Art: Illustrator
I've always wanted to be able produce nice looking computer graphics. I've played around with a lot of different programs, but I've never invested the time to actually learn them properly. So yesterday I went and asked Rhys for some pointers when using Adobe Illustrator.
He told me to go and take a look at Pixel2Life, which has a nice selection of tutorials. I had a bit of a play last night, and some of the controls are starting to make sense to me now.
I had a bit of a play this morning, and this is my 10-15min attempt at some bamboo.
Just ignore the crap attempt at a border - I cropped the image a bit too much when I was converting it to a .jpg
