Polestar Spinner

I decided to take part in this year's Polestar Design Contest, if only to have a good prompt to make something fun. Not taking it too seriously I decided to mix it up with two of my favourite things, the Polestar Precept and the Blade Runner Spinner.

Originally I did want to add wheels but I could not find an aesthetically pleasing way of introducing them...so instead...hover mode!

One of the goals is to make a cutaway illustration/animation, so rather than just build a vehicle as usual, this was from the ground up, powertrain, wiring, cooling systems, engines, interior and exterior. This will mean everything fits together nicely in the end. A lot of the powertrain and FLIR were created from various kitbash sets I own or have made, the rest is by me on this project.
The finished model will make its way to Unreal Engine where I hope to create a series of animations.

Everything was built in Blender and rendered in Cycles 3.2.
