This assignment required us to use Illustrator to create a map of Tassie (so to speak). It was an exercise specifically designed to demonstrate the use of layers and the Pen Tool. We used an existing map as a template and then on each different layer would trace/create different elements of the map i.e. land, roads, town names, map outline, ocean.
Jeez, you did really well! I found it took me ages to get the hang of the pen tool. It only really took off when I got a job and had no choice!!
ReplyDeleteIt was certainly the trickiest tool I've used so far - maybe my skill with a real pen is inversely proportionate to my ability with a digital one!
