Step 4
Start the line art. Do what you’re used to doing. I personally don’t use strokes in Illustrator because I like to have more control
over my lines, but honestly, do what you feel the best at doing. I like to start from the eyes because that is the most central part
of the illustration. Then just build around it.
Step 5
As you’re illustrating your piece, explore some ideas in shading, or just add to it. I would never suggest copying the piece
straight up, but allow yourself to be creative. Also, don’t rush it. As you’re only focusing on one side of this piece, you’re already
saving yourself time. Let the lines flow and add your own perspective on the piece.
Step 6
Once you get the first side done, copy your line art and flip it. Once you do this, line up the sides so they are almost flush. At
that point, you’ll discover that certain spots look flat or odd. This is your chance to go in and clean that up and also blend the
middle a little bit so it will feel more unique.
Step 7
Adding colour is quite fun. Create a new Layer under your line art. Lock the layer that has your line art on it, and also hide or
click off of the layer with photo. You want to avoid any distractions and work with a clean background. First you want to drop a
base colour down.
