With every vehicle launched, a new series of BMW designers rise and leave a mark in BMW’s car design history. Since over the last tens of years there were numerous designers, we will break down the impressive and long list of “automobile artists” giving you a series of short episodes.
Our first episode brought you the designers of the new BMW 5 Series, Vision Concept and the new X1. Today, we’re looking at another page in BMW’s history and learn more about the designers of the recent Z4, 7 Series and 5 Series GT.
In the next few weeks, we’ll complete our series with some of the old school designers, many of them still with BMW.

The above illustration shows the combined use of the original line art and a gradient overlay of the finished cutaway car illustration. Because the whole of the line art is on one layer, the mechanics on another layer and the body on the top layer in Photoshop, this allows for different emphasis to be given to whatever parts the client wants to show.

The above series of illustrations show the line art in full, various color ways of the same illustration, and the car body as illustrated without ghosting. Although it takes a longer time to paint everything fully, you eventually have multiple layers in Photoshop that you can adjust in various ways.
