corstar Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Your style is brilliant. Kind of what' I'd like mine to be.. What is your process like? all digital or some pencil/scanning etc? Quote
Matthew Slater Posted May 1, 2019 Author Posted May 1, 2019 Hi. I drew a very rough initial fountain pen sketch in a sketchbook, photographed it on the iPad and imported the photo into Designer. I then used this sketch as a template for creating groups and layers for all the parts. I always try and group/layer everything so that I can easily move or hide elements. The process is more fiddly on the iPad than working in Illustrator on a Mac with a drawing tablet but the results were well worth the time and effort. I currently find Procreate a better app for sketching with than using the pixel mode in Designer, is is just more efficient. However, I need to explore it more. It is just a matter of sitting down and playing, or finding a challenge to get excited about. Quote
