Hey guys, welcome to another tutorial. I got a few questions from students who were having trouble doing front and rear end designs which inspired me to create this tutorial. Doing a nice front end design can be difficult because there’s a lot of elements coming together such as the lights, grill, intakes, sensors and so on. There s a lot more elements to design in a smaller space compared to the side view which is why it can be quite a challenge. In this tutorial, I’m discussing some key things to keep in mind when trying to create a new face and I’m also showing you guys a useful photoshop technique where you can quickly and efficiently render out new themes. This tutorial is not about how to include sensors or developing a new brand identity rather it’s showing you guys an easy to learn photoshop technique where it will allow you to be able to express and come up with many new and fresh design themes. Check out the video to learn more.

The exterior side view is the most important perspective when it comes down to judging the design and proportions. Which is why its so important to make sure your side view is on point! Because you're laying out your design in full view and cant hide or cheat anything like in other 3/4 perspectives, it is also one of the hardest views to get it right. In this video I take one of my former student final side view proposals and take you step by step and show you how to refine the design WITHOUT changing the initial design theme, the purpose of this tutorial is to show you how to improve your existing design themes and take it to the next level, so that you can take the topics you will learn and be able to apply it on your own designs, to generate high design quality side views.

In depth design explanation regarding line work/ theme refinement/ design language/ DO's and DONT's of design and many more tips and tricks to improve your side view. 3.

In this video tutorial, I will show you a different technique to create stunning design proposal using a photo underlay as a base starting point. Although this technique may be controversial, it is by far one of the most common techniques used by professional designers all around the world. The reason is that it takes half the time to create a design proposal that is twice as impactful. The trick is to make sure to change the underlaying photo proportions to your new design and not using any of the design features of the underlaying photo. This is a fun and efficient way to create an environment or mood for your design proposals. As you can see in my example, my final design was a sports car, so I chose the appropriate racetrack background photo environment to further enhance my design and help sell the design. In this tutorial I did a new line sketch over the underlay and will show you a complete demonstration from start to finish on how to go from a line sketch to a finished rendering as you see in the thumbnail above. You can apply the same technique you will learn in this video on all other examples, whether you want to do an off-road SUV in the desert or forest environment or a small commuter in a crowded city background. Using this technique will help sell your concept by putting your design in that environment. Not to mention how to use the existing underlay photo reflections and lighting to add that extra pop to your final rendering. I would love to see your trial of this technique, so feel free to send me your version after seeing this tutorial and I would glady give you some feedback to improve it even more! Thanks!
