Bike Sketches

Hello, its been a while.

Here're some drawings of The Randor Par Excellence "Cruisin' USA" Beach Cruiser.


I was attempting a rust texture that turned stubbly.

Spokes are tricky to draw.

    Great drawings Ron. Good to see your art again. I could build this bike in 3d based on these drawings. Great detail and style. I like the integration of the date around your spokes on the third one.

    TAG in May sounds great, Rick, I'm looking forward to it.

    I'll post some 3D stuff I did sometime, Ellis.

    what's your 3d program? Or are you talking sculpy? How old is that bike?

    I'm thinking about the ultimate urban bike. I want it light but not 10 speed light and not mountain bike heavy and chopped off.

    Thompson! These bike drawings have blown away my (already lofty) expectations--these are great!! I love 'em!!

    The compositions are so unexpected. Love them as a sequence...visually coming to terms with "bike-ness."

    Incredible!

    (And you tried to sneak them in on a Friday...for shame!)

    Keep 'em coming!!

    Most of my 3D stuff's in SolidWorks.

    Yup, an evasive Friday afternoon news release.

    Bike was purchased used around 1989-90 for excursions out from the downtown loft.

    Downtown Loft! Sounds cool. Where at in Seattle?

    Never mind. Downtown covers it.

    I think Ron is referring to the loft in downtown...San Diego??

    California Bikes This cruiser also has a forward pedaling desigen, meaning the pedals are shifted four inches forward to allow for better leg extension and more open and comfortable seating position.

    I approved the semi spam post. I thought it was interesting a subject matter expert found Ron's post via surf means.

    Image searching "randor par excellence" gets these drawings as #6 to #8. Is this a perk of web logging in the sphere of mighty G?

    Amazing. It just fills up with TAG offerings. And then goes on to really fill up with Davis Chino drawings.
