NUTHIN BUT MECH

NUTHIN BUT MECH

 

It all started…

…as a blog back around 2009-10 as a means of having a centralized location for high-quality robot-themed illustrations and designs by entertainment industry professionals. I had been fortunate enough, over the course of 20 years at the time, to have accumulated a robust network of incredibly talented friends and associates who all agreed to join up.

At Thom Tenery's suggestion, I ran the idea of a published version by Scott Robertson, founder of the publishing company Design Studio Press, and he agreed to start a limited book series.

After four amazing volumes, all of which feature hand-selected artists and designers, who agreed to produce original content and donate their proceeds to charity, producing these books has been an absolutely gratifying experience.

ABOUT

A collaborative effort from over 40 artists, this title will showcase various styles of mecha design that the artists create while they are not working on blockbuster movies, tv shows, and video games.

◼︎   A portion of the proceeds from the book is donated to Charity Water.

◼︎   Design Studio Press (out of print)

◼︎   Amazon

A bucket list moment when my childhood design hero, Joe Johnston, (15:23) gives the book a shout-out.
