Here's another old vehicle sketch.
Lately this one has been on mind and it's very tempting to do an update for it.
Feedback is highly welcome as always!
So here is one random sketch I did at school. I feel like there is a lot more I could do with this, but I don't know what exactly. I just figured I'll submit it now, and maybe come back to it later. Some parts I like, some I don't. I will say this...there is a lot in this I have never done before. This would be the first time I tried incorporating components like the suspension into the pic. This is the first time I've tried drawing a vehicle in mid drift/jump. I know it's hard to tell but the back of the truck is supposed to be in the air while the front compresses at different rates. At the last minute I realized that baja trucks often don't have windshields, so this would also be the first time I've drawn a vehicle with the interior and driver visible.
The vehicle:
Smokey Mountain Automotive (my own fictional car company)
The standard Armadillo is a mid-sized truck meant to compete along the lines of the Ford F 150, the Chevy Silverado, and the Dodge Ram. This version of the Armadillo is highly modified with a custom race specific suspension system and roll cage designed by the company's competitive performance and refinement department. The engine/transmission setup is highly experimental. It is an aluminium turbocharged four cylinder diesel engine that only powers a generator to produce electricity for the four small electric motors connected to each wheel by a short drive shaft. Each wheel can function independently, but all are controlled by an advanced stability program. The end result is an all wheel drive system that can give both the best performance and best efficiency automatically.
The armadillo symbol:
Really this was a random idea that popped in my head and I had nowhere else to put it but on this paper. I like it too much to erase it. I would actually like to use this symbol in my blacksmithing to mark my pieces if I ever get good enough.
