***NEW CONTEST***DUE April 19th!!!!! 3-Wheel Motion!!

[KustmAce]

So here are the rules:

Subject: A concept Three Wheeled Vehicle!

Specifics: Three wheels. No more, no less.

Rules:
-Don't rip anything off. You will be D/Qed.
-One submission per person.
-Your concept can be for an existing company or a new company you create.
-Your concept needs to be a conceptual model.
-Your concept must be accompanied a logo for both the vehicle and the company.
-Entries must be PMed to me no later than midnight your time, April 19th.
-Size requirements for entry: The largest dimension can be no larger than 600 pixels. Feel free to include a larger version if necessary, but I have to have the smaller version as well.

Mediums: All mediums accepted, with the exception of compter aided design. Only things you can do on the comp is add a watermark or a resize. Everything else MUST be hand drawn.

Judging: The judging will be setup as a poll on the day following the deadline. Voting will be based on overall quality and creativity.

In-Progress Threads: I would strongly advise against creating them and posting your work before the deadline. It will only give away what the cometition look like.

Prize:I can't put anything tangible up by myself. So unless anyone wants to put up a prize, the winner of this contest gets to decide what the subject of the next contest will be. I will contact the winner to do so.

Feel free to post any questions I did not cover.

Now, GET TO WORK!

Oh I'm so anxious to see them. A 3 wheeled car gives much more freedom of design!

[venom_design]

but it makes it hard too, because i think it's hard to make it 'one' car and not a car with parts added on it;-)

[KustmAce]

Man, I didnt think coming up with a unique Tri-Wheel design would be so hard! I spent about 3 hours doodling designs and researching older 3-wheeled cars to get a sense of design. Now Im almost donw

[nicecar]

No, problem in designing one. Does it have to be in color? I might not have time for color design, working two job's and all :} But I'll get'r done.

[mike@af]

It can just be a rough sketch right? Doesnt have to be a rendering correct?

[KustmAce]

Black and white is perfectly acceptable.

As is a rough sketch.

And Ran, thanks for the links! I went to the 3wheelers.com site to get an idea of how a 3-wheeled car works, so I recommend that site.

[knightvision]

lol

Thanks Ran. Didn't know that there are so much 3-wheelers out there.

[bonzelite]

[Ran]

That's as good as a contract. Now you HAVE to enter

EDIT: Were up to 4 entries now guys! Keep em coming! This might be the best turnout yet!

[knightvision]

Here's a bad example:





The 3-wheeler looks cool, but only for one reason: It's a small lambo countach...

For our contest, something like that should be disqualifed!

EDIT:

Mine is in now.

Good luck to everybody!

[DerekDodge]

I dont see why that would be disqualified, I think it is a perfect example.
