The goal of this assignment was to make a character and design them in photoshop (raster) and illustrator (vector). We were required to understand pixels on photoshop, specific settings, and which tools to use. Along with understanding the tools on illustrator and having all of the classic essential tools on.
These are my sketches for this assignment. I made two with lots of detail and one more simple, wanting to give her a video game character vibe. I had made the third sketch previously in my Sticker assignment, but I really wanted to design him since I didn't pick him for the sticker. After through thinking, I decided to go with the first sketch because I hadn't drawn a character like her before and I thought she was the best choice.
This is the final product of the design. On the right side is my sketch of the character, in the middle is the raster version of her, and the left side is the vector version. While the pixels were fun to design on, and the result is cute, I wish it could have more detail like the vector one, which is why I prefer that version. I was able to incorporate different colors and add extra lines for details. I was also able to include the tattoo on the vector version.
