Beautiful hand-drawn Honda ad by the illustrator PES. Wow! From Adweek:
Conceptually, “Paper” is about as stripped down as you can get—every complex vehicle, after all, starts with a few sketches on paper. And the details pay off the lofty concept, as we move from the sepia-toned early scenes to modern graph paper by the end. The tagline is, “”You never know where a dream will lead you.”
Also: a Making Of video, also by PES:
