Illustrator classwork!

First of all, a silhouette of sorts of Little Red Riding hood, done entirely in triangles... which was totally challenging, seeing as triangles are menacing and Little Red isn't... or at least not typically. :P

And then an abstract self portrait thing that I am not very fond of, but whatever, still learniiiing.



Revised Icons!

All 30 of em. Fun stuff! :)

Eyes!

Here are the eyes I did in Illustrator. Simple design, then an additive and subtractive design.

Silhouette!




Yay, silhouette! It's amazing what noodling around in Illustrator can do. I found one simple trick that nobody told me about the bezier curves and anchor points, and it made my life about 1 million times better.

I plan to post my sketched eye at the same time as the other 3 assigned eyes for this week. That's for tomorrow!

BOATS!

Hey there! We're learning illustrator in class, so I'm gonna go ahead and upload this in-class exercise. Yay boats! They match my blog theme. :D


Bezier curve, you are going to be the death of me. I like to think that rather than waves, my boats are sailing on an ocean of blue Peeps marshmallows. Yes.

Self Portrait icons!

In class we're doing a really nifty self portrait kind of project, and for it we had to design 25 different icons representing personality words, favorite things, and just in general things that represent ours.

So here are mine!


And here is me.


Good night morning!

Yay sketches!

Just felt like sharing a couple of my more successful sketches from my playtime sketchbook this week. :)


Ginny Weasley being super awesome!


The Marauders (James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew) as little kids. Guuuurl, best not be touchin' Lupin's chocolate.

These were both requests. If anyone has anything they'd like to see, ask! Who knows-- I may give it a shot!
