Best batmobile design coming through.

Coffin with wheels.

Gotta love a car that is 2/3rds Engine.

Did the Reissue of that come out yet. That one was supposed to have Silver paint apps instead of just grey plastic along with a Batman and Robin with Fabric capes so they could actually sit in the Batmobile.

I'll admit this thread has an agenda.
I'm designing my own batmobile based on a few older designs as well as stuff I just like in general and I'd like some pointers as to what designs you like best of the existing vehicles and why.
Here's what I'm working with so far.

>>88607241
This car always seemed absurdly long to be practical to me.

Other than that it was awesome.

>>88607688
needs a single windshield not two. the separation between the two windshields would obscure your vision while driving.

>>88607764
>absurdly long
Isn't that a staple of the batmobile though?

>>88607688
Watch that you don't end up with Arrowcar.

>>88607818
Not that I noticed, no. I mean there were some hilariously stretched designs over the years but as a general rule...

>>88607688

>>88607688
The side view silhouette looks very...goofy. Try to sleek up the overall shape. Right now it's very blobby.

Also, the front of the car looks like a proboscis monkey with those "eyes" and fatass "nose".

Right now you have a lot of sleek shapes, but no OVERALL shape to the Batmobile. You need to give a sense of direction even when it's standing still.

You need to think about how these shapes interact to form a whole. How these things will appear to move at different angles. You've clearly designed it to look good from the front, and it looks alright from that angle, but not so good at every other angle. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

The Tombstone is the perfect Batmobile because it was designed by people who know all these things.

Design is a science, not an art. Master design first, then work on the bells and whistles.

>>88607292
That'd make a great band name.

>>88607430
Get the fuck out

>>88607932
yes exactly that. might want to wrap it around the side a bit too. so he has some peripheral vision while driving. but thats just from seeing it from the front it might have enough as is.

Yep, I've been thinking the same thing.
>the front of the car looks like a proboscis monkey with those "eyes" and fatass "nose".
Goddamnit I was afraid of that.
The thing about overall design is a good tip to consider. I was borrowing a bit from aston martin on the side silhouette but I guess it's a bit too "comfort" oriented for the batmobile.

What kind of look are you going for? I think it looks good, but fairly basic. I'd also try to make it look almost like a creature of the night. Not literally, of course, but kinda what >>88608105
said, just not this >>88608142's extent. The batmobile should be able to be as intimidating in shape and structure, like someone sculpted a part of a cathedral onto the road, but more simple in deisgn. I think the way yours curves is great, and I'd definitely would hang on to that, though.

Dawg this is garbage. It looks like it was deigned by a toy company to force into one of the shitty Batman cash in cartoons. You'd be better off trashing that frame all together and starting with something more simple.

Batman Beyond Batmobile

>>88608506
Very good fins, but the one over the hood looks a little odd. Bring back the shark one I think. Also, I like your idea for how he jumps into the batmobile.

I think making the shape of the hood more angular might help with throwing off the chester the cheetah look.

>>88608397
Bat-corner repelent

>>88608591
None taken. I've been trying to figure out how to make it less like a face throughout.
I think removing the middle segment on the windows helped a bit.
>>88608615
It already is a fairly simple model. It takes time before I can move on to tightening up the edges and things or It will be an unmitigated mess of polys.
>>88608650
I'll try that out.

>>88608506
>How are these fins?
Not defined enough. The side fins are too short, and the middle fin looks lmore like a Mohawk than a fin. Tighten the base of the fins on the sides and give the middle fin more of a swept back look. If you're going full fin, go full fin, it should look like a bat wing. If you're not going full fin, refine it to more like a car fin look.

That just looks like someone pinched a clay model of the car fin look awkwardly in a few places.

I like the ducted jets for the engines. something that could be covered up with shifting plates. And the retractable fins.

Works with those that say "why not just have a sports car" Which he actually did for part of the Blue and Grey years.

Okay, so I fixed up the windows a bit so they conform more to the contour of the car instead of being a large flat surface facing right into the direction of highest air resistance as well as sharpening up some details, giving the hood some sharper angles and expanding the fins.

She's even a one-of-a-kind prototype like most fictional Batmobiles too, built by a member of the Heinz ketchup dynasty who wanted to make his mark elsewhere, but passed away before they could put it into production. Top speed of 115 mph. In 1938. Gorgeous goddamn perfection.

>>88610344
It had a sort of bug-like appearance, if I remember correctly.
You can easily see it at the beginning of issue 51.

>>88608182
The side view surprisingly resembles Burton's Batmobile. It certainly is a good combiantion between tacticool and vintage.

Huh, y'know that design really is vastly improved by removing the giant fin. I get they were trying to evoke the old-school Batmobiles, but I always thought that shit was ugly even as a kid. Taking it off emphasizes how low to the ground the car really is and makes it look faster and fiercer, IMO.

This one was actually the only Batmobile I have ever liked.

it's a turbine, the thing had a jet engine instead of a car engine. That's why it had that flame exhaust in the rear.

>>88616504
>jet engine
It was an atomic reactor actually.

Chop off the giant schnoz from the front, and taper the hood at a slope like this here.

Drop the middle fin entirely and flatten/square off the roof a little. I liked the idea you mentioned of a segmented armored roof that looks like it retracts. Smooth out the bottom edge of the windshield so there's no pointy bit poking up.

Maybe make the side fins a bit "sharper"? A bit more of a point at the back, maybe a couple ridges moulded into the top side of them to give that bat wing aesthetic.

And THAT is why I think insisting that ASB&R is canon to TDKR is silly. There are lots of little contradictions, such as Batman doing the "Sure we're criminals.

It would be small enough to zip around busy city streets and be inconspicuous when it needs to be, but also big enough and beefy enough to carry all the armor and equipment it would need, and to serve as a mobile command center.

So really, as boring as it sounds, probably just a plain old white pedophile van.

I have completely given up on those movies, but the Batmobile is fantastic. One of, if not the best design. Suicide Squad had the superior version, however.
