Something from nothing...

2 or 3 wheels...

Just put together last night's trike with a few sketches from long back that I happened to find in my old hard disk...

Singing off 2012 with them trikes...

Something from nothing - 2

These are a series of self devised quick 2 hour exercises...
(something I came up with to clear my mind and start without a brief)

Step 1 : Catch someone in the studio...lol...

Step 2 : Ask them to make random lines on paper

Step 3 : Stare at the paper... Was quick on this one

Step 4 : Rotate the page... try looking at it from different perspectives

Step 5 : Pick key lines and start giving it form

Step 6 : Once you have a fair enough idea, do some quick photoshop... and VOILA !!

Step 1 : Catch someone in the studio...lol...

Step 2 : Ask them to make random lines on paper

Step 3 : Stare at the paper... In this case, it turned into quite a long process

Step 4 : Rotate the page... try looking at it from different perspectives

Step 5 : Pick key lines and start giving it form

Step 6 : Once you have a fair enough idea, do some quick photoshop... and VOILA !!

Winner - Michelin Design Challenge 2012

This was a project done at the National Institute of Design, in 2010.
Completely hand made model. Vacuum formed polystyrene, heat bent acrylic, PU Foam detailing, to name a few steps along the way.

This project helped me win the All India Automobile Design Challenge in 2011 and the Michelin Challenge Design in 2012 and was exhibited at the Detroit Auto Show 2012.

Coming soon...

The stance

KTM - rear view

The rear suspension works on magnetic levitation. Of course, the roads needs to be embedded with electromagnets to make this possible. But, 30 years on, we may have developed sustainable energy and this could become reality...

Wear your seatbelt... literally...

Interior refinement...

Been working on the interiors... something that goes with the theme of the interactive car... And of course, bucket seats dont make the cut unfortunately :P
Here is something that seems to be leading towards the final concept. Been thinking of safety aspects as well here.

Engine Testbed

This is the hypercar Engine Testbed... more on this soon...

Rendering Exercise

This was more of a photoshop rendering exercise, over a failed watercolor painting... 

Initial sketches

This was one of the initial sketches that led to the hypercar development...
