Final In-Class Assignment (Due tonight @10pm)



"Mad Max"



 
The Plot:
In the stark desert wasteland populated by broken humanity driven with survival and the unending ravage for gasoline, a loner named Max finds himself unwantedly caught in the middle of a chase while aiding the heroine Furiosa, and her female companions, she struggles to return to her homeland and escape the clutches of a ruthless desert gang leader, Immortan Joe. With the harsh desert sands in front of them and marauders behind, only the maddest will prevail the storm.

Your Assignment:
Sketch-up and render one vehicle in 2 views that would feel at home in a 2026 version of this cult classic movie.    
NOTE* ( don't sweat it if you haven't seen the movie. You really only need to see the above trailer or google search "mad max movie cars" to get all the inspiration you need for this challenge) 

You can design Max’s car or one of the above-mentioned gang’s vehicles. (In other words; you are drawing post-apocalyptic cars. See below images for inspiration)

Checklist:
1 front ¾ Sketch
1 Rear ¾ Sketch
2 (based on the above sketches) high-quality renderings using any/all of the techniques that we have gone through so far this semester. We learned about mud/dirt/texturing.... which along with the rest of the methods we covered should definitely come into play here.

·         Both sketches should be a high level of finish, and the rendering should display your ability to use the techniques and tools you have to communicate the forms and details.

·         Things like perspective (which should NOT be an issue), sketch quality, and amount of detail will be factors of your grade, as well as the quality of the finished rendering.
·         You only have the length of the class period to take this from idea to finished product so BUDGET YOUR TIME! (Both sketches and final renderings need to be uploaded by the end of the class session). Failure to get it uploaded is paramount to failing the assignment, so again… BUDGET YOUR TIME!
