This document is a design portfolio belonging to Alex Brown Jr. that showcases various drawings and sketches he has created. It includes pencil drawings of characters like Betty Boop as well as vehicles. It also shows 3D models and engineering drawings Alex created for school projects involving parts like a motorcycle head gasket, link assembly, and tractor piston. The portfolio demonstrates Alex's skills in techniques like perspective, shading, modeling in Autodesk Inventor, and rendering concepts for products.

DESIGN PORTFOLIO

2. DRAWING AND SKETCHES

3. The Infamous Betty Boop
The emphasis of this
illustration was old –
School styling. I had
created this pencil
drawing from an idea
that a friend of mine
thought of.
Techniques Used:
•3 point perspective
•Shading
•Minimal Color

4. ILLEST Lexus GS 350
Visual rendering of a
lightly modified Lexus
GS 350.
Techniques used:
Shading with pencil,
Proportion,
One-point/Two-point
perspective.

5. Perspective
Series one of my still life
drawn in 3-point
perspective.

6. Perspective and Shading
Series two of my still life
showcasing light and
shadows.

7. Form and Perspective
Series three of my still
life showcasing
perspective and lines
displaying the direction
of shape and form.

8. De Chirico Rendering
Illustrated rendering
showcasing my hand
drawing skills and use of
color.

9. Alex’s Dream
Visual interpretation of
a dream I am shooting
for in my future.
The illustration
showcases my hand
drawing skills,
Meticulous detail, and
use of perspective and
shading.

10. First Baptist Church Coffee Shop Logo
The official logo of our
Youth and Young adult
ministry know as “The
Coffee Shop.”
The design concept was
based on a vision of one
of the founding members
of the ministry.

11. CustomAfter-market Concept
Quick visual rendering
of an aftermarket
concept for the 2005
Honda Civic Si.
Details Include:
• After market rear
spoiler
• Wider fenders and body
styling
• Wider wheels and tires
• Adjustable suspension
setup

12. QuickDetailed Sketch
This sketch was created
while on a lunch break at
work. I had been
building my confidence
with sketching in pen.

13. QuickPen Sketch
Sitting in class one day
and sketching what was
in my head at the time.

14. EDUCATIONAL PROJECTS

15. Motorcycle Head Gasket
The object of this project
was to learn how to cut
the time in half to design
this motorcycle head
gasket.
Since both sides of the
head gasket are equal in
measurement and
design, it is easier to
design one side and
mirror the direct
opposite of that side.

16. Detail Drawing
Reproduction of a detail
drawing used for
practice in Auto-CAD.

17. LinkAssembly and Parts
Exploded view of a link
assembly with parts list.
This link assembly was
created in Autodesk
Inventor (3D based
software).
Creating parts in 3D
allow the full visual
effect of the parts and
how they work together.

18. Spindle
3D view and detailed
section view.
Autodesk Inventor was
used to create this part
to be used as a visual
prototype.

19. TractorPiston
Final project for my
Inventor class.
The objective was to
create a top, front, and
section view along with
a 3D full view of the
piston. All that was
provided to create this
piston were the
dimensions.

20. ’32 Ford Special
Practicing with the use
of Auto-CAD’s circle, arc
and array command to
render this 1932 Ford
Special.

21. Part one of three Assembly Drawings
Detail views of the front
and sides of this mold
assembly.

22. Part two of three assembly drawings
Detail views of the rear
and sides of this mold
assembly.

23. Part three of three assembly drawings
Mold assembly all put
together and parts
labeled.

24. Flash Drive Concept
First set of concept
drawings for a Kingston
Data Traveler flash
drive.
The objective of this
project was to redesign a
product with given
functions, materials, and
changes that our teacher
wanted us to
incorporate.

25. Flash Drive Concept Two
Second set of concept
drawings for a Kingston
Data Traveler flash
drive.
These concept drawings
allowed me to detail
function, usability and
style.
