Hand Sketches with Markers. Tad too hairy- lines need a little more confidence.

Hey man, haven't been on your blog for a while, good to see you keep it up to date (something I tried and failed miserably at :D )
About the car sketches, seems you might start to make them a bit overly elaborate with details.. I prefer the cleaner shapes of the earlier models.
Have you seen the new Saleen concept btw? Somehow also reminds me a bit of your sketches.

Thanks man- you are probably right about details. I am trying to do some more elaborate surfaces- a little break from the clean surfaces that you see everywhere.

Yes- I saw the Raptor as well. It looks like they switched from Phil Frank. I have to say that I do like the more purposeful look of the Raptor design. It would be good to see more information on the design development.

Ken Okuyama's work at the Geneva show has a lot of the design themes that I was exploring though he has a cleaner more precise look to his designs.
