**wayfarer** · September 24th, 2003, 08:46 AM

**F3nix** · September 24th, 2003, 10:08 AM

DAMMIT!!! MORE VEHICLES?!?!?!?!!?

sigh...

I'll try to see what I can do...:mad:

**davi** · September 24th, 2003, 10:12 AM

sigh i have a feel this is going to be a rough topic for most people, just try it at least even if you know you can't pull of something. i suggest giving it an honest shot.

good luck all!

This is my first post to the DSG. Futuristic motorcycle and rider. Keep in mind that in the year 2500 the pollution is so bad that it stunts your growth, making the average person's height around 5'5"

**OLSEN** · September 24th, 2003, 11:07 AM

Wayfarer-> thats funny, i like.

**sone_one** · September 24th, 2003, 12:06 PM

[edit] i noticed too late (for my patience) that it got no opportunity to get in... or out :p

**Roeguard** · September 24th, 2003, 12:49 PM

Bout an hour, more or less

**moops** · September 24th, 2003, 02:09 PM

I missed the last three, I started suffering from withdrawal.
Cool idea Roeguard.

**davi** · September 24th, 2003, 02:29 PM

i tried to save my piece with 30 minutes more to the design. was trying to think of how i wanted the akira bikes to be some what like.

**F3nix** · September 24th, 2003, 02:35 PM

**wayfarer** · September 24th, 2003, 04:59 PM

wow, odd, that is awesome. and you´re not satisfied with it...
nevertheless, i gave it a try and made a motorbike by myself. Here you are

**Gumdrop** · September 24th, 2003, 05:34 PM

I wasn't going to do this one as I couldn't think of a design, but then I happened to see a story in the newspaper about grayhound racing.

I don't have time now to add wheels, but I like the idea so might take it further at a later date.

Cool designs everyone... particularly oDD.

**unknownharold** · September 24th, 2003, 05:40 PM

with the gorgeous uniqueness of high wheeled bicycles of the late 1800s, elegance of female horseback riders, the gyroscopic advancements of segway-esque technology, pillowyness of branded ghostdogs, and the plump ass of angelina jolie, here is a retroretroretrospective motorcycle of 2500 (the prequel to atari's 2600 retrocycle)

**OLSEN** · September 24th, 2003, 06:41 PM

Number 2 for me today..

Nice work all.

**Hunger_Artist** · September 24th, 2003, 07:22 PM

got my scanner working.. sketched this in math class

**boehmke** · September 24th, 2003, 07:37 PM

Around 2 hours in PS.

**jmascho** · September 24th, 2003, 08:00 PM

**Jeano** · September 24th, 2003, 08:52 PM

AWSOME STUFF! Me like me like!

**MrMojo** · September 24th, 2003, 09:45 PM

Nice, jmascho.

**Beatnik** · September 24th, 2003, 09:54 PM

Awesome stuff everyone. Davi nice update. Odd, it's got a cool look man. Roegard, moops, olsen, all sweet in their own way. Mike nice work as always. Hunger I did some of my best stuff back in math class! Boehmke it looks like we both named the bike after the dsg but I didn't feel like taking it out

Harold please keep posting, you rock man. Weird, but you rock.

jmascho I'd hate to be behind that thing when the dude backs up. Nice look. Gumdrop you have to add the wheels man, it looks great so far. kgb I think we both had an idea of that overhead thing. I was initially thinking roll bar/cage but then I thought it would make a good place for a monitor.

I usually don't comment but I thought it was a nice turnout today. You guys all inspire me to do better in your own way and I just thought I'd mention it. I know that over time my work will improve and it's because you guys make me want to try harder.

/me puts the beer down.

Anyway, here's mine for tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen, Bicrosoft® proudly introduces the brand new model DSG-213 for 2500.

**devilbunny** · September 24th, 2003, 11:24 PM

hi. i'm really not very happy with this, but it was worth a shot.

**William b. Hand** · September 25th, 2003, 12:35 AM

I'm not done with this...
It's been fun because I've never done highlights like this, but I've always wanted to. It's also been educational, because I've never drawn a motorcycle before. I tried to really look at one I passed while walking the dog. It was one a them Japanese racing types, which this really isn't, but it gave me certain basic forms to think about.

In retrospect, I'm realizing that there's not much that's futuristic about my design... Oh, well. I guess I was focusing so hard on making it look like a motorcycle that I neglected that aspect.

My faves today:
oDD's is just beautiful, nevermind his misgivings.
unknownharold's because of the dog. That should be a tattoo on somebody.
jmascho's says "the future will be pointy", which I agree with.

**Mykro** · September 25th, 2003, 02:25 AM

Hour and a half. I wanted a hover chopper. Kinda retro, but the way things look, retro is now a staple of design in all times.

**mtomczek** · September 25th, 2003, 02:41 AM

Well I had some freetime tonight, so i figured I would do one myself. Looks more like a crotch rocket, but its stretched, and the rider lays on his/her stomach, with arms out in front. (working on illustration now) Bike is jet powered, and all the crazy stuff. Ended up really just wanting to draw a sport bike. About an hour and a half on this. Peace
