NoFuns Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Tutorial Link Here Earlier this week, Stevepole made a great piece by following a tutorial. Everyone loved it, and I think people would be amazed at how easy it is to make something that looks great by using Illustrator. It can produce amazing things from 100% scratch ( which i like :) ) It's very easy to follow, and requires little to no drawing-by-hand. Here's mine :D The example epitome of greatness looks like this: This tutorial is great. It shows you step-by-step how to make your own scatter brush. ( No need to give credit to anyone but yourself :) ) Everything that you make on Illustrator is purely your own work. Give it a try everyone. Makes a great background for the Christmas season :P Draw what you see, not what you think-you-see. --Carl Purcell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Uh... It would help if the link was there. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoFuns Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 That ones good to do Steve. It introduces custom brushes, and some pretty simple 3d shading. I never really learned how to do that before. I was just using Illy as a detailed pen tool :rolleyes: After i saw yours, i looked into what else i could be doing. its a very good tut Draw what you see, not what you think-you-see. --Carl Purcell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoFuns Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 I have no experience with any software but Adobe.I was lucky enough to have a brother who could get it at student rates and parents willing to pay half :D I'm sure you could do it, but you'd have to know that software very well to be able to select tools similar to the ones in Illustrator.So.. maybe :unsure: Draw what you see, not what you think-you-see. --Carl Purcell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you knew what you were doing I'm fairly sure you could. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.

stevepole Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Not bad, you need to make your outer layer of the bulb lighter though. Right now you can hardly tell a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
