GOvectorZ 970 Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) This is what I'm working on now and thought I'd show a few progression shots along the way. This will be printed at poster size when finished. When i start a piece like this, I'll set out the main paths/objects first and use a base (starting point) gradient to get an overall feel for a piece as it looks like below. Next step in this case will be concentrating on the frame, adding the welds, braze-ons, etc and then tweak the colors/gradients to define it more. Will probably define the seat also at same time. I'll post that next ps: If you have any specific questions about any stage in the build of a certain element then feel free to ask HERE. Update: as you can see, still more shading to be done but making progress now. Last Update (19/01/15) i think now before completion. FINAL UPDATE (took a bit longer to get back to than i thought).. Anyway, i hope this shows what's possible using Illustrator Edited March 13, 2015 by GOvectorZ added final 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dragoon 121 Posted January 18, 2015 very nice, the spokes will have been fun i reckon, atleast those elements only have to be done once. great stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GOvectorZ 970 Posted January 20, 2015 very nice, the spokes will have been fun i reckon, atleast those elements only have to be done once. great stuff Hardest part of the spokes i think m8, is getting the colours just right. I spent more time adjusting the brush that was made for them. As for working out the amount/degrees of spokes, t'is an easy lil calculation And yes thankfully there is a few elements which can be reused which is always a plus. ps: added one last update before the completed piece is posted :'> pps: like yer new sig too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
