#Carmageddon 1 concept #gameart spam thread. Been meaning to post this for a while now. Art mainly by Terry "Tez" Lane and Neil @nobby_SG Barnden. #retrogaming #dosgaming #gamehistory
Starting with Industrial zone docks.

Ah yeah, it's sadly mostly all low quality 🤷♂️
Industrial zone: acid baths, crane, powerups. These are very close to what we got ingame.

Now the City environment. That first painting was also used as the menu backdrop. (also blue complete Tanka in the bottom right corner)
Tez made concepts with a similar atmosphere 15 years later for Carmageddon:Reincarnation.

City: the slums and commercial district. Again some parts of the level geometry are very similar to what we see here.
The "Coastal" level: a famous bridge and a look at an early map design. Interesting how powerups were scarser, and the race wasn't looping.
Three other coloured pieces depicting an early Desert level (with the old GASSO sign (still in the files)), the Mayan Hotel (!!!), and the Sodburbs level with an early Fearrari F666 (that level evolved into the ski resort one).
The original sketches for the drivers. Moose became Vlad. Sawbones had to wait for the Splat Pack.
Then the original portraits used to make the ingame menu images.

Some cars now. An early blue Feararri F666, a red Towmeister, what probably led to the Plow, and a couple of cars very reminiscent of Grunge Buster and Road Bratt (tyres!).
Special tweet dedicated to Tanka! It was meant to have a trailer but that was cut due to the physics engine limitations.
Early Eagle designs. And a strange badge that could have appeared on it (for a long time I thought this was related to cops).
A more futuristic design (with a little batmobile vibe? The Batmobile inspired the Eagle Mk2 at least)
Great sketches of the cops (and what we ended up with ingame). Not sure if the last pic is also meant to be a cop or just a pilot.
Cop vehicles now: a bike and a bulldozer that didn't make it ingame. And an early Suppressor.
More vehicles! First one might've evolved into Fraud Broko? Second one has a serious Road Bratt look as well. The idea in the last one was used on PropShafter in Carmageddon 2.
Various vehicles. I really like the simple blades in the second picture.
Final tweet. Some other oddities. Almost forgot to post the last one, Rig O'Mortis.
