From Sketch to Digital
K4RA’s design began as a hand-drawn sketch to establish structure and proportions. This groundwork ensured a smooth transition into Adobe Illustrator, where the character was refined with precise tools and techniques.
Techniques and Execution
- Gradient Mesh Tool: Used to create smooth shading and dimensionality on metallic and glowing surfaces.
- Geometric Design: Built using clean vector shapes to achieve a modern and cohesive aesthetic.
- Color and Light Effects: Bold pink tones with glowing highlights and gradients add vibrancy and depth.
- Anchor Point Refinement: Fine-tuned every detail to ensure smooth curves and balanced proportions.
