Those sketches are marker renderings with pencil highlights. You don't do those on napkins coz the napkins soak up the marker. That's why I'm horrified - these sketches look like they were actually used as presentation level... Although I will say that as long as it gets the point across, any sketch is a good sketch. I'd just like to see some killer sketches released as part of the presentation pack. #13, I agree with your comments re: Fiat’s that don’t suck.

That's AWFUL! Not withstanding the overwrought detailing and 2F2F wing, the entire design is a pastiche of cliches. And what happened to Fiat's designers? Those are considered professional-level sketches to be distributed to media as background material for the concept? My apologies for ranting, but after slaving over sketches for presentations, I find it insulting that Fiat would release drivel like that as presentation material to accompany that concept. On the other hand, if its all meant as a joke... Sweet mother of god! That’s AWFUL! Not withstanding the overwrought detailing and 2F2F wing, the entire design is a pastiche of cliches.
