Two of my
boards were inspired by Jason Brooks, I used a similar technique to colour my
illustrations. I tried to develop my style by adding the leaf brushes in the
hair of my illustrations; originally I created ink splatter brushes on
Photoshop however I didn’t like the look it created so I opted for the leaf
brushes, I thought that this would also fit in with the sustainable aspect of
my collection a they link through nature.
I think
that they do meet the needs of noir however I feel that the models don’t quite
fit with the company as they tend to use European models and I have used Asian
models as I thought that this fit with my Asian trend. I think that my boards
are success full and I like the outcome.
I feel that
my style has developed over the two years and I feel more confident
illustrating digitally. I think my Photoshop and illustrator skills have also
improved however I feel that I was restricted to experiment more with my style
as I illustrated my collection for noir, I couldn’t experiment with more
colours.
I think I
could improve these with experimenting with more poses and
I think I should have experimented with more techniques.
In all I much prefer these boards to my other two, I'm not sure what it is but I feel much more confident with these and in general just like the look of these more.
Thanks for reading!! what do you think of my boards??
