The Making of: A Bicycle illustration in Photoshop.
This is a little different to my normal photographic work, but the slide-show below shows the making of a concept bicycle illustration in Photoshop. I designed the bike for a “Commuter bike” competition last year and made the finalists. You can see the other finalists here.
Chris, I think your work is very professional. I saw bicycle design post before I came upon your link. Sorry to see you did not win competition but your concept is fairly sound. I would like to critic one thing about the design of bicycles for everyday riding. This is current design and the follow up concept to new design. What I fail to see are improvements in handlebar concepts that improve body mechanics and ergonomic efficiency. Attaching an improved handlebar concept to your design may have won you the competition.
In brief, I have a patent pending handlebar concept for an upright posture and variable hand positions. It would be exciting to see someone of your talent put this bar onto a concept bike. If you want I’ll send you a picture.
As of present I have prototypes on the street in Minneapolis and St Paul Minnesota. I call this repurposing. More if you are interested.
