Unimog

I've always wanted to do one of these. Shooting for "relatively easy to build" kit as usual, for the common man

Currently waiting to heard back from a beta builder.

Enjoy the images.

First I go into rhino3D and make the basic shapes




Maybe a tiny house just for fun? :



Then I go into a few paper prototypes. Usually 3-4 of these before I start on graphics.

Then I start on the graphics. I use Adobe Illustrator CS6.
This takes awhile as I set up my files tonally, so that I can change the model color in one click later on.




Than it's color model prototype time. Usually I only make one of these, but still make slight, non-geometric changes to the file afterwards.

Comparison of colored and earlier prototype




All done:

Very impressive. Good job.
The cab-over variation is nice, too.
