Flotspotting: Michael Jelinek's Mead-esque Transportation Designs

By Rain Noe - August 5, 2011

in Flotspotting

We had the pleasure of meeting designer extraordinaire Michael Jelinek at the last Autodesk University, where he'd come a long way from home—the Czech Republic—to demonstrate his formidable rendering skills, using techniques he'd honed doing projects for clients like Nike and Volkswagen. Among other things, Jelinek—who's served as a senior design consultant for Alias software—has a knack for cranking out imaginative vehicles that combine futuristic flair with old-school Syd-Mead-esque style.

The photos are best viewed larger than we can display them here, so click on over to Jelinek's book on Coroflot.

The second image is the cover shot on Sketchbook Designer. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a tutorial on creating something like that. Fan-effing-tastic.

Wild stuff

That first one looks like it would keep your legs nice and warm in the winter. And in the summer.
