Learning Adobe Illustrator

These are my very first Adobe Illustrator projects. I wanted to look into Ai for a long time and finally accomplished to get started.

My first Projects

I am currently learning and playing around with Adobe Illustrator. I wanted to do that for quite a while now... In this Behance project I’ll showcase some of my first “projects”.

Let’s see how I’ll make some progress with illustrator :-)

After watching a couple of tutorials especially from Pixel & Bracket I thought I have a very rough understanding of the basic tools and methods so I tried out my very first project without a step by step tutorial.

This little Lighthouse was the result:

After my little Lighthouse project I really liked how the cliffs came out so I wanted to do more cliffs ;-)

So I created a collection on Unsplash (Thanks to all the awesome photographers!) and grabbed the pen tool.

The image I used as a template was this one. Big thanks to asoggetti!

I was really happy how my first projects came out. It is so much fun to try out all these tools and possibilities! I wanted to see what others can do with Illustrator and checked out Reddit and Pinterest. Really awesome stuff!

I felt in love with these flat landscape

As an inspiration and kind of a template I used the this.

Paying around with Adobe Illustrator is really so much fun :-) I am so happy that the subscription for students is really affordable.

Next I wanted to try out something I could use also for other projects. So I decided to create some Japan related assets. Last year I went to Japan and a photo book is still on my bucket list. In this book I would like to use some of my designs.

I started with my most favourite Japanese thing... Ramen ;-)

After I completed my next Japan Asset - the Torii Gate - I had a lot of Ideas what I could do with it.

This is one of them:
