Need some suggestion for a mesh vehicle's appearance.

Hello guys, so I just released the beta version of this vehicle, and currently trying to make it look better :matte-motes-big-grin: what do you guys think about what I can add / change to make it look more appealing?

hi, nice start to the plane!,, wings, landing gear, propellers or jets,

maybe use subsurf modifier level 1 ,, mirror modifier azis X,

[lucagrabacr]

lol thanks, and no it's not a plane it's somekind of a hoverbike.

And here's the current WIP picture I also added some grills on the front side, but it's not in the screenshot.

Where's the cockpit where the pilot sits?

When texturing you might want to make also a specular map so that the vehicle has some cool dynamic specular shine on it.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion :matte-motes-big-grin: it's an open-cockpit hoverbike, and here's the pilot seat.

Hi

My advice (from someone who has never made a hover bike before) would be to decide on a method of propulsion and build around that. Keep the lines simple but add some basic details to make it more interesting to look at . Also don't let the texture you are using overpower the mesh

I tried modeling one and it looks more like a jet bike ..........but  maybe it gives you some ideas :

 

and please allow yourself to use more vertices . 58 verts is EXTREME low poly modeling
