For this assignment I decided to create a car in the style of Steampunk. I used references such as wood panelling, tractors, and the design of the Ford Model-T to create the construction of the initial sketch. I then cleaned up the sketch in Sai, using the Vector tool to get as clean a line as possible. After this step, and layed in the flats. I researched and used steampunk colour schemes, which generally consist of wood, bronze, and dingy metals. These tones I rendered using darker tones, followed by reflective lighting from the ground. This was in an effort to push the three-dimensional feel of the car. I also placed highlights upon the key areas of the car hit by the primary light source. After a simple drop shadow, the Steampunk Landrover was complete.
