Vehicle Designer and Builder For Hire

#1 Post by ShojiAmasawa » Mon Nov 03, 2014 12:09 am

Some of you might know me from my logo design thread. In general I like designing things, and I need money to fund my projects, so I thought I might open a new thread to offer my services to you.

I love designing vehicles―aircraft specifically. TV Shows like Thunderbirds inspired me to come up with semi-realistic designs grounded in actual aeronautics.

Giant robot series like Gundam and Macross never really interested me, and I know that is quite popular among this community, so I am probably taking a risk when I say that I will not design giant robot mecha. I probably could not make a very good mecha, honestly.

However, non-humanoid planes, spaceships, subs, and land vehicles are all within my capabilities.

I create my vehicles over Google Sketchup. Unfortunately, this program is not particularly good for texturing, which is something I have little experience in. I try to make up for this by making the models incredibly detailed.

How a commission would work
Private message me with brief details on your project and what you have in mind for a vehicle. Emails will then be exchanged, and I will begin work on the vehicle. After I make a design you are satisfied with, I will ask for payment. after this, I will ask for a detailed list of CGs the vehicle will appear in, with descriptions of the angle you would like to see it in. I will make high quality PNGs of the vehicle for you to place into the the game for a small additional fee.

If anyone wants to commission me for a vehicle, take these things into consideration.
1. $25 for one vehicle, to be payed after the model is complete.
2. Add $5 for variations on said vehicle, or changes made to vehicle after the initial $25. Example: transport plane ($25) + transport plane with extra engines ($5) = $30.
3. $1 for each angle.
4. No humanoid mecha.
5. Aircraft, spacecraft, watercraft, land-craft, all encouraged.

Below are some examples of my own work.
ST-98 Rynchus.png
Inspired by designs seen in Transformers and Gundam.
Thunderbird 2 Smooth.png
An actual Thunderbird. Thunderbird 2 to be exact.

An original design for a supersonic transport.

I hope you consider me! Thank you.

Based on real planes which may fly commercial flights within the next decade, this is one of my favourite designs to date!

In case anyone is interested, I am still taking commissions. At the moment, all I can do is design things for myself, unfortunately. Here is a new design, and probably one of my best. I call it the Phoenix (PX) 01, a fighter plane used by World Defender.

Hello! We are Cotton Candy Cyanide, a game development studio currently working on our first visual novel.

If you still have these commissions available, we would love to get you to design a futuristic Military Spacecraft to use as promotional materials, and for reference material in-game.

Essentially, the craft is a self-contained military vessel designed to travel for a couple hundred years (without FTL) without running out of resources. As such it'd be a quite a bit larger than the Tsundere birds (hilarious, by the way), as it would contain roughly 30 crew quarters, bridge, medic bay, engine core, dining hall, sustainability farm, and a shuttle hangar.

We'd be looking for the initial design, and about 5 different angles of the ship (and maybe some of the linework schematics) so that we could create some promotional posters similar to the ones you've done of the Tsundere Bird 3 and the Thunderbird 3.

If you are interested, please contact us at: cottoncandycyanide@gmail.com

Thanks very much! :3

Salutations! We commissioned Shoji to design a deep space military vehicle for our upcoming Visual Novel, Quantum Suicide.

His work is simply wonderful, he is an absolute delight to work with. He is not only prompt with deadlines but also will happily cater to requests with his unique flair and talent.

We can't thank him enough for his work on our project. If you are thinking of hiring him, stop thinking, and just do it. You won't regret it. :3
