Adobe Illustrator challenge

[Sooz]

Going to be doing some fun stuff in my Graphic Design course.
Illustration is the subject i'm doing.
I'm going to be showing you some of the stuff i've actually done.

To be honest before this course i didn't know how to actually draw online.
My drawings were shithouse. They still aren't that flash.

But i've learned how to use the pen tool.

But i struggle with cropping stuff as in drawing around the outlines of the object.
I'm pretty shit at that.

Those of you who have done some graphic design work show us your skills.

Cool Idea.
I use Illustrator in my profession on a day to day basis.
Most of the time I'm restoring crappy low-rez images and logos, and making them nice and clean. Every once in a while I get to be creative when a client comes forward with something. I'll see about uploading some of my samples later on.

The trick to using the Pen Tool is to use as few control points as possible.

i used to have to do some photo editing for work (i still do, but it's become pretty rare). we're cheap though, so i've only ever used GIMP.

I cannot disclose my exact role on this project. But I was on the design team that did Illustrator work on this Jaguar to make this promotion possible.

I like your sketches especially the leaf of the apple that's cool : )

I don't have much experience using Adobe illustrator.

I know some basic Photoshop skills when I was in some Graphic design classes when I was in various Art & Design classes whilst I was doing my BFA course but I overall did not enjoy Graphic design I'm more of a Fine Arts artist as in I enjoy just drawing, sketching with pencils & pens and painting with paints I don't enjoy creating any graphic design drawn or painted work on a computer.

However I enjoy seeing other people's Graphic design work so I'm looking fwd to seeing more of your Adobe Illustrator work

It's getting to the point of nearly finishing the first project.

It's funny because once i'm done i'm going to submit it.

I will post up my final up here as well so that you can see what i have all done.
