Family Truckster

Post by oftcrash »

After goofing around with the PixelTool for a while, I finally decided to make my very first functioning road vehicle. Rather than something practical, I went with the Family Truckster. This is just a lark - I'm not intending to make it a full release or anything, but it was fun to make. It only comes in metallic pea green with wood panelling - no company colors. It seats 7 if you put 1 passenger on the roof. No room for livestock (dogs) in the car.

Course, I did also make a Winnebago that I could code up too - maybe this will at some point be integrated into a vacation (lower case V) set in the future...

The red and green coloring reminds me of the tour cars in Jurassic Park. :)

Will it be animated ? ie. if empty there wouldn't be any person seen, probably other than the driver ?

I actually did another version last night that lessens the light effects so its a bit easier to see, and I removed the luggage (and aunt) from the roof if the car is empty. I drew a few other graphics over the last few days that I may fold into an actual released RV eye-candy GRF. This has mostly been a learning lesson for me to learn some graphics creation. I'm far from an artist, so the real challenge for me is getting the best result possible out of PixelTools (can't say enough about how cool that is) so I have to do as little post production work as possible in Photoshop.

I don't think so. I just found the assets a few weeks go, but I don't think I never did anything with it aside from a PoC.
