Real free Handmade Sketches are always the best way to find and create a new and organic form. The basic proportions can be set, the basic shape defined by section lines can be defined. The character of a car can be evaluated. In the end it is also a fast way to design, and create something. And it is created from human hands, means with a human factor which requires also some thinking and feeling.
The design process of handmade 2D Handmade sketches in combination with digital Renderings has do be done to clarify the design. Shapes and forms can be changed, optimised and try outs are the base for the right outcome. The shape defines the brand. In this case neutral renderings are jsut showing an example. Every brand has for sure different brand face desings and different form languages.
2D Handmade digital Renderings of a car in Photoshop can show in an early stage the form with some shading and colors, means you can work out the organic form with light and shadow. This gives you a more clear view on the design. Different materials and materials can be added as a try for some alternative solutions.
