Character-oriented Illustration Design —— How to Create Character Posters? What are the design methods?

Becoming a butterfly, an original hand-painted watercolor character illustrator, received an invitation from a special editor last week to help them draw illustrations according to the selected articles. As a terminally ill procrastinator, it's really embarrassing to give them the picture after a week's delay _ (:_∞) _ The story is probably about a woman who went through a life-and-death separation, then turned from a depressed patient to a strong woman in the workplace, and then refused to leave her lover at that time to get back together. (I don't understand love C (`д _) _ ┻ ┻. It's very simple, a woman grows butterfly wings, which symbolizes transformation. It's that simple and rude! ε-(__`; The author of the article seems to like blue very much, and has always used blue to describe this woman, so I also use blue as the main color of the picture. Because I want to treat the picture as a solid color effect, and I expect that only a part of it will be scratched, in order to prevent the picture from being too single, the line draft needs to be drawn as thin as every hair (I can't help it without the line draft, for fear that my hand will break _ (:_ "∞) _) and then I started to draw. The first is to tick the line. I'm used to eating the hardest first. So I started to hook my hair. Although they all use blue hooks, they should be changed to avoid being too monotonous. The density and thickness of lines should be different. At the same time, I also use a dark blue hook in the dark and a shallow lake blue hook in the light. As for the smoothness of lines, there is nothing to say. You still have to practice, or your hands will shake _ (:_∞) _ After hooking your hair, you will find other lines besides wings. By the way, color your eyes. They are all blue, and soon ~ ε-(_ _ `; ) Then you can cast shadows. Just use light blue and purple to express the relationship between light and shade, and draw lips with light red. Why use purple? The uniform color looks better (I think) and the wings are painted at last. This wing belongs to the most beautiful butterfly in the world-the goddess of light. Probably longer than this. Because the theme of the characters on the right is only crossing, the color is only light. In order to prevent the imbalance of the picture, the color of the left wing should not be too heavy, otherwise it will appear too solid on the left and too empty on the right. The processing here is more transparent. First smudge the light blue within the wings with wet painting, and pay attention to the white patches on the wings to leave white. When it's dry, use a slightly darker blue hook to draw details, such as the meridians of wings. Then, erase the pencil line of the manuscript. Colored places are not easy to erase, so try to be light when typing. Last step, spray some. In order to reflect the flash of the butterfly goddess of light, a toothbrush with bristles is dipped in white pigment, and then the bristles are touched with fingers dipped in water, and white dots are sprayed on the screen. The size of the dot can be controlled by water, and the dot will be smaller if there is less water on hand. The density can be controlled by the distance from the paper and the spraying times. The specific effect will be known by trying it yourself ~ ε-(_ _ `; )。 Finally, dip the pen in white paint and dot it according to the effect, and it's done ~ how to create a character poster? What are the design methods? Character posters are generally composed of character images and text designs. This mixed layout design has a * * * feature: at first glance, it will be attracted by the characters, and then slowly transfer to the text content. The impression of a good work depends largely on the style and content of the characters. Of course, if we can use various elements, it will also help to highlight the theme of the work. Today, we share the method of designing character posters. 0 1 Try different artistic effects. If you try different artistic effects and apply them to graphic design, you will instantly bring different artistic effects to the picture and improve the richness of the picture. Then artistic effect refers to the designer's understanding of the theme, the use of creative techniques, the means of information transmission and the mastery of artistic language.

If you feel that the layout is too monotonous, you can try the way of pressing words with pictures, with words as the background, and the main picture is arranged directly on the words. Or the combination of words and graphics makes it a part of graphic creativity. On the whole, the unique layout form with pictures and texts is realized. Improve recognition and interest, and convey graphic information at the same time. Black and white theme Black and white is always the best design partner. Black and white sounds dull and monotonous, and some traditional ideas in China think that black and white is unlucky. In fact, on the contrary, they have a fashionable and simple beauty, and even give people a noble and elegant feeling. Usually the picture is adjusted to black and white, and neutral color is used as the main color in a large area. Then add a single color, the protagonist will play a prominent role here, which can form a strong contrast and unified balance. Double exposure effect Double exposure effect has always been welcomed by photographers, and it is also a more classic photo design and production technique often used by designers and artists. These double-exposure posters look very creative and artistic, but they are not difficult to do. The transformation of illustration elements into illustration forms can be understood as the combination of point, line and surface graphics other than shooting, that is, hand-drawn graphics. The advantage of illustration lies in its rich imagination and free creativity. Bold creativity and color matching When you choose exaggerated creativity and color matching, there will be a strong visual impact. Have an impact on the audience, they will be attracted by the emotions and energy conveyed by the picture. To create this effect, the less words, the more energy. Generally, there are two ways to solve the specific design of illustration characters. Some people like to make a silhouette, that is, to think of a dynamic, with black, gray and white to pave the way for the dynamic and light-shade relationship of the characters.

. There is also a typed manuscript.

Well, after this step is completed, it is thinning, starting from dark color and laying color step by step, according to the relationship and structure of human muscles and the direction of light source you have determined.

Later, when you determine the relationship between the black and white manuscripts of good people. You can draw something, of course, remember, refine and finally. When you think it's finished, congratulations, it's finished (I'm a self-learner, and it may be wrong. I suggest you watch some tutorial videos with speeches. I recommend one for you, the portrait tutorial of priestess Huang Guangjian. As long as this is understood, the rest should be understood.
