Amazing !! I know Bamber's cartoons, and am really surprised of his multi-talent.
Cartoonists are usually known for their quick scribbly work, catching one or two important features to
catch the personality/ character of what they are portraying.
The cutaway artist, sitting down to a labour of detail attention to capture exactly what is to be seen.
Or should I just think an artist is an artist is an.....

Two examples of airbrush painting of gearboxes - a bit messy, although the artwork itself is normally carefully masked, only the part being worked on exposed to the possibility of disaster.

I think that is every bit as astonishing as a Canaletto ( and for me there is no greater artist than him )

Ah ha! I wonder who had them originaly! The first is a chromacopy, now no longer available due to ink-jet printers and computers, but they were a high-quality print, and although some colours were slightly out they were very light-fast, so very little fading over time.
The second is mine, a print of the working drawing of the Neil Corner Ferrari Dino V12 that I posted in colour on about page 4 of this thread. I hope you didn't pay too much Gregor.

Now my true favorite: Novis!
I know about the famous cutaway drawing of the engine by CO LaTourette.
I know Autocar or another magazine of that year had one of the 1964 Ferguson P104.
But is that it?
No, I hope....

Henri, Jim Allington did a Novi-Ferguson, but I'm not sure if it was in '64, and it probably only appeared in Road & Track. I remember he was agonizing over the sizes of the front v rear wheels and tyres, until I plucked up the courage to say that, surely, they would be the same. He slapped his forehead and drew them the same - whether that was correct or not I don't know, but it looked OK! In those days the amount of photographic reference varied, depending on what David Phipps - invariably - could get for him.

Macoran, you have fixed that brilliantly. It would have taken me hours in photoshop to do that.
I've not seen any in my searches. The closest is the later experimental roadster. http://home.exetel.c...Images/8c45.jpg but that has copyright obscuring it in big letters.

Interesting, but my true passion is the Alfa Romeo 2900B. Are there any cutaways in existence of the 1938 Alfa Romeo 2900B Mille Miglia, or of any of the other less exalted 2900B variations? (I guess that includes the type35 racer. I've seen at least one Bimotore drawing here after three nights of reading all the posts.) I know its not a post war racer, but if anyone would know of such .... I think they're probably here.

It was a 2 page spread in #50, and Ben gave me an ~ 11x17 of it that I have somewhere. Rens gave up on his generous work on Alfa history sometime after Ben passed.

As to the Bellu brothers.
Posted 19 June 2009 - 15:15
Ovfi - many thanks, I haven't seen that for years! A nice cutaway of a terrific-looking car, and I stippled the tyres!
Marc - archivist and librarian extraordinary. I would have written 'extraordinary' in French to add a bit of class, but wasn't sure of the spelling! My English spelling is bad enough...
