Rafahu - art director, illustrator and animator who has worked for brands such as Nike, Penguin Random House or José Cuervo, among others - will teach you advanced Illustrator techniques. You will learn to generate advanced brushes with Illustrator, design vector textures, exploit the 3D object and carry out light studies for your illustrations.
All with the objective to maximize the possibilities of the software and demonstrate that you can create amazing illustrations with simple vectors.
Description
You will begin by getting to know Rafahu's work and artistic influences such as comics, horror literature or B-series films.
Next, you will discover the advanced tools of Illustrator such as brushes that emulate ink or engraving (and that can save you a lot of time when making a complex illustration) or how to combine brushes with the blend object.
You will create the first sketches of your mecha-kaiju (a fantastic creature half monster half robot) using 3D objects, brushes and blends.
Later you will learn to master lighting and color making good use of the gradient, generating custom textures and creating a fictitious lighting set to illuminate the scene.
At this point, it will be time to add volume, texture and special effects to your mecha-kaiju.
Finally, you will add some final details with Photoshop and you will have a terrifying mecha-kaiju ready to fight.
