Survival Vehicle - Second Sketch

After getting feedback, I decided it would be a good idea to make one more sketch to experiment with one more design and choose between the two. 

So, following the feedback I've been given, I chose this one:


It has this kind of elongated shape that leans slightly back, which makes it look more dynamic and interesting. Overall, I feel like it looks more aggressive, which is what you would expect from a demon apocalypse. 

I quite like the gigantic light source on top, which would be an interesting gameplay element and would make sense as a weapon or at least something to distract and slow down the hordes of demons. 

So I started to sketch. 


There were a few things that I changed from the initial iterration. First of all, I added more detail such as the spikes on the wheels and the steel plates on the sides and bottom of the vehicle. I noticed that my other vehicle was fully protected on the sides, but had nothing to protect it's underside, so I added them here. I also remembered to leave space for the door this time, though I think on the final design there might be necessary to leave a bit more. I also changed the giant headlight on the top of the car: Instead of it being nailed down straight into the top of the car, I gave it a support that would enable the player to get on top of the car and move it to scare the demons off. I added more smaller spikes on the front of the car since it looked a bit empty. 

These are the two sketches:

 
I won't lie: the second one looks cleaner, more practical and agressive, while the first one now looks a bit like a toy car compared to it. I think I have already made my choice, but I will wait for the feedback before making a final decision.
