My daughter's preschool is doing a fundraiser called Touch a Truck. They gather a bunch of vehicles like dump trucks and police cars along with their operators for kids to check out. They sell shirts, so they needed a design. I offered to make a vehicle mascot for the shirts.
The challenge with designing a car character is trying to avoid iconic car designs like:
Putting eyes in the windshield instead of the headlights was genius.
I decided on a dumptruck and made a sketch.
I modeled it up. The windshield wipers were too distracting so I swapped them for rear-view mirrors. Render in Keyshot.
