Web Picks #1 : SMOKE

setembro 16, 2008 from aloa's blog

Web Picks is a new series here on Abduzeedo. The idea of the articles is to choose a subject, and present photography, artwork, designs, illustrations and tutorials we find on the topic; and put them together. When designing we tend to forget to look at mediums other than the one we are currently working in. We hope this series will illustrate the many dimensions a single subject can have, and provide cross-format insight for each subject.

Following "Daily Inspirations", this is the second new series on Abduzeedo.com starting today. The idea is to choose a subject, and present photography, artwork, designs, illustrations and tutorials we find on the topic. This time we chose "smoke". Here's what we found.

This is my first entry for this series. It would be great if you could give me some feedback.

Belíssima Ilustração no Illustrator e Photoshop by Carol Rivello
Belíssima Ilustração em Illustrator e Photoshop by Carol Rivello
Oi Pessoal! Criei, especialmente para este making of, uma divertida ilustração para o header do blog da minha irmã, a Stella. No seu blog e ela narra situações do dia-a-dia com leveza e bom humor, e achei que seria divertido desenvolver uma ilustração que representasse isso. Espero que esse meu passo a passo ajude os profissionais que estão começando a se aventurarem pelo mundo do design e ilustração. E fique à vontade para dar feedbacks e para comentar o tutorial. Passo 1 - Brainstorming ftw
