Recreating illustrators

From my illustrator research I have sampled their techniques and have recreated one of their illustrations, after this I will create my own illustration using their style, this will eventually help me decide on what style of illustration so use for my boards and help me progress my own style helping me decide which techniques I do and don't like.

Max Gregor recreation:

I quite liked using this technique however I think I should have taken more time drawing the face as I think the eyes look a little goofy and the lips are to upward pointed. 

Bec Winnel recreation:

I finally plucked up the guts to attempt to recreate her work, I'm not sure how this will turn out but I'm hoping for the best!

This time I decided to recreate one of her cut paper techniques, over all I think I did ok, however i think the face looks a bit dodgy! 

Rene Gruau Recreation:

(The head looks a little squashed for the angle I took the picture at) I am quite happy with this creation however the eyebrow is the wrong shape.

Thanks for reading!! 

What do you think of my recreations?

Some more Fashion Illustrators

For his brief I have had to look at more illustrators so that I can test more techniques to create my own illustrating style. 

Here are some of my favourite illustrators from the new ones I have found :

Max Gregor is one of my favourite Illustrator that I have researched the second time round, I really like the bright colours that he uses and how he mixes paint with pencil.

This Illustration is my favourite of his work, I definitely want to recreate this piece for college or just for  me!

Nadia Flower is also a favourite of mine, I really love the colours and shapes she uses 

 I haven't researched into Bec Winnel as I already have enough illustrators and to be honest I would be quite scared to even try to recreate her work as its so detailed and realistic, it would take me months to even try!

However I think that so far out of all the illustrators I have researched she is my all time favourite illustrator. 

You can Download a free poster of this illustration at the bottom of the page here, I definitely want one!!
