Week 2 - Construction Vehicle Reference Gathering

Week 2 - Construction Vehicle Reference Images

Today we went out and gathered Construction Vehicle Reference images, from a cement factory out behind COSTCO at pride park.
I managed to get quite a lot of reference images but I liked this Vehicle the most.
This construction vehicle is a CASE 721C

Below are the images That I have chosen to use as my reference images,
There a front sides and back shots and also detail shots.
This is not all of my images just some of the best reference shots, I have a lot more that I can go back to and look at as I model for additional reference for the different parts of the vehicle.
Also for the Front, Back and side shots, I made sure that I was stood as far back as possible to fit all of the side of the vehicle in and then, I paced out how far from the vehicle i was for the side shot ( the widest shot) so that then for the front and back shots I could pace out the same distance meaning that the vehicle would be semi-accurately the same size when I come to using the images in Maya and it will make the perspective a lot easier to model from. I will be putting these images in Photoshop to ensure they are all level using grids and rulers, then I will use the the painting tool to box out the different parts that I can split the modelling into.
