Their used to be a car illustrating tutorial

[Clark]

I can't remember if I bought this thing or if it came from the internet, but I used to have a very good tutorial on how the great illustrators do their cars.  It was a step-by-step deal.  I have looked everywhere and can't find it.  ANyone know where I can find this or have one I could buy?

So, anyone at Badbonz, does Jeri still have tutes?

Jeri was gracious enough to give us most of her goodies, which I proceeded to put on www.badbonzdesigns.com to help other artists and shops. Most everything is in PDF format so you can print it out and read it while you're working away on the computer! Be sure at the very least to leave her an email and tell her thanks for the contribution!

Unfortunately, the question is a little general for a specific answer..
There are alot of great car illustration tutorials out there.
But yeah, definitely check out Jeri's tuts. She rips.

On a semi-related note, most tutorials can only show you how to twist a wrench.
'art' or 'vision' or 'whatever' must come from within. Tutorials teach mechanics.
Inspiration is much more illusive.
.02 for the topic.

Cheers man.
Hope you find what you seek.

There's no 2 ways about it that the inspiration in the art is everything, but then it has to be pulled off by wrench turners. There's an art to that as well. My personal inspirations make me want to play music, but my appreciation for art, (but lack of creative artistry) makes me work as a mechanic in the graphics world, and I still love it even after 35+ years. My creations for simple work run from the standard sports design to slightly more complicated, but I most enjoy figuring out how to make an artist's work shine on a shirt. In music, there is a score, but the playing of the score is where it's at. In photography, there is the negative, where the information is captured, but the print is the performance. For me, screening is the performance in which we try to hold true to the designer's ideals.
