.
