vehicle designs have been a lot of fun
to put together and came about from
my love of magic and technology.
I don’t have a lot of work-in-
progress shots, but still have one
sheet of sketches that shows how
they started [see page 61]. I always
carry a sketchbook and quite a lot of
my work starts there. I do a lot of
writing for my own projects as well
and always try to start with a little bit
of prose or background details when
starting pieces. This foundation
usually dictates the direction for a lot
of my personal work.
From the moment I’m done with
writing I’ll usually start to thumbnail
things out, either in my head or in
my sketchbook, turning the shapes
and the mood over in my head until
I have what I desire. This is the
moment when I’ll translate things to
my computer and start blocking out
the paintings in Photoshop.”ALEX KONSTAD
