For those who don't know about Scott Robertson, he's a vehicle concept artist for the entertainment industry who's been an instructor at Art Center in Pasadena and Gnomon School of VFX in Hollywood. He's produced countless DVD training video's on the topic of automotive design for Gnomon Workshops aswell as his own imprint.

I've read the reviews and critiques of Scott Robertson's other books and would have to agree with allot of them. This book however seems to have addressed those comments and in my opinion is the best of his releases. It's broken up to cover different types of designs from military vehicles to future racing cars. It includes everything from large full color 3d renderings to greyscale photoshop work, to early concept sketches and iterations of the conceptual process of his vehicular designs. Most of the book is full color, large images taking up the majority of the page or a double page spread. Some of the greyscale concepts might be 2 or 3 to 6 up on a page depending.

Personally, I love cars and vehicle concept art, I find this book to be a continual source of continuing inspiration. After many hours of studying this book, elements of the different vehicles depicted through out this book have begun to seep into my own work. When I'm hung up on a design, I pull out this book to help jumpstart my own imagination or to simply help me find other alternatives to what I'm trying to accomplish.

It's probably one of the few books I never get tired of looking through and it spends more time on my desk or in my bag then on the bookshelf. If your into vehicle designs and concepts this is defiantly something I'd think you'd want to have handy to get the creative juices flowing... seriously, I just can't express amazing I find this book to be.

I consider myself a passable draftsman and while I'm still improving my rendering skills, I feel as though my work is good enough to pass in everyday situations. Scott Robertson makes me feel like I never got any better at drawing past kindergarten-level crayon house drawings. His work is phenomenal and DRIVE is a great catalog of some of his obsessively artistic ability.

If you follow him on YouTube, you can see him preparing for both DRIVE and LIFT OFF as well as a number of other books in his Free Tutorial Fridays. To see the process and then to see the final result in each case is pretty incredible. He makes drawing and rendering look easy to the maximum degree and neither are.

Very high quality book with equally high quality renderings of some fantastical vehicles. Even if you aren't in to vehicles (I am in to space ships) this book is such a pleasure to spark your own imagination. I wish they had more defined sections like civilian vehicles and then military. The military vehicles could have been expanded upon more IMO. Great buy if you love imaginative sic-fi works.

If you like the idea of future racers, large engines and superb designs, this book is for you. I got this book as inspiration for a racing game I am working on and it does not disappoint, the art is stunning, well designed and exciting.

All in all, a nice book to have in your book shell. The quality and interest in the content/designs is not even through the book. Also some designs, after a while, tends to look very similar. I think is good to have it for inspiration, and/or reference, but i have mixed feelings about this book...i can't avoid the feeling that there is a good 25% of the content that is just for filling the volume. Maybe for $15 i wouldnt complain, but for this range price (and less) i've got a lot more polished books with excellent content from start to finish (see my other reviews to know about them if you are curious).
But well Scott Robertson is a master of his craft, and he gives you a lot of insights about his procedures that can be very usefull and that are great for demystify concept design . I think he is very honest about that, and he tries to help the aspiring designer to realize how things work from ideation sketches to polisged renderings.

Good illustrations. If you are into cars and customization, this could be a good source for ideas.

If you really want to see what this book looks like, watch the video review by Parka. He opens the book and flips through it. That video sold me on the book instantly. I love mech and this book satisfied me.

I got this book for my Husband for Christmas. While everyone else was opening gifts his eyes were glued to this book. He really likes this book.
