I think this is the right place to ask this question:
I once heard that markers were invented as an easier replacement for water color in design sketches. If this is true, when did this switch occur? I was just trying to figure out how those Loewy sketches on page 12 of this thread were made. Looks like graphite pencil, water color with a wide brush, and maybe prismacolor?
Magic Marker, pastel, Prismacolor pencil, white gouache, needed eraser. Magic Marker’s were invented in the 50’s. I remember getting high from the fumes when I used them a lot for a rendering.
I never thought a Chevy Beretta could look so cool. This is a good one to show the kids how ugly products get made. A sick render goes a long way to selling anything.
The economy of linework and gesture in the last four sketches is wonderful…so evocative of the stance and personality. Adding some foliage and a bikini - will remember that tactic for the future…
