This project is all about creating our own character. Once we got familiar with how to create a character using all the tools learned in the previous exercise (Vormator), we were told that we could create another character. Since I wasn't completely happy with what I did before, I decided to do it all over again. It'll be a good practice for me as well.

1.1 Tracing the element of vormator

1.2 Silhouette of my own character

1.3 Final Outcome of Character (Silhouette)

1.4 Character's Outline ( With cut for highlights and shadows)

1.5 Grey Scale of Character

1.5 Color Swatches

1.6 Final Piece

30/04/18 (Week 6)

This week was about Chiaroscuro, we have to use the pen tool to trace out the shape of a pear, and later on use the knife tool and divide among Pathfinder to create shadows and highlights, and split the fruit to create an interesting composition and colour it.

2.1 Original Picture

2.2 Outline

2.3 Final Piece

This week, we continued the exercise of Chiaroscuro, but this time we traced out the shadows of a skull and combine it to the pear.

3.1 Picture of skull

3.2 Picture of pear

We got to use tools such as the pen tool, Pathfinder, compound path and clipping mask. Then, now we have to create chiaroscuro of our self-portrait that taken in the photography studio.

Subject to subject: A series of changing subjects within a single scene

Scene to scene: Transitions across significant distances of time/space

4.2 Transition

25/05/18 (Week 10)

This week was about brush, we learned how to create our own bushes and using mixing brush tools, Experimenting with how we can create our own brushes by clicking ' define brush preset'. I search up 'paint splatter' and 'watercolour splatter' to try this out.

5.1 Trying my own brushes and blending option

We were given an example of digital greyscale painting. After that Mr Hafiz asked we to borrow pen tablet and demonstrated how to draw it using brushes. Additionally, he also teaches us how set brushes such as pressure, tilt etc.

5.2 example for digital greyscale painting

5.3 Re-painting digital greyscale painting

We also instructed to draw an Ellipse shape to give it some volume using the brush tool (hard round pressure opacity). I thought it was hard because I don't know how to make a shadow but then I did it.
