2d form bashing
Learn how to create convincing car illustration using library of pre-defined shapes and forms. Enjoy playing with real and abstract components while reaching professional level of presentation.
In this lesson you will be guided through the process of drawing the side view of vehicle. While this method is very easy to adopt, it is not limited to entry level audience and could be successfully used at any production environment.
Target audience: Entry level, beginners
Requirements: Basic knowledge of Photoshop or digital image editing.
Tools used: Photoshop CS5 and on, alternatively Affinity Photo, GIMP, Sketchbook.
