EB-48S Concept

Emil — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 10:38:00 +0000

I designed this concept many years ago but didn’t developed it till now…. It’s another breed of EB brand, a mid engined V6 Supercharged 4.8L. The whole lighting system in this car is based on hi-bright LEDs with Neon back lights in the front. The tail-lights in EB-48S have 3 sections which their lights changes between three common colors(Red,Orange and white) continuously depending on the conditions. For example in day-light if the driver turn on the turn-indicator the whole tail-light flashes with the orange LED and if he brakes while turning two sections out of three turn red. In other words the tail-lights are prioritized, maximizing the amount of awareness for other drivers.

Hope you like it.

EB-One

Emil — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 17:56:36 +0000

After designing some unofficial concepts of famous brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini,Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Corvette,etc. I decided to make myself a brand with special characteristics of its own. For the first concept of EB brand I decided to design a super car to put some standards to the breed which the following concepts and ideas would inherit and follow them: Being Aesthetic, Powerful and Balanced.

Short description to the EB-One

For EB-One I wanted it to have a six cylinder Boxer 4.8L Supercharged engine generating 620HP to the rear wheels. The whole theme is 1+1 GT super car and also a convertible without losing the rigidity of the chassis affecting the handling. The Plexiglas roof of the car is easily detachable from the driver side and have a special cradle on the rear shelf right behind the passenger seats. The side vents behind the front wheels play two roles in car aerodynamic: First, easily passing the hot air which has gone through front radiators and engine itself through themselves and not keeping the air in the engine bay and second, in high speeds prevent the air to be compressed in tire cages and hold the car back from speeding up.

In all stages of designing this concept I wanted it to be beautiful, unique and different from any other car.

Porsche Carrera Concept

Emil — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 12:01:35 +0000

The basic idea of this concept was to create a different feel of the Porsche…..A Larger back end which in comparison with the existing Porsche and it was inevitable because I wanted to move the engine block forward, right on the rear axle( So technically it’s something between the Porsche’s conventional rear engine and the mid engine super cars) so the weight distribution would be improved a little bit more……and of course I didn’t like the way that Panamera looked like Which caused me to suggest an alternative design of the front-end which was at the same time close to the current Panamera design but more aesthetic. As I mentioned before the 6 cylinder boxer engine block is mounted right on the rear axle with four wheel drive. The tail light are full Hi-bright LED while the front lights are combination LED, HID Xenon and the old-school H4 Hi-Beams. I’ve read lots of comments on different sites that the viewers said that the rear lights of this concept is a copy of Nissan 370Z’s. I can say they couldn’t be more wrong and I wish they could pay more attention to the forms and styles.

I’ve got to mention about the proportion issues that this model is suffering at this point….when there isn’t any blueprint and you have to create the blueprints yourself of a brand new concept with brand new dimensions, believe me, it’s so hard to catch up the proportions when there is no real world scale models and everything goes right in your mind and 1/100 scale sheet blueprints….but I’m working on it to figure myself an easy way to cover these errors.

BMW 250tti Shockware Concept

Emil — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 11:36:43 +0000

This concept is meant to start over the 2-Series of BMW with a different channel within the production line, the legendary 2002 was one of my all time favorites and I wanted to resurrect the 2 series which has been out of production for a long time.

Shockware is not a word, but it’s a mean to describe a little of the feeling of this car and what it can do to your nerves . A compact coupe beholding a 5.0L V10 Twin-Turbo engine is going to be an extreme way of enjoying a ride……The overlapping spoiler which its angle of attack is electronically adjusted, generates enough down force at different speeds to stabilize the car.

P.S. I designed this concept at the same time with a 6-Series concept but unfortunately I didn’t have the time and energy enough to model that concept either. But I will definitely do refinements in the proportions in near future alongside with modeling the 6-series.

Lamborghini X Concept

Emil — Mon, 18 May 2009 10:16:44 +0000

When I saw the Lamborghini Reventon, to be honest I didn’t like it, especially the front end. I set a goal for myself to design a new concept of Lamborghini more matched to my likings and started designing the front end at the first days of Reventon’s release, but the rear end was done almost a year after when I found time because I was busy passing the draft period of military service. I modeled the concept after finishing my draft period. It’s mostly based on the Murcielago Chassis. The engine is conventional normal aspirated V12 engine used in Murcielago. The engine side cooling intakes are expandable based on the surface flexibility of the carbon fiber sheets. Hope you like it….

Chevrolet Corvette Z10

Emil — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 11:49:33 +0000

The idea of this concept came to me while I was in the training period of military service….the bold characteristic of this concept is the lights of the car and of course the changes in the dimensions of the car….It’s shorter and taller than the existing Corvettes. The front lights are configured as par Xenon HID and LEDs….The LED part which include many LEDs are meant to be the flashing hi beams due to their fast response to the electric current and the way it will affect the front drivers to become aware of the Z10 in the mirror without their eyes being disturbed by the flashing beams…..The conventional Xenon bulb will do the lightning up front and it will change the angle of the bulb automatically as the car speeds up lighting far more distance in front of the car…The rear panel of the car where the lights are is a Piano Black Plexiglas which covers the whole rear panel of the car….the rear lights are absolutely hidden behind this cover. The rear lights are back-lit by Neon toruses and the hazards and the brake lights are Hi-bright LEDs.

As you can see the car has two triangular exhaust pipes on either sides and one central mono-block exhaust tip in the back….The side triangular exhaust pipes are straight pipes from the catalytic converter which can be diverted to them from the conventional resonated catback by the electric valves on the exhaust system. There is a wide range of the engine sound selectable due to the drivers taste….so some how every single Z10 would have a unique sound to it depending on its own driver.

The engine of this car is a compact supercharged Boxer 8-cylinder mounted right behind the front suspension system and the side fins of the car are used to guide the warm air in the engine bay through either sides of the car reducing the coefficients of drag. The transmission is mounted on the rear axle helping the distribution of weight equally to both front and rear axles and also have a low gravity center close to the middle of the car’s wheel base. Enough of the description. Hope you Enjoy.

p.s. I’m aware that the proportions are not ideal and realistic, and as we all know that’s a matter of experience and practice which makes perfect end results. I’m workin’ on it .

Ferrari 612 Virile

Emil — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 10:06:59 +0000

The Base of this concept was Ferrari Enzo….But I tried to make it more balanced in design by having it a shorter nose and longer back end in comparison with the Enzo. Same engine and drive-train. Hope you enjoy.

BMW GT

Emil — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 23:28:50 +0000

The very first idea of this concept was to enroll a new imaginary class to the product line for BMW “Type of which BMW really missed in its nowadays Productions”…..so, I started sketching a mid-engined super sport, not to be a sleek super car but one muscular looking, raging super car…..The engine I was imagining for it was a V8 4.0 Liter Supercharged engine RWD……I know I know, I broke lots of rules but that’s the point, BMW always have done it, Right?

So….after a couple of sketches, I started modeling it, and once the modeling was over I decided, for the first time, to apply an HDRI technique to the environment instead of creating a normal virtual photography studio for it….

There are two points I really need to make on this post:

Although I 3D model my concepts ” I really want them to look like the same way as some other marker renderings and sketches with some exaggerated proportions “Like huge rims. low profile roof or other common exaggerations” . In other words, I don’t want them to look like a real car in the real world….I want them, to emphasize the fact that they are concepts and they’re not real; even though they are in HDRI environments or some Photography studios…
There were some compliments I read about the side of my concepts in different websites and forums, saying that there is too much going on at the side of the car…and I believe that’s true, but the point is; 3D modeling process is really time consuming, and I can’t have lots of modeled concepts in a short period of time, therefore I use my concepts as showcases of new ideas. For example,…there are too many air vents at the side of the BMW GT and they are just used together harmoniously to show the possibility NOT to dictate…

Six months ago I decided to refine this concept and recondition some of its proportions and refine it. Here are the results. These are exclusive renders which you can find them only here. Hope you enjoy

Ferrari F650 Melodious

Emil — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 11:38:41 +0000

I was at the early months of my draft period that I designed this concept car. This one is one of my favorite of all time….not also because of how it looks but the potential it’s got. There’s a high possibility that I get back to this model in near future and refine the 3D model and add more details to it and make it more close to the reality which is a sort of good news .

The F650 Melodious has a V12 4.2L normal aspirated mid-engine generating 650 bhp. There isn’t any crazy Sci-Fi characteristics to this car….I just wanted it to be a fine beautiful super car with proper mechanical advantages with minimal electronic limitations. Hope you enjoy.
