Set your project, references and design direction.
Week 2: Explore ideas
Generate a wide range of concepts and forms.
Week 3: Refine Direction
Narrow down and strengthen your best ideas.
Week 4: Build Your Design Language
Translate references into your own design language
Week 5: Expand Into 3/4 Views
Bring your ideas into perspective and form
Week 6: Develop a Cohesive Design
Build structure, consistency and clarity
Week 7: Refine & Strengthen
Improve proportion, surfaces and communication
Week 8: Present Your Concept
Deliver a clear, intentional design
Learn from real student feedback.
Phase 2: Concept Development includes recorded student critique sessions from previous live cohorts.
​​
You'll see:
​
-
Real student mistakes​
-
Real sketch-over corrections
-
Real questions and answers
-
Real improvement examples

Sketching Bootcamp
Build professional transportation design sketching skills through an 8-week step-by-step system.
$199
Learn from a professional car designer
The biggest challenge for most students isn't sketching.
It's knowing what to sketch.
Phase 2 teaches the design process behind successful transportation concepts.
You'll learn how to define a vision, identify your target user, build meaningful inspiration boards and transform references into original ideas that feel intentional rather than random.
By the end of the program you'll have a complete concept developed through a repeatable process you can use again and again.
Don't start with
the sketch.
Start with the vision.
Industry experience:
Real progress from real students.
See how students learn to think and sketch like a designer.

Who this bootcamp is for?
This bootcamp is for you if:
-
You can sketch, but don't know how to develop your own concepts
-
You struggle to move beyond copying existing vehicles
-
You feel lost when starting a new design project
-
You want to learn how professional designers generate and refine ideas
-
You want a repeatable process you can use on future portfolio projects
This bootcamp rewards consistency and effort more than raw drawing ability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to complete Phase 1 first? Phase 2 is designed for students who already understand basic vehicle sketching and perspective. If you're still developing those fundamentals, I recommend starting with Phase 1: Sketching Bootcamp before moving into concept development.
What if I don't have any original ideas? That's exactly what this course is designed to solve. You'll learn how to define a vision, build inspiration boards, identify a target user and develop concepts through a structured process rather than relying on random creativity.
Will I create a complete concept by the end? Yes. Throughout the 8-week program you'll develop an original transportation design concept from initial vision and inspiration through refinement and final presentation.
How is this different from Phase 1? Phase 1 focuses on sketching fundamentals such as proportion, perspective and form. Phase 2 focuses on concept development, learning how to generate ideas, build a design direction and create original transportation concepts.
How long does the course take? The program is structured over 8 weeks but it is completely self-paced. You can move through the material on your own schedule and revisit lessons whenver needed.
Do I get lifetime access? Yes. Once enrolled, you'll receive lifetime access to all course content, future updates and lesson materials.
What comes after Phase 2? Phase 3 focuses on building a professional project using the concepts and design process developed in Phase 2. Together, the three phases create a complete pathway from sketching fundamentals to portfolio-ready transportation design work.
Your design journey doesn't stop here.
The Sketching Bootcamp builds the foundation every transportation designer needs.
But sketching is only the first step.
​
As your skills improve, you'll continue into advanced design development and portfolio creation through the Lumen pathway.
