NVart 5 Comp Entry

Hey all,

Just thought I'd share what I'm working on with you guys.
I've entered the latest NVidia comp that CGSociety are hosting, not so much for the goal of winning, just because as soon as I saw the brief I got an idea.

The idea is to create a form of transport in the style of Syd Mead, for more info see

Accelerate Comp

My entry is basically a three wheeled bike, that when it hits extreme speeds converts to a single wheel.

I was kind of going for a cross between Syd's older work, mixed with his newer, with a dash of the work he did on Gundam, not sure if I've pulled it off but it's not quite finished yet so we'll see.

Here's an AO of it so far, in both modes, and here's a link to the animation of the bike transforming, didn't need to do it as the comp is for a single image only, but just wanted to.
