Technical Illustrations and Cutaway Drawings

By Paul Crowe

Honda cutaway drawingIf you’re like me, you like to see how things work, what’s connected to what, what goes where, it all started when I was little and took apart any dead alarm clocks I found plus a few that were still showing signs of life. I never stopped wanting to see how things worked, but sometimes you can’t take it apart (“Hey Buddy, what do you think you’re doin?”) so the next best thing is a cutaway drawing.

Kevin Hulsey is one of those guys that makes the illustrations showing the inner workings of things we don’t always get to see. His site shows a lot of his work plus a really neat explanation of the process from making line drawings and layouts to the final steps of turning them into finished illustrations. Quite a bit of computer work involved plus lots of skill, patience and talent.

I mentioned tech illustrations before and another illustrator, Jim Hatch. These guys make it a lot easier to peek under the covers. Cool.
