4; Typography Illustration : Throwing it Back

Software: Adobe Illustrator CS6, Adobe Photoshop CS6
Tools: Pen Tool, Shape Tool, Eyedropper Tool, Width Tool

+ Begin by picking a theme for your illustration. I decided to go with the cartoon theme of my childhood because I thought it would be nostalgic to be able to recall all the cartoons that I watched when I was little. Also, it would be fun to experiment with all the cartoon characters.

+ Firstly, sketch out your ideas on a piece of graph paper for proper measurement and precision.

+ Adjust brightness, sharpness and crop away any unnecessary edges in Photoshop.

+ Open the file in AI, begin tracing as usual. It takes a good amount of patience to complete everything.

+ Pick the colours of your choice. I decided to go with the similar colours with the original character but a little more pastel and sometimes more muted.

Can you recognise some of them?


I decided to make a remake of BIGBANG's Made poster and colours using my illustration. I even changed the colours according to their albums, M, A ,D and E series.

An introvert who likes a lot of things such as food, models, editing, reading, kpop and the list goes on. In conclusion, I like things that are therapeutic to my eyes.
