In Design for the First Time.

Here is the original file: 

And here is my version of it (with a different topic and color scheme):

Once you're past the frustration, this is rather fun.

Quick Backstory

You want to know what sucks? I spent hours on the original image and had to end up deleting the punk because I tried to edit it in Photoshop and bring it back into Illustrator, but that messed things up. The first one did have windows, and I am sorely disappointed that it didn't work out for me. All that work; all that time!

Perspective Assignment

I guess something is better that nothing... Fear not, I will turn in the rest late, but in a timely manner, so hold on for the completed assignment, please.

Reloaded Logos

Here's the first project I've modified! I worked on the three logos that were shown in critique. I hope you all will want to eat at Little Caesar's now.

By the way, I hope my viewers clicked on the "read more" link on the original post of this to see the logo designs last week.

Illustrator "Live" tool designs

I decided to get funky with a couple of the shapes; I really enjoy that "add anchor points" feature. This is probably the most fun I've had during my experience learning to use Illustrator. So, first I am posting the shape design, which I'm proud of having completed earlier than I've completed any thing so far...

And now for the live trace of the teacher:

  

I had a heckuva time getting this one together folks. It may not look like it, but I spent about a couple of hours on this baby. Not so elaborate, but I was primarily focused on playing the paintbrush tool and blend options... of course it would be after I post the thing that I just remembered I could take it to Photoshop... Oh well, I'll leave that chore for another day.

Live trace, Live paint in-class practice

Instead of using the photo of our teacher during the tutorial, I used the rubber duck, but I may practice with the teacher's image later and put it onto this post (since the teacher 'insisted' on us using that image).
