The Complete Technical Illustrator w/Bi Subscription Card

The Complete Technical Illustrator was developed to present a comprehensive overview of the art of technical illustration using today's most popular software packages-including Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, AutoCAD, and 3D Studio Max. Perfect for everyone from students just learning to professional technical illustrators, this new text highlights the strategies and procedures that will help your students apply knowledge about the geometry, assemblies, materials, and processes needed to accurately communicate technical information. A special CD-ROM, included with every new edition of this text, features a productivity tool called AxonHelper. Developed by Jon Duff, AxonHelper is a productivity application that's used to determine axonometric information. This includes scales, angles, ellipses, shearing data, and X Y Z viewpoint positions for over 400 axonometric views. The AxonHelper also presents examples of the most popular illustration tools, examples of textures and materials from Greg Maxson's studio, and a gallery of professional illustrations.
