We had to make and 8" x10" illustration of a soda can, x-acto knife, or phone for this assignment, one that is good enough to be printed in an ad. The first one I did was of an x-acto knife using gouache pick-out method on a matte-gesso base. The gesso base allowed me to be able to work out all the different shades of gray. I think it could have turned out better as far as precision but I think the overall idea is there. After scanning it and printing it at 50% original size it definitely softened out some of the transitions. I also started working on a Pepsi can illustration which is still in the works... more to come!!
