Magic island series, vector illustrations, part 3

in #art6 years ago (edited)

Hi again, it's me with landscapes in addition to the first two parts )

Part 1, part 2

Among other techniques for microstocks I draw vector illustrations in Adobe Illustrator. There are a lot of constrictions in stock illustration, for instance you can't use any raster effects (as blur, drop shadows, raster textures and so on). That's why stock vectors often look too flat and simple.
To avoid this I apply gradient and my own hand drawn vector textures. This increase the result EPS file size (that must be not much than 15 Mb), so you need to know when to stop of cause.

The series I would like to show you today was grown up from an idea to depict a green island looks like an unbroken complete shape filled with small objects like houses, cars, trees and flowers.
