The Carnivorous Cart is a 3D Go-Kart Model created for the Game Art 2 course in DAE, Howest. We were given the freedom to create any type of Go-Kart, as long as it clearly had the key elements of one (big wheels, a steering wheel, engine, exhaustion pipes, fuel tank). I started the project by creating 20 quick concept sketches to explore different ideas. After judging the sketches together with some close friends, I decided to go with a Carnivorous plant inspired Go-Kart design.

In the refined concept art, I focussed a lot on bringing the Go-Kart features more to the front, while still incorporating the important carnivorous plant elements. If you pay close attention you can see I added a spider at the front of the Go-Kart.
In my initial concept sketch, I went very rough and fast, focussing mostly on the idea of a very pointy and dangerousliy looking carnivorous plant kart using several elements I found from carnivorous plants online (exhaust pipes, seat, front, sides, steering wheel, wheels).
