This is my last blog post until 6th of Feb 2017 as I have a break over Christmas and the start of the New Year! Here's a little Christmas Illustration I whipped up for my last post of 2016.
Enjoy and I'll see you in February 2017!

The Steps Involved in Creating an Illustration-From Start to Finish
I often get asked what the steps involved in creating an Illustration are from the start to the finished product, so today I thought I'd take the time to show you.
First I start with sketch-Some times I use Sketchbook Pro and my 13" Wacom Cintiq other times I use my sketch book and a pencil.

Once I'm happy with my sketch I open it in Adobe Illustrator and start creating the parts. I generally create each item on a separate layer-alot of Illustrators don't do it that way. I find it's easier if I don't like something and want to change it. I recently purchased the DynamicSketch tool from Astute Graphics and that has made drawing with a Wacom Cintiq so much easier and faster! Highly recommend it!

| Adobe Illustrator |
Once I've finished the illustration in Adobe Illustrator I export it as a Photoshop file into Adobe Phhotoshop where I add the textures, shading and anything else needed.

I add it to any other illustrations that were needed and the illustration is now complete!

| Finished |
Enjoy and I'll see you next time!
