Self Illustration

The process for the self illustration project started with talking a photo of yourself mainly getting your facial features in the photo either your own or someone else's. The photos were taken using a high quality webcam used on mac pros.

Once happy with the chosen photo i started working on tracing with the pen tool around the face first .

shortly after then other facial features such as eyes,eyebrows,ears etc.
Once traced and curved the selected layer would be coloured according to the correct colour of the original person on screen.

Once facial features and hair and all on screen objects were traced and coloured simple small details were added to the self portrait such as lines in hair shown on the finished product the photo was then cropped to an expectable size and the final product is finished.
