Bu kursa neler dahil?
Fernando Vicente tells you more about his passion for the world of pin-ups, his beginnings as an illustrator, his influences, and his work.
Dive into the historical context of this type of illustration and its evolution, from its appearance in the 1920s to the height of the pin-up movement during World War II.
Explore the different materials you need to make these illustrations, discover their pros and cons, and pick up some extra tips.
Start with research and finding inspiration. Then, choose an image of a pin-up girl to start making your illustration.
Fernando explains the importance of style correction and teaches you how to highlight interesting features when modifying a model or an original photograph and giving it personality.
First, outline a first sketch of your idea to frame the proportions of your piece. Then, move on to sketching on your final piece of paper.
See the step-by-step techniques to creating this type of illustration. Slightly erase the sketch lines and then redraw them with sanguine before applying a base color layer. For a watercolor effect, use watered-down acrylic paint and experiment until you get loose brush strokes.
Next, learn to color the eyes and add blush to the face. Fernando shows you how to use the color black, create highlights and gradients while the paint is wet, and delicately outline your illustration.
Finally, learn some tricks to make the shadows more realistic and add the final touches to finish your illustration. Now all you need to do is share your pin-up illustration!
