(Bill O'Malley IPMS/USA 2015-11-23)"Kimble's book is generously illustrated with his drawings, of course, but he also tells the stories behind the drawings, how he came to be contracted to do them, and the research he did to be able to make them as accurate as possible. If you're an automotive nerd like I am, this is great stuff." (Ol' Skool Rodz 2015-11-30)"Trust us, you'll savor this feast." (Hemmings Classic Car 2016-01-07)

Awesome Techiniques & Stories behind the Art of David Kimble's By Darlene Cruz What a great book, like the jacket cover said, "Techniques & Stories behind the art." Art illustrations drawings superbly depicted, beautiful. Wow the color, the graphic so mind blogging. You weren't kidding that David Kimble vision was so expressive in his illustration, anatomy and physiology of machinery jumped at you page after page. Motor sports community will absolutely enjoy this book, introduction to David Kimble's life and reasons why his life's work became what you see in this cutaway book. He breaks it down to understand his work, sketched by eye; however he stated, "eyeballing is not the way to go when it comes to cutaway where internal components have to fit correctly within the car's body. Yes, I would think so, intricate mapping, plotted geometrically, or traced from a photograph, first done by hand starts with a line drawing. Horrifying 1960s illustration McLaren M8A, he called it horrifying I saw nothing wrong but whom am I judge I don't have an artistic quality in my vein. Now we see how he separate a car's exterior from its chassis, spot illustration of engine and transaxle, throttle bodies, using engineering drawings and painting, photocopy and vellum. Okay I got carried away there, anyway so much detailed information diecast model and photocopies. Color is important to bring out the illustration. Photographs of other vehicles that scream money duly noted here. Willie G. Davidson really liked his illustration of the Harley-Davidson Hydra-Glide but the deal fell through. What deal, you got to read the story for yourself, so entertaining. You believe a cutaway illustration of the starship Enterprise? Yep, he did it! I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of information, especially his FINAL THOUGHTS section. I received a free book that I had won through LibraryThing. Thank you, Darlene Cruz

With the advent of so much computer graphics power being available, this is becoming a truly lost art. The detail in a Kimble piece is almost more than you can take in at times, as it is so layered that it is tough to interpret, but that is the beauty of a piece of art showing a complex organism like an automobile ... and he puts it all in there. This book goes into his technique which tends to be counter-intuitive, as much of it is done "upside down" compared to most artists. If you have ever considered doing one of these, or have looked on it in wonder, or do illustration of your own, it will be of interest for you to see how one of the all-time masters of the artform creates his treasures. Great addition to any library that includes automotive subjects.
