Illustration Friday - STOMP

The task was to make an illustration in response to the word stomp. 
  • Recently I have been drawing long exaggerated arms, so I thought about how this idea could work as a big leg instead...
  • I used some triangles to try and help demonstrate the stomping motion.



Final Sketch...

  • After completing the decks for change brief - I wanted to create the final outline from a pencil sketch because it has a nice line quality.
  • I scanned in the pencil sketch and darkened it all, I also removed any white so it was only the outline on a transparent background.
  • I wanted too mimic the colour blend screen print effect but produce it digitally.
  • I took the one of the colour blend backgrounds from the Roald Dahl and re used it for the colour behind the outline.
  • I did this by colouring in pink and blue sections of the character normally with paint brush tool. And then using different overlay effects to make the texture appear where I had layed colour down.
  • Im really pleased with how managed to mimic the effect, it looks as though it has been screen printed. I will defo consider how illustrations can be constructed digitally and re-use images from other briefs/projects - especially in small briefs and quick tasks.
