This was originally required to be a 5 min B&W cross section. I managed to find time and dust off those old skills gained at college. Thanks

I really enjoy an interesting cut away such as this. I will make the suggestion that you add more shadow/highlight contrast on the flat areas of color (blue metal, orange cutaway metal). Taking this one step further can dramtaically increase the appearance.

Hi mgv, Thanks for taking time to post. I do agree that more time should be spent adding depth. Hopefully, I'll find time to return to this and work on it some more. Thanks for the crit. Nick

Great work! I can really appriciate the work that goes into this. It is the kind of work I do for my job except ours is even more bland black and white line art. While not glamorous, it pays the bills. ;)

Thanks Husker, Pays my bills too. Agree not that glamorous, but I always remind myself that I could be doing something worse!
