Illustrator Tutorial – Patterns and Shapes
May 19th
This is the result of following the tutorial exactly
Heres the result of another quick tutorial, I’m trying to stick to video tutorials so I can watch everything step by step. This one is for making shapes using patterns. Cool looking results I think and its about a 7 minute long video. Try it out and come up with something cool I just did a quick easy robot face to start it off.
quick robo face, it took like 2 minutes to do after watching the video
The potential is pretty cool, I’m gonna mess with using the pathfinder tool and see if that helps with the curves.

Refresher course

Vector poster by Rydeen
I’ve been really drawn to vector illustration and characters, they can be anything to fresh and cartoony which I love (as I type this I just realized I want to make a vector powerpuff girl.) That is of course not all they can be, as I’ve been reading Logo Design Love (yep I finally got my copy) it reminded me how much fun illustrator was.
this is the last real thing I did in illustrator, know who this is?
Problem is, I haven’t really used illustrator since I took a class in it about a year and change ago. So on that note, I’ve been finding some basic tutorials as refresher, first one was very quick and pretty informative, I had no clue what the path finder tool was before I did this tutorial by Chris Spooner. Check out the results and to find out who it is in the picture hit the jump.

This took about 5 minutes to do and it goes over a quite a few tricks and tools that I didn’t know about. Check it out here at blog.spoongraphics. Have any other tutorials or you’re on the same track? Hit up the comments section and let me know. More >

I’ve had this picture drawn by KaNO for a few years now . I thought of it last night and I wanted to share it with everyone but not as the pic of the day because I wanted to show more of kaNO’s art. A New York designer and illustrator this picture started my love of his style and I already have my eye on a few pieces of work that I want including his book and limited edition wallet. Here are a few other things hes done. More >
