Quick old-school F1 car sketch


Equipment: Black Pilot ballpoint pen, 1.6 mm

Peugeot Onyx Sketch and rendering




This is the result of a thursday night's work. I feel I am starting to become more and more "fluent" in Photohsop and I'm very pleased with how the rendering turned out! You can tell that I have been correcting the sketch, using the liquify tool, quite alot before adding shades and color, which is something I aim to do less in the future.

Audi Sketch / Render

 Photoshop Rendering:

Original Sketch:

Tonight I have taken a well needed break from the creation of my portfolio and instead sketched some cars. I started of sketching the car by hand on an A3 paper. (first image) I took inspiration from a cool sketch I found on google and did my best to copy it. (no underlay). Then, after some tries, I was quite happy with the perspective and the proportions so I scanned the sketch and brought it into Photoshop. There I fixed some small errors in the perspective by using the "liquify" tool, cleaned the sketch up a bit and finished the rendering. I'm really happy with the result! FINALLY I got it right! 

Range Rover Evoque Backpack Concept







2021 Update: There is now an ongoing initiative to actually take inspiration from this bag concept design to produce a real bag in a collaboration between me and a guy who is starting his own cloth/accessories brand! This is just absolutely insane and so exciting! 

Original Post: I'm currently working on a Project for school, where the assignment is to design a backpack inspired by the Range Rover Evouque (Google it if you don't know what it looks like. VERY nice car!). The teacher of the project is Tony Catignani and so far it has been a really fun project. Underneath the sketch/rendering is a rough clay model, which I am going to go down and try to finish now. It will be a late night, but at the same time the work is very rewarding when I've gotten this far into the Project!

Somehow I can get just as much done in one hour in the night as I can in three hours in the morning... Hmmm.. I wonder why...

Equipment: Clay, Wacom Cintiq (Photoshop Cs5)

This is me

 
So this is me, or correctly speaking transparent pieces, taken from 6 different pictures of myself, put together.. I study at Umeå University of design and is on the way of fulfilling my dream of becoming a professional designer. My opinion is that the best designers know how to have fun while sketching and really that's what this blog is all about. Here I will post all sorts of creations, quick sketches, renderings, computermade sketches, handmade sketches, some schoolrelated work, other stuff made just for fun and probably alot of crappy dumps, which I will look back at in 5 years time and wish I never took the time to upload... Anyway, I do this because I want to show my progress and my development as a designer and hopefully inspire someone to find the joy in sketching along the way. Please ENJOY!
