step 1 of 11

I created the wheels using a circle spline and lofting the shape of the tyre and rim. To get the spokes I used the array tool to duplicate the spokes around the hub, which itself was made from oiltank and cylinder primitives.

Here's the pop up for the array tool. it controls how many, and direction of instances copied.

Started adding parts to the cart mainly box and cylinder primitives.

Added the provided chair to the model.

The front axle and front axle board assembly. Again basic primitives, hardly any edges. Made it easier later on when I unwrapped the UV's for texture mapping.

The brake assembly, was kept pretty simple again. mainly boxes and cylinders. I used an extruded Ngon for the nuts holing the brake lever.

step 7 of 11

The completed model. For the string I added a cloth modifier set to heavy leather and set the cart and floor as collision objects. I let the simulation run until the string had settled then converted to an editable poly.

Okay in Vue I created the texture for the tyres. I added a grainy fractal to distribute the mud over the tyres then addeda simple noise fractal to create the bumps and nobles in the tyres.

The environment was painted onto the scene using the global environment painter. I used long grass, reeds, small field plant and small yellow and orange flowers.

This is the material for the planks under the seat. I added the mapped texture then reduced the bumps.

step 11 of 11

This is the chrome material for the wheels and spokes. I again used a grainy fractal to spread rust around the chrome.
