Description

A detailed guide to creating new retro-futuristic fantasy vehicles for sci-fi illustrators!

This all-in-one guide takes you inside the artist's studio to learn first-hand how to conceptualise and draw new fantasy sci-fi vehicles. This book gives fantasy illustrators detailed information on the following topics:

  • Designing three-dimensional vehicles using a perspective grid, schematics, blueprints and linear and axial measurements
  • Using real-world inspirations from modes of transport to animals and organic forms as the basis for more fantastical forms and creations
  • Illustration techniques that allow you to create realistic three-dimensional vehicles: line, depth, shadow, colouration and rendering the surfaces of various materials
  • Step-by-step tutorials, six in all, allow you to create sci-fi mash-ups of cars, copters, jet fighters and battleships or use these designs as the inspiration for your own creations

Illustrated with over 450 drawings and examples, this book is the perfect springboard to creating your own mind-blowing mecha vehicles. Your imagination will soar as these fantastic machines come to life!
