For this illustration, we were asked to create a vector version of ourselves to help show off our personality. I went through the whole process of taking a photo of myself and working through a style to outline and create the final image, opting for a flatter look.

PROCESS

I started off by taking a look through my camera roll to find a photo I liked, then imported it into illustrator. From there I started sketching the outlines for the main aspects such as the hair, shirt, pants, and any other pertinent items like the hair accessories and phone. After that, I started adding details to the shirt to minimize the blank canvas for colour it offered. Finally, I used the colour picker to add the colour and give it that vector feel, along with some shadows to tie it all together.
