About the final project for: Fantasy Illustration in Your Own Style

Fantastic illustration with own stamp

“You have reached the end of the course, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did and it has been very helpful. Thank you very much for choosing to learn with me.

Define some important elements that you want to integrate into your illustration. Remember to add elements that you can repeat in other illustrations so that you can build your own graphic line.
