Hey I’m Liam.
I am a desiger with over 15 years experience in the creative industries. Based in Liverpool, Manchester, London, Göteborg. I created Robots V Dinosaurs in 2010 in order to push my boundaries when it comes to technical and cross-section illustrations.

About RVD
From a young age I have been interested in mechanical design and engineering. I have a keen eye for function and with over a decade spent in the automotive sector I have a very good grasp of how things work, always trying to apply this thought pr to every project I do, both real and fictional.
No generative AI is used in any of my work, I much prefer to do the exploration myself and enjoy the processes involved with those more traditional workflows.

Inspiration
When I was around seven years old I was introduced to Stephen Biesty’s cross-sections castle book. This started a lifetime fascination with cutaway illustrations. I used to save up Birthday and Christmas money and these were always my go-to presents. I was fascinated by how things work, especially the aircraft books. As I got older and decided to pursue design as a career myself, it was always technical art and mechanical design that guided and inspired me.
After learning my trade in London, working in publishing with some very reputable design teams at WIRED, VOgue and GQ, I finally found my way to automotive. I worked in the Volvo Group Design team before working on the agency side leading to over 10 years with cutting edge automotive practices and design tools.
Incredible Cross-Sections
In 2024 I decided it was time to start focusing on the stories I wanted to tell and the design that spoke to me most. I transitioned from in-house to full time freelance. Between 2024-2025 I was thrilled to have the opportunity to work on Marvel Studios: Incredible Cross-Sections. Working on the brand that had inspired me almost 30 years earlier, it was a great honor to work with a highly skilled team. I now work full time as a freelance digital designer, splitting my time between engineering, automotive, scifi and other exciting and engaging projects.
