Final Image Preview
To begin with let’s have a look at the image we’ll be creating.Step 1
Take a series of photos of your subject to decide which angle will work best. Here is the link to the camera image chosen.Step 2
Import your chosen photo into Illustrator using File > Place. Lock this layer and create a new one on top of it.Step 3
Choose a red 0.5 pt stroke, with no fill, and use the Pen tool to start tracing the outlines of your image. Start with the main outlines then the inner lines. You don’t have to be too accurate, as we’re going to be distorting the lines later.Step 4
Use the Pencil tool to draw the finer details.Step 5
Now that we’re done tracing we’re going to make the drawing feel more hand-rendered. Choose the Wrinkle tool (it’s in the Warp tool sub-menu).Step 6
You might have to experiment with the settings to get the desired effect; here’s what I used.Step 7
Lock your finer details by selecting them and hitting Command+2. Click quickly all over your image to wrinkle the lines.Step 8
Now tidy up a bit using the Direct Selection tool to join up all the stroke ends again.Step 9
You might also want to use Object > Path > Simplify to tidy up, especially if the wrinkle effect was too pronounced in an area.Step 10
Now unlock all your lines, select them all, and make them black. Then vary the stroke widths a bit. Make the main outlines wider (around 1.5 pt) and the finer details thinner (0.5 pt – 0.7 pt).Step 11
Now we’re going to make a custom art brush to apply to our lines. Draw a thin oval, as shown below.Step 12
Use the Wrinkle tool again on it.Step 13
Then scale it down vertically to make a thin line that looks like a scratchy ink line.Step 14
Drag your line into the Brush panel and select Art Brush from the prompt.Step 15
Apply your custom brush to the strokes. You might have to alter the stroke widths again to get it looking right.Step 16
Now we’re done in Illustrator, and it’s time to add some color in Photoshop. (You could do all these steps within Illustrator too, but I find it easier in Photoshop.)Paste your lines into Photoshop. Create a new white background layer below it. Then create another new layer in which you’ll add your first color.
