Description
Start the course by meeting Helder Oliveira, who tells you about his professional experience as an illustrator. He also shows you his biggest artistic influences and explains basic concepts of fan art compositions.
Next, explore the characteristic features of different illustration styles and then start mapping out your project. Learn how to shape and define the theme of your fan art and create a mood board with references to give your project focus.
Next, create a series of hand-drawn or digital sketches and gradually develop your own fan art illustration style. Start by working with shapes and outlines, then add details and complementary features, and finally, create a color palette that reflects your artistic style.
Add the finishing touches on your project by adding light, shadows, lines, and contrast. Helder wraps up the course with some tips on how to make your work stand out and promote it on social media.
