Marker Rendering Sketches

At long last I bought a scanner so here some quick sketches I made some years ago. All made under 10mn with biro/marker/white pen.

well, clean i wouldnt call it, but it does look very creative!

true, very creative, but maybe make the lines less sketchy, still, [g00d w0rk!]

To be honest, those designs dont work for me, what I mean is, I probably wouldnt buy one of those cars. But I love your technique. You defenately get your light & shades down perfectly. Very good.

i like the third the best

I like it ! Remember y'all these were done quickly he said ... try it and see what ya'll can do in 10 minutes.
Good work.

These are nice I like them all, and actually these remind me of some automobile design sketches that my id teacher showed our class, they are meant to turn concepts to something sort of concrete on the paper. Yo gnasha, if you don not mind me asking how old are you? Are you a designer?

nice sketches i really like the orange one a lot

Not far from 30 and yes I am.
I tend to use computer for the coloring (cheaper in material) but still hand draw the line. Here's one I've done not so long ago (around 45mn for the coloring).

HA! I have found you out! I am joking...but seriously, I did. How long have you been in the field, got any tips for your brother from another mother whose is an inspiring designer?

7 years but only in handling plastic products for the industry, so it's more technical than esthetical. I'm currently trying to switch to design agencies to go back to something more consumer related. Are you thinking a career in design?

i am...any tips/help?

yeah same here...

I am but...not really sure how far it will take me. Currently I am in industrial design, though I love the idea of creating/changing things it seems as though people in this field do not become really known until they are in their late 30s-early 40s.

things take time in the visual arts field. it isn't like rock stardom. i draw storyboards and i want to start my own company drawing just cars. at least to start off the company. i'm 34. once i turned around 29 i didn't care as much anymore about my age. that seems to be a 20-something issue. or an 80-something one, too! :smokin:

What kind of company will it be? Graphic Designs? Or just like doing illustrations (if so for who, individuals, corporations?)? Sounds interesting

Well, yes there are few things that do not take time, but I do not know because there just does not appear to be like a "place" for designers. From what I have found out most designers end up doing a lot of freelance work like only those that are known seem to be secure.

company is "visual homage". the name is a registered domain as well as with city of los angeles. i'm gearing up to get it off the ground. it will begin by selling products to the import-tuner market. that is all i will disclose at this time besides that it will be heavily illustration-skewed at the outset.

i am freelance and have been for years. there is no security anywhere anyway. so forget it. to be an artist and thrust into the commercial world is just a shI*t sandwhich no matter how you slice it. you either make tens of thousands, sometimes millions, for someone else, or you try to embark upon innovation, offering a marketable product of your own creation. look at syd mead (designer of blade runner and countless millions of things. check out "kronoteko").
