A good read DPROX,

UK Design Council
http://www.design-council.org.uk/en/...motive-design/

The article in the link above can be applied to the design stage of this project. some tailoring should be done to suit the project, though.

Design process: typical stages

1. Establishment of vehicle specification
   Carried out by multi-disciplinary team to establish parameters and decision points. This group will remain responsible for ensuring that discipline activities are completed to schedule.
   [if we build a PhUV, some of the specs are mandatory. defined na]
2. Informal discussion of first concept sketches (based on focus groups, theme boards and mood boards)
   Initial selection of two-dimensional (2D) design themes to be progressed.
3. Informal selection of concept sketches (internal to design team) go to management review.
4. Management review of concept sketches
   For marketing research normally 3-4 concepts are provided. Three-dimensional (3D) CAD models are produced at this stage.
5. 2D market research
   Concepts shown to members of the public for their comments.
6. Presentation of reworked concepts addressing the market research input
   Public attitudes are used to inform the revision of concepts.
7. Approval for detailed engineering
   Full-size clay models produced, normally of more than one concept. These are normally milled out of clay by a 5-axis milling machine from CAD data and hand-finished. CAD models are updated and released to engineering throughout the process for detailed analysis and progression towards manufacturing.
8. Three-dimensional market research – theme selection
   Full-size exterior and interior concept models are shown to members of the public for their comments. One concept is selected, informed by public opinion.
9. Final approval of 3D theme model
   Management team gives final approval to one theme model and this is then fully resolved as a three-dimensional clay model.
10. Final feasibility development of chosen theme
    The full-size clay model is scanned and a new 3D digital model produced. A full-size hard data control model is machined using this CAD data as a permanent reference for the intended appearance and craftsmanship. Other engineering disciplines are then responsible for the feasibility of the final design in terms of operation, manufacture and meeting legislative requirements while maintaining the design intent as demonstrated on the Data Control Model.
11. Final approval of 100% feasibility

guys, what's your opinion?

Lio;

This is exactly my point - di ba Common Sense lang. HOw can th PVMAP - (is that right) launch a new product - ni wala pang pinakikitang conceptual drawings for the public.

Buick entered just a Concept Drawing last 2 years ago in the Detroit MOtor show. It was a drawing showing only the half part of the car. Why wouldthey exhibit just a drawing in the show? BasicaLLY - TO SEE HOW THE PUBLIC WOULD REACT. Napaka secretive naman ng mga Pinoy Car Asemblers - eh ano ba ang tinatago nila? ..... hmmmmm - palagay ko - dapat na nga lang siguro nilang itago. ( )


I can bet - mukhang AUV pa rin lalabas yung concept nila - because I have the impression an limitado ang imagination ng mga in house designers nila... kasi - limitado din ang exposure sa mundo... kundi man - masyadong preoccupied lang ang mga brains with local politics and local tabloid type media.

Anyway - Lio - I made a little enhancement dun sa concept sketch mo of a PHUV.

Hope you like this one.

I hope I did justice to your drawing. By the way - there are tutorials in Car Design News... try it. This will further improve your rendering skills. When this project of yours pushes through - we will be needing more talents in rendering. In a Design studio - The Chief Designer needs at least 5 to 10 Cad Designers/ Engineers who are also good in renderings and translating concepts as they evolve during coffe breaks. I always keep a paper and pen with me everytime my Boss and I go out during coffee breaks... you never know when you find and see inspirations.

Wow, OyiL, ayan, buti ka pa meron ka nang renderer
Ang galing pa! :clap1:
Ehnriko, are you using any special graphics program?
Marunong ka ba mag-3D Studio Max?
I've seen how AutoCad 2006 and later versions already have a rendering button.
If I had the time, I would have wanted to learn Autodesk Viz, which is a dedicated visualization and rendering program.
But 3D Studio Max takes the cake, kasi it's really geared towards animation.
Sana magka-members tayo na expert dun.
This does not mean minamaliit natin ang hand drawing.
Any which way you cut it,
Mano-man is still greater than machine.

I am an idiot when it comes to remembering names of the softwares I am using... actually - tamad na nga ako gumawa ng mga manual work - even with a tablet. but, I was already used with MS paint and a mouse. KAso - my assistant wanted me to try Photoshop... while he renders our Cad model in Studiomax. I enjoyed using it. I still think I am an amateur when it comes to rendering... kasi - parang mas maganda pa rin yung nasa loob ng utak ka na version. Dprox - The Cruiseaider concept nga pala is based on the standard Owner type Chassis.

Lio, don't over estimate the big guys in the Philippines... If you see the pattern in our Car Culture History... - masyadong mahaba ang progress curve. THe world is now making recycled plastic cars or recycled aluminum cars. Nasa Sheet Bending or Sheet Metal Stamping Technology pa rin tayo. SO if they are keeping something under their sleeves - trust me... if they cant make a really Beautiful Design - they will just get an existing model designed outside. ANyway, the point is - lets keep our energy with our group. and like a dynamo - let it generate to be a strong force in the very near future.

I agree. In one of the articles that dprox recommended, ganyan talaga gawa nila. yung major change 3 years average. pero if you notice they have small changes every year. para th car owners will be enticed to buy a new one. gayahin kaya natin yung idea na yun.

One of my very old sketch.

That's a probability. But what if, they are keeping it out of the major player's radars para when they officially launch it, may headstart na sila against the big boys.

now the light reflections are more realistic. i like the new dubz. good work.

Yes. I have read thos pero that was then, mas marami na yatang tutorials now. but i was thinking...if i can make a 3D model of my concepts, then let the software do the photo-realistic rendering, di ko na kailangang maging magaling mag render. yun nga lang, matagal bago matapos yung concept. bilisan ko na lang paggawa ng 3D model kaya. And you are right about having pencil and paper all the time. sometimes i see something that i think can be applied to my concepts..then i forget about it. wala na...i need an electronic idea recorder or a high-end digital camera. gastos a.

wow...

Good luck sa project ninyo.

. saludo kami sa inyo.
