3 out of 5 stars NOT A TUTORIAL BOOK   July 27, 2010
mayanerd
The book is an excellent presentation of art works of Scott but nevertheless it's not a tutorial text or provides any information on how to render your work the way scott does.

I would rate it as a 5 star draw thru collection, and only 1 star tutorial, thats why i am rating this total as 3 stars only the same goes for start your engines and cosmic motors.

If you wanna learn how to render and draw perspective as scott does you gonna have to buy his gnomon dvd collection.



4 out of 5 stars GREAT!   July 26, 2010
Cuenta P. Banamex (Mexico)
The only Part i didint like about this book, it was
that they are some drawings look like my nephew did it....
Is not an instruction book,
Great for inspiration i must say, great imagination and execution


5 out of 5 stars Surely they must fly!!   October 2, 2008
Robert Moyses (Australia)
This is the other half of complimentary book "Start your engines"

Scott Robertson's unique vehicle designs are applied to things that fly in this book.

You will see the process of firstly small quick rough sketches until he finds a shape and then develops the most liked shapes further. The next step goes into more detailed sketches with full vanishing points laid out.
The final art is then revealed in amazing detail and believability.

If you are learning about concept and design pick this up now, also look at the tutorial videos and other books.

5 out of 5 stars Really cool inspiration!   December 31, 2007

I'm no 3d master, but when I wanted to get back into it I was looking for some inspiration. This book didn't let me down. It's filled with mind-bending stuff from really talented people.


5 out of 5 stars Revealing Design Process   December 12, 2007
Charles Houghton (New York, NY USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Scott Robertson is an educator as well as a designer. That shows in this book, editorially, since he reveals early thumbnail, development sketches and final renderings. If you want to see a designer's process laid bare, here's a helpful resource. Don't forget Scott's Gnomon DVDs, as they further expose his process and techniques.
