Moto Bike Design

 Today, and for the first time here, a moto bike design sketch! I know that I almost never proposed anything about moto bike design concepts and sketches...so I decide to do it today following always the rule of this blog which is: to be instructional.
This nice sketch is work of Xenophia Design and designer Ellis Pitt.
To discover the prototype they made and final result please click "Xenophia Design".

Fiat Bravo proposal by Victor Uribe Chacon

 Victor Uribe is a 2nd year student of Transportation Design Dpt at IED in Torino, Italy. Victor shows a good sensibility in using colors, perspective and also proportions. If we want to find something to criticize, we could say that the design could have been more creative a bit more advanced.
At the same time we do not know the project breaf so we cannot say much. What i like the most and that makes of this sketch a good one is: composition and car point of view, color choice and the good control of warm and cool colors.

Car sketching and ideation sketching

 Click on image for larger view

Dear friends,
often I write about good sketch books and the importance of making more than one. Today I publish a good example of ideation sketching and car design sketching made by Samir Sadikhov.
The key elements to check and try to copy are: proportions, drawing sections on sketches, perspective, dynamic composition on page, page format, focal point and interest, detailing. Naturally Samir's creativity is preatty good and the way he his sketching his ideas lets us imagine the rest, in other words Samir does not draw every single element and detail of his design proposal and this gives our imagination the opportunity to go over his proposal. We complete the design in our head, we partecipate to his work because he lets us do it by not making super finished and detailed sketches.
I suggest you to visit his blog clicking Samir's blog.
