For all you guys that are interested a bit in cool design and cool sketches, I thought to present you with two guys that are up with the elite in Car/Design/Illustartion etc.



Syd Mead (Blade Runner Spinner Concept)

Pretty cool interview with legendary Designer Syd Mead (yes he is gay, but no matter)
He was my big idol back at design school (not cause he was gay, NO!)Today his stuff still looks cool and he did do the designs for movies like Star Trek (1), Tron, Blade Runner, 2010 and Aliens etc.
Anyway here is the vid
VID
SYDMEADS SITE

Today i would say there is a group of younger generation of illustrators/Designers that have surpassed him. Like this guy.

Daniel Simon (Sexy Magrela)

DANIEL SIMION SITE KICK ASS

If you're into Syd Mead's work I recommend the documentary Syd Mead: Visual Futurist.

Bravery is not a function of firepower.
