Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone! This Project may not make Martha Stewart green with envy, but it was the most difficutlt so far. The back ground was hard to do mostly because in some items in graphic design there isn't one that says 'Here's gradient background! Enjoy'. There's a chain of buttons that leads to this or any certain object that is used to help in graphic design.
What was really hair pulling to me was the grave stones. Those two uneven bumps near the bats were supposed to look like grave stones, but with my amazing background that consist of a red sky and a pitch black background, they don't show. And I worked hard on those grave stones, it's not easy trying to figure out how to use Opacity Mask.

Mess

This I think is pretty cool and it didn't take me long either. I think the hardest thing to do on the project was the prespective on the name. Other than that it was easy.

Jenn

This is my best so far. It compact and creative. I used the grey/purple shape to add design to the picture. I remember using the translucent shapes in the Lily pad picture, it proved to be useful in this.

Snowboard

So this is my Snow board picture. I used a picture from the link on the website. I'm sorry that it's cut off, I was fiishing it up during advocate on a new illustrator and I guess my illustrator and the new one didn't share the same save equipment. I the hope the color scheme worked together though, that's my favorite in the picture.

Lilly pads

You do NOT wanna know what I've been throught tho make this right. It was so hard for me to make the lilly pads and the flower petals. Using colors wasn't so bad but if I didn't have any help then this pond would sure be a different color. It's like Illustrator was telling me 'So you're working hard on this picture, allow me to make things worse.'. But with a lot of help and some luck I made it.

This was very hard. It wasn't even my first one. It would have been better if it weren't for those save settings.

Basketball star

This guy was very hard to do. I mean you have Ctrl + Z to redo your mistakes, but there are moments when I was working with the computer and it tells me it's not good enoungh to copy his hair because I didn't capture ALL of the pin points. The basket-ball was also hard because when I was following the instructions, the illustrator wouldn't delete all of the lines on the basket-ball, No it just had to delete the whole thing execpt some small circle that wasn't even covering the basket-ball.
