3/4 View

3/4 view of the H2HH .. still getting the hang of the rendering of motorbikes. ANY tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
-Need to work on making the triangular piping looking more striking and embedded in the body of the bike. Looks quite flat at the moment

-From this view I do like the dip that the body has which leads onto the piping, Looks as though the bike has strong bulky shoulders, yet still slims out so that its overall width is manageable for the rider.
Will need to find out what the width of this compartment will need to be in order to accomodate the storage of a helmet and other items.

Cool

sooo cool, love this idea.. all the mechanisms are so cutback. It's more like an appliance then a bike, such a great feel to it.

H2HH

-Dynamic, clean flowing body, contrasted with the red triangular pipe framing.. as if showing off the skeletal structure of the bikes body.

-Continuation of one of the struts of the frame, to wrap around to the back of the bike.. which also acts as the supporting hand hold for the passenger

I have lowered the seat height to just above the height of the tires, with an even shallower dip in front of the seat to allow for easy maneuverability of wheeling the bike around.. as well as giving the rider the reassurance of being able to have both feet planted on the ground.

The front storage compartment is able to fit a helmet comfortably, with enough room to also store other things such as a jacket, books, phone, wallet etc...

Panther like form.. sleek and strong upper shoulders, reinforced through the choice of a black body kit.

Layout:

2 steps backward... 3 steps forward.

-A bit of rethinking of my concept direction after reviewing my key aspects through my latest development.. and decided that I was not satisfied with the aesthetic that they had.
-At first I wanted to have an exposed engine, naked chassis to achieve the idea of 'not trying to be something your not', so showing the bare bones of the bike. But I have now realised that there are other ways of going about this..
Covering up of all mechanical aspects of the bike: for our target market of 2018.. the mechanics of the bike will more or less only be an aesthetic element to have. 
16-22 year olds will not care how the bike functions,so lets cover it up. 
Helps also to further reinforce the idea of FLOW.. fluid organic body.

-Also through feedback that I received from Paolo about this concept his main points reflected the ideologies behind my approach:
*Non-aggressive general proportions
*Dynamic details,
*Simple non-intimidating forms and shapes


-I have also decided to switch around the space of my storage and fuel.. in order to lower the centre of gravity on the bike.. thus reinforcing the idea of BALANCE.
As well as the general shape of the front compartment being able to better accomodate a helmet, and also being accessible whilst mounted on the bike. 


-The pipe framing through the middle of the bike will be the main visual feature which draws attention to the bike.. screaming safety and reliability. It will sit flush with the body of the bike, and actual piping will be embedded into the side. It would almost be like if you were to tear away a patch of skin from your ribs and have your rib cage exposed.. same sort of aesthetic.

During the day this will be seen as bright coloured frame.. which will contrast with the black body of the bike.
Whilst at night, I would like the frame to be able to light up to add to this defining feature, as well as being a very helpful safety feature.

Update of latest sketches

-Flow
-Efficiency
-Balance

Realised that this kind of frame is not going to work.. connected all the way to the rear wheel, obviously needs a brake before there in order for the swingarm to be attached. 

Form is a bit more agreesive or perhaps I should use dynamic.. I don't think this is an issue, because it doesn't make the bike anymore less or more intimidating. Just more dynamic and in my mind interesting which is not a bad thing.
-Would like to explore the lighting up on the tubular structure as not only a safety feature but as a personality for the bike 

This is a progression of my Hydrogen hybrid concept..  pretty unrealistic at the moment, but the idea is that the frame will pierce into a main cylinder where the mechanics of the hybrid motor will be stored. Very skeleton like, a lot of empty space.. but then again often Less Is More

Underseat storage space. The idea is that the dip in front of the main seat acts as a step through as well as a convenient access space to the storage, so you can put all your personal belongings from your pocket and things easily into this space whilst on the bike.

-To access the main or larger route of storage.. you slide the rider seat forward, which unlocks rear seat, and one you pivot the rear seat up.. access to the space is granted

Proposed Hydrogen Installment

Hydrogen fuel cell, utilising air intake and hydrogen fuel, powering an electric motor..
With large underseat capacity storage.
