David Kimble's Cutaways: The Techniques and the Stories Behind the Art Hardcover – 17 September 2015

Wunderbare Zeichnungen. Man kann die Augen gar nicht davon lassen. Unglaublich die Zeichentechnik von David Kimple, eine Präzision. Tolle Verbindung von Ingenieur und Kunst. Leider im Zuge der CAD-Syteme eine aussterbende Technk.

If you follow Cutaway art at all, you will know that David Kimble is the top guy in the field. With the advent of so much computer graphics power being available, this is becoming a truly lost art. The detail in a Kimble piece is almost more than you can take in at times, as it is so layered that it is tough to interpret, but that is the beauty of a piece of art showing a complex organism like an automobile ... and he puts it all in there. This book goes into his technique which tends to be counter-intuitive, as much of it is done "upside down" compared to most artists. If you have ever considered doing one of these, or have looked on it in wonder, or do illustration of your own, it will be of interest for you to see how one of the all-time masters of the artform creates his treasures. Great addition to any library that includes automotive subjects.

I bought this as a Birthday present for my (43yr old) son. He and I liked it so much I bought 2 more,one for myself and one for a good friend of mine. Nuff said.

...And a signed copy at that!
