This year is the year I am gonna give the 3D Car challenge a try. Called the ‘One Car Challenge‘ we will be provided with a car and will have to make a render with that car in it. Although we can change almost everything except the license plate!
I started with some ‘rough’ sketches to find a concept I liked.

I decided concept 2 had the most story. The story would be about a dad escaping a destroyed and overflooded city with his kid on top of the roof of the car. He filled the car with balloons so it can float and act as a raft or boat to bring them to a safer place. I found inspiration in the awesome artwork for the game ‘Last of Us’.
Next I tested some composition elements. To see where light and dark areas in the render should be to create mood.


I picked the one that best resembled the mood I was going for and started modelling and replacing the blocks with models.
After some tweaks I made this final render.
