Just randomly clicking through at the 42 min mark he mentions how car designers dont get credited for their ideas.

Interesting little tidbits about Rolls Royce design...lovely location. Unfortunately they've split up the videos into little segments and the camerawork is shakey.

"He joined Rolls-Royce and Bentley, Crewe, as as Stylist, in 1971, becoming Chief Stylist and head of Department in 1984. His career at Crewe spanned 30 years. Apart from all Crewe studio projects, he has worked with various consultants and design houses, on all manner of projects, including special limited production orders, ranging from Head of State limousines, to two-seater sports cars."

Graham wrote a book about his career, mentioned a few times on Fchat in the Brunei car collection threads. Has anyone read it? If so maybe time to do a review in the book collectors thread.

On Woodward, no less - buddies sometimes send over pics from a cool cruise-in he hosts - nice balanced diet w/all the food groups represented!

Looks like so many of the them

 

The Jim we both know that attended ACCED for only 1 or 2 semesters?

 

Yup, that's the one.
Some viewers questioned Jim as to the program he used, and it wasn't AI generated. This was Jim's response:"This was done in Rhino 8 by yours truly and then tweaked with Photoshop to clean up the image floor, then resized and cropped for the FB cover picture size and aspect ratio."

 

So this one was created by AI.

Evidently these were generated using Sid Mead as part of the prompt. Some are more successful than others IMO. Don't know what Mr. Mead would have to say about this.
