Thisarticle will give you a quick glimpse into the logic and techniques of vectorartwork, but you’ll need to open Illustrator and do some experimenting ifyou really want to learn how to work with vectors. For years, I’ve taughtstudents who are migrating from bitmap illustration how to use vectors. Lastly, learn how to save your artwork correctly, understand the different formats and settings that you need for each type of format.Using vector graphics can be one of the most exciting, creative, anddistinctive ways to create digital artwork. In the final unit, learn how to push your vector illustrations a step further by adding other elements and final details. Begin with the Pen tool and learn Daniele’s linework techniques, and use hatching on the areas you require.Īpply and experiment with your base color, play around with color ideas, and add volume to your illustration with Daniele’s shading and lighting techniques. Next, scan your image and open Illustrator to start creating your vector illustration. Create a rough drawing and then pick out the shapes you want using a lightbox and add more detail. Map out your ideas with thumbnail sketches and decide on the final composition with Daniele’s guidance.
Look for drawing references and explore themes to create a mood board to use as inspiration for your project. Go through Illustrator’s interface and see Daniele’s time-saving hacks, “hatching ideas”, and other techniques he uses.
He then gives a brief run-through of what you’ll learn in the course. Daniele starts the course by telling you about how he became an illustrator and showing you the books and artists that have influenced him along the way.
