3DS Max

Muni project

I made this train for Damiens Design Decadence class (Aka. Design class). I had never been on the muni rail before and he took the whole class for a field trip on the train. I remember the feeling of an old rollercoaster, and looking at the car behind us bounce around. So I gave it the look of a newer rollercoaster with fat rollbars and a sort of an egg shape because Damien had mentioned concern about earthquakes. The guy walking and falling is a motion capture file that my 3ds max teacher gave us, so to practice using it I put that in there, the driver is hand animated. I'm not a big fan of hand animating in 3ds max's bipid system(compared to a rig that I have built myself). But it does rock for motion capture.
