OUGD503 - UK Greetings: Designs




















Bumblebee
The bumblebee has been digitally designed using a chalk-effect brush to replicate the bees short-haired, fuzzy texture. The final outcome of the bee is a simplified design of bumblebee yet still features the key parts that still has the identification of a bee. It's rough texture of an actual bee itself and the illustration makes it appear more realistic.























Red Squirrel
Using a bristle brush, the design was made by layering different colours on top of each other to replicate a squirrels soft furry exterior. A mixture of browns, greys, whites and oranges were used to create the fur to add dimension to the animal.



















Tortoiseshell Butterfly
The texture of a butterfly is smooth yet it is slightly fuzzy around the body so by recreating that digitally, an ink brush was used to mimic the texture. The Tortoiseshell butterfly is a very colourful type of butterfly and so making it appear more undone, you can see the bright colours more vividly.



Turtle  Dove
The dove has been hand-drawn as opposed to digitally like the others as the texture of a bird is smooth and so would look best recreated by hand. To create the design digitally would make it appear more conventional and boring - it would turn out like a digital colouring book as it will use block colours rather than having the ability to shade by hand. The Turtle Dove have different variants of colour and different tones so using colouring pencils by hand, gives a more subtle and smoother appearance.
