Learn techniques and resources to create stylish commercial illustrations in Photoshop
Basing your illustrations on some usual themes or concepts, or resorting to specific elements, can help you achieve your own style and be recognizable from the rest of the illustrators. The Ilustronaut resorts to political, satirical and mocking themes in his compositions with character and full of personality, which have made him stand out and work for clients such as 7up, Sprayground, Merrell, Interbank, among others.
In this course, Ilustronauta will teach you to create characters and their universes from the concept of a brand, expressing everything in the composition of a digitally illustrated poster, while you find your own style. You will start with the mood board and the concept, you will go to the sketch and outline, you will do the coloring and shading, until the final finish.

Sigo el trabajo de Ilustronauta desde hace muchos años y cuando vi su curso en Doméstika no lo pensé dos veces para aprender de su técnica. Es una fuente de inspiración y siempre está pendiente de las tendencias para compartir su arte con todos.
Gran curso, excelente técnica, pero sobre todo lo hace ver simple. Eso demuestra dominio y experiencia.
