Hello! I'm really excited about this contest, love the idea! I will begin posting the WIP of my project. I haven't posted earlier because there were a lot of discarded designs, so i wanted to post stuff about the vehicle I'd stick with. The SDUC (Self Driving Unipersonal Carriage) is a retro-futuristic rover, heavily inspired in Syd Mead's artworks. I hope you like it!

Modelling took about 3-4 days. Here are some images of the WIP (in the images you may spot some features that were changed, like the tire design):

I'm currently working in the overall shading of the vehicle, so I'm trying some studio renders.

As you can see in the last image, I'm also working on a more "ethereal" material for the main wheel. I want to achieve some kind of "distorted" energy by using fluid simulation, refraction, fresnel-controlled transparency and spectral dispersion. That shader is nowhere near finished though, so I'll continue uploading as I (hopefully) get better results.

After many hours experimenting with different fluid simulations on the rear wheel, I ended up using three different meshes with different shading, in order to get that "dense" look in the detail layer.

I'm starting to work on the scene. I'll be using scanned assets to populate the environment.

Another test render with post-production. I've added a heat haze effect to the engine. I made it with Realflow and a material similar to the one i used on the rear wheel, but more transparent.

I've added some more details and reworked the lighting.
