This can very well be what this beast sounds like: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES0Q5D…
A more recent finished piece of artwork, from another project of mine, basically a Hot Wheels meets Bakugan sort of thing, though instead of toy cars, they're actual sized cars. So it's kinda like Transformers, but they're biomechanical monsters instead of robots. And it's a vehicular combat video game kind of project, like Twisted Metal, instead of a toyline or whatever.
This is basically a reworked version of this old design for this car I made: www.deviantart.com/jakeburner/…
Though I only had the illustrator file for the side of the car, so I reworked the top, front and rear view. I decided the dual superchargers made the design look like a rip off of the Hot Wheels Twin Mill. I mean initially, I designed it as a sort of "modified" spin off of the Twin Mill, but I eventually decided to go with something original, and decided to just keep one supercharger and add two turbochargers, thanks to some inspiration from some artwork from my buddy
NGL, the front view looks much better than the one from the older design. Kinda glad I redid it from scratch. The rear view is always the hardest part for me whenever I do car artwork like this.
So yeah, that's all I have for this beast here for now. I have sketched up the beast form for this and I have some ideas for other Trak-Beasts, one such being based off of a Vauxhall Corsa, and its beast form being a tortoise. And the name for the thing? The "Byzmil Tortoise". Yeah, that's the best I can come up with XD
---------------------------
UPDATE: Redid the blower, adjusted the fenders and side skirts, changed the tail lights and rear exhaust and added a licence plate
UPDATE 2: Yes, another update. This time, I completely redid the rear of the car.
UPDATE 3: Yep, yet ANOTHER update. After seeing the K.S Masked Leader car in The Crew 2, it inspired me to redo the front end, since looking at the previous version, it looked kinda dull looking and generic.
UPDATE 4: Removed that thin missile looking thing under the side exhaust. In the original plan I had for Dragonfire, that "missle" is actually the side of jet wings that extend out, so the car could fly. But I scrapped it, since they seemed redundant thanks to DF's beast form being a dragon.
UPDATE 5: Minimized the plating on the side exhausts, removed the metal blades and readjusted the carbon splitters.
UPDATE 6: Shrunk the rear wheels slightly and added a rear axle.
UPDATE 7: Revised the bodywork; shortened the length, removed the huge side exhausts, removed the air splitters on the rear wing and designed the whole engine layout.
