Assignment 1 - 'My name is ......' (Continued)

Drawing my designs on Illustrator was such an insane process! Because there was so much detail and shading on my actual drawings, i had to find a way to make it as interesting because there was no way i could bring the sketchy lines and the shading across. I added some little details here and there, as well as a background to unite the 3 drawings in each set together! Enjoy!

I wanted a background that could unite the three images instead of a background that left them floating around, so hence the seabed! It gives some resting ground for the crab and ground for the corals next to the dolphin to take root! The initial colour of my background fish was orange but after some feedback, i changed it to grey so as not to take the attention away from the three designs. Compared to the thumbnail of the dolphin in the first post where it was an 'n', i added an extra coral to make it an 'N'.

Similarly, i wanted a background to have a link with the three designs so i thought, why not just let the treats spill out of the bag with other candies and desserts in the background? Also, the alterations mentioned in my first post with regards to the 'N' has been made, and it is now an 'n'.

Hope you like my designs as much as i do!
