Wrapping Paper

Our project was to design our own wrapping paper and then add it onto a box to make it look 3D. I chose to do a soccer themed wrapping paper because I like soccer. Making the actual wrapping paper wasn't too hard because you could use the pattern feature in photoshop. The hardest part of this project was adding it to a box to make it look realistic and 3D. I had to use the warp tool and I couldn't find a way to keep the warp uniform to make it look realistic. Being honest, I didn't enjoy this project because I got really annoyed about how hard it was to make the wrapped box look realistic. 

Illustrator Car

This was the first time I messed around with adobe illustrator. I found illustrator pretty straight forward and actually like it a lot more for graphics. I used the pen tool to make this car. I have used the pen tool in Photoshop many times so I was pretty used to using it. This car is a Lexus LFA. I made an LFA because it's one of my dream cars. To make the car, I imported a photo of the car and traced it with the pen tool. After sketching it, I turned it into a live paint and used the live paint bucket to color the car. I had the most trouble with making the rims of the wheel. I tried my best to make it look realistic.
