Week 8 - Group Progress

After returning from our mid semester break Molly and I sat down and reviewed each other’s work, what we liked about it and what needed to be fixed or improved. Daming was absent this week although he send his work through making it easy for us to review it. 

My task for the Mid semester break was the front part of the collage (MV Agusta Bike), with Molly and Daming working on the rear section (Russel’s sketch). 

In regards to my section, I am pleased how the bike looks zoomed out, I think it looks convincing. But once zoomed in I find my pen tool lines to be uneven and wonky totally throwing the realism look.

 I want to go back and either add to my existing drawing or totally start again depending if what I have done can be improved. I think I might try another approach and technique to see which gives a better result. I also need to use the cronolapse application as there was no mac version when i was playing around with this illustrator project. 

Molly and Damings sections look great. They totally match up with Russel’s sketch. Two versions of the sketch were done, a live traced version which shows the jagged lines caused by the pixels making it more “authentic” to the original. And one with smooth edged lines that capture the sketch and ads clarity to it.
