Most of the sketches were done on vellum, some on a Bainbrige illustration board.
Hommage a Sam Lapointe (In memory of Sam Lapointe) - Drawing in memory of my mentor Sam Y. Anselme Lapointe.
Sam liked good aerodynamics and sleek design.

Bio Sea-Doo - Gouache rendering circa 1991
At that time, my vision of a Sea-Doo was a Bio machine. Note the adjustable steering mechanism for stand-up riding.

F1 twin track concept sketch 1995 - Inspired by F1 cars, pod push pod architecture
TNT revival - Before leaving to work on Can-Am Spyder Roadster I drew these sleds (TNT revival: for track and trail)
1993 forward driving position sled - This drawing was done from the comments of a mechanics that was asking to position the driver forward. This might have influence partially the REV platform architecture.
SIR, for Sit in roadster.
Sketches proposal for a side by side that was later put in production as the Summum sled. My version was not accepted because it was too low and a bit too long for crossing bumps. 1997

V8 snowmobile... 1995 - This is kind of a joke relative to
power in a sled and nostalgia for the machine age...

Thank you Rob, I agree! Those drawings were done for BRP in 2002. Since that the project is gone public, (Search BRP Embrio on google) I can show the concept sketches, but the rights belong to BRP .
Thank you Eric, good luck and all the best for this journey in design wonderland!
Cool, OK, I understand, nothing beats the smell of a Chartpak marker. Thank you very much Joe, I'll try to post more of them! Like your work.
very nice, i will start my journey towards a design career this fall, and have a particular interest in sleds. i love to see snowmobile drawings!
I graduated in 94 and know all about that technique. Looks great!! Post more 90's stuff if you get a chance. I would love to see it.

A concept ahead of it's time. The kawi X2 was out at this time (fixed bars). The Yamaha Waveblaster was not out yet. The SeaDoo HX was not out either. Interesting blend of standup and runabout. Did this concept lay the foundation for the last generation XP with the 3 modes?
hot old school render!
awesome!!
Thank you Jeff and Michael, I was at Bombardier Canadair (Aircraft division) at the time I did this rendering, I probably showed it to my friends at Sea-Doo, but I kept it in my private files for years Martin
