Introducing contributor Nate Erickson

A few weeks back, Nate Erickson — colleague and crazy talented industrial designer at the product development firm where I work — kindly volunteered to do some Streetliner sketches for me. His love for cars and his professional abilities mean that Nate has an ability to think in shape that I can't even approach. What I was hoping for, and what he's constantly delivering, was that he'd bring some fresh aesthetic thinking to the Streetliner project. This sketch is one of many groovy renderings he's done lately.
