A Few NEW Ideas to Consider for Week #4 Project Study...

Here are just a few ideas to consider for week #4's project studies.  I really like old retro ads and the older the better sometimes.  These are some especially well-known brands that I really like the look and feel.  It would be interesting to see how to recreate them in Illustrator and Photoshop.  I'm sure they weren't created that way originally.  I have others if these aren't retro enough.

    I think the bottom one would be best. The funny thing is that the image you are showing is a poor quality Illustrator livetrace that someone has already done. You need to find one of the original ad paintings to start with. It might be worth a trip into campus to browse old magazines.

    Yea I thought about that once I looked at the image more closely after posting it. I've posted another image above from Coca-Cola's website I really like but it may not be high enough res either. I actually would like to learn how to reproduce the image using the bottle techniques you described last week anyway and if there's anything further you can post to help explain techniques for this image, that'd be super. I can't get down to campus this week because we're going out of town but will work with what I can find online in the meantime. And if it doesn't work out to do this project this week I'll do it next week once we get back and find something else this week to do. Thanks!
