HOW TO MAKE ILLUSTRATIONS: KAWAII PANDA II

....So today I've just finished editing a new time lapse video for my new kawaii panda illustration II. This article feature the basic steps on how to create illustrations for digital work.

Illustrations can be of different medium. Digital illustration is one. Using Adobe Illustrator, a laptop, and a graphic tablet, creating clip arts can be as easy as a multiplication table.

STEPS ON HOW TO CREATE AN ILLUSTRATION

#1 CREATE A LINE ART

Using Adobe Illustrator, I drew a lineart. I basically used the brush tool for this particular drawing step. Adobe Illustrator has a unique way of making lineart easier compare to Adobe Photoshop.

#2 SET UP THE BASE COLORS

Base colors are the first to consider when coloring a lineart. Since I'm making a cute panda clipart, setting up base colors would be a piece of apple cake. I don't know why I just wrote that...maybe I just wanted say it. Oh well.

#3 CREATE SHADOWS

Then I guess the final and last step is applying the shadows for the base colors. I don't really use a basic black color for the shadow and then adjust the transparency like others do...because I've tried doing that but the result wasn't that satisfying for me...so I basically just use a matching shaded version of each base color that I used to create the shadows.

Authors Note

I've been creating a lot of clip arts lately so I can sell them online for a cheaper price and doing a lot of cartoon illustration from valued clients for only $8 per subject...Still, I've managed to budget my time and create clip arts and videos for my youtube channel.
