  • Illustrating Resources

    #1
    I'm not a good illustrator - quite frankly, I suck at it!

    I'm looking for some resources to help with my drawing/illustrating skills.

    I'm not referring to the Adobe software program, rather, I'm looking for resources to help improve my drawing by hand skills.

    Create many still lifes and go "wild".

    pencil, charcoal, whatever your heart desires.

    Within the last year I think I have done around 20-30 still lifes....they are so great.

    //end sarcasm,lol

    There really arn't any "usefull" books in my opinion.

    Through all my drawing class's for prequiets for illustration I never set a hand on a book... besides for life drawing- cause that can somewhat become "technical".

    Drawing is all about spatial relationships... and to better understand those spatial relationships it takes practice... not a book.

          Adding my thoughts to the pot:



          - Kerning needs attention.

          - Why have tiny illegible type especially with a big blank space at the bottom?

          - Font chosen...

          If the client in any way indicates that they are still undecided on which designer to higher, or if they're just looking for a quote, don't do any design work. If they want to see "what ideas you...

          Please don't send me a logo file (with no additional specs) and then question why I'm not using the right Pantone color for your branding. I'm using what you sent me, and that's the color specified in...
