1:10 Wednesday / Thursday Illustrator Project: VTC Knight

Today we are going to work on layering different digital assets we create. If we take a look at the night above and break it down into shapes, you will find that it really isn’t that complicated.
We are going to ignore the text. I want you to build a vector version of the knight / sword / shield.
Let’s think about the main areas, and what where we can overlap assets:
- The left (stage left) arm – create the metal color and then create separate black elements to go on it.
- The helmet – same thing.
- The sword – same.
- The shield, tassel, and tunic would be created with a large green ( or black) shape, then creating separate black (or green) design elements to layer on top.
The goals for this project are:
- Continued practice of the tools in Illustrator / Getting used to the interface.
- Working to layer design assets (that may be simple shapes) to create a detailed final product. Don’t get overwhelmed in the process, as soon as the lightbulb goes off over your head you will find that complex designs are actually rather simple!
- Practice exporting and creating a final .png.
Save your file as “(lastname)Knight.png” and upload to your “week_14” folder.
