WWII Re-design Project
Tank development 1
These are the initial concepts for my WWII german tank re-design concept. I have focused more on the shape and form of the tank in order to keep most of the world war two aesthetic. However I have added and refined some of the shapes to add a more modern/futuristic look.
I feel that some of the designs need to be refined more, such as the front and rear views. As although I like the external exhaust detail, and the front hull mounted machine gun, there needs to be some more development to make those features, along with the overall shape, more unique, modern and futuristic.
In order to develop the tank I looked at various images of Tiger and King Tiger tanks from WWII. I found these tanks to be a good starting point in order to develop a concept of a german tank, because they had the most striking and recognisable features, that I could use to adapt into my own forms.
I first started by choosing various details and forms from these images, then making these sketches, in order to highlight those forms that appealed to me the most. This also made it easier to generate ideas that will be more realistic and functional.
