Vision Recumbent r-40 bike "Maybe Mature warning"


Recommended Posts

I started a new project of modeling my favorite bicycle. I could not stop, and I am half way there.

I just wanted a basic bike for myself, and then make a Black Op version of my recumbent bike for the zombie /end of the world survival road warrior bike.

I manage to get the basic bike patch count to 12,000 and I try to not get too detailed on it. I have not rig it yet! Took me a day and a half to get this far.

One of the thing I learn from this is to model the pieces in a separate model window, and then once you got it, copy and paste to the main model window. I test the bike with another character and it fits really well with real world scale character. She is 5'1" feet tall and the bike was built for 5'1" to 6'4" with telescoping boom on the front pedal.

Nice! I dig the crosseye, it's actually good for my eyes to do that. Love the girl, great Marilyn 'do'... wonder if that is A:M Hair or modelled- can't tell, which is good. THE BIKE- wow- that is a looong chain on those things, why don't they make the front wheel big and have the drive go there with a shorter chain and have the smaller rear wheel steer. Just wondering... I've gotten stuff caught in my chain before... and it needs some tiretread... other than THAT- LOVE IT! Especially the girls eyes, expression, and the way her bending thigh bends, always a trouble area for me! Great stuff Russ!

The big gears have 52 teeth. The chain is just a simple set of 2 flat mesh

 

I redid the hip and leg mesh many time, and keep working the smartskin so that when she bend her legs, it didn't look like she was packing a set of male testicle. The hair was imported from Poser 3D export and it came with the texture map still intact. Great import plugin programming. I was shooting for the platinum blonde color. The female is model off a pinup star that is often compared to Marilyn Monroe.

 

adding tire tread would rock...........on a road thin wheel there is no tread, but just on the side only. could add a little yellow tire pressure decal message. could also add a company logo on the bike.
