    Hello...

    It seems to me that the world has not yet gotten (bad word) over its obsession with images generated by a computer...

    Thing is - any drawing or illustration is a mechanism that must communicate the inherent idea - and in this day and age it must do so very quickly...

    Basic principles apply - and they remain varied from the client presentation drawing to the 'cosmic napkin' among friends - to the engineering and spec. drawings for the tradesman and engineer - one size does NOT fit all...

    I want to believe that basic trades - basic Bauhaus design principles and real drafting skills still apply - hidden lines - fade - line weight and the rest...

    I am sick of people shoving a CAD drawing in front of me with all the damned layers turned on...

    YUP...

    SH.
