Assignment One [MODIFIED]

Theme: Me, Myself and I

I ended up redoing the whole of Assignment One. This time I redrew using Illustrator instead of Photoshop. Previously, I relied heavily on my writing tablet to draw because I really couldn’t figure out how to use Illustrator. [Thanks to Kayvern, I managed to grasp the basic techniques within a short while.] Anyway, yes back to the Assignment, the first attempt was kind of messy, the lines ain't straight, and was kind of obvious that it was ‘hand drawn’ using the tablet.

I really didn't like the alphabet "f" in my former attempt. So during the second attempt, I really tried hard to change the alphabet F.

Sketches of F:

In the end, I settled with a simpler alphabet F as compared to my first attempt to balance the focus throughout my name. And i also took Ms Siti's comments into consideration, improved on the the first A, S and C.

In my initial attempt, my name was hardly readable. It took everyone quite a while to figure out where’s ‘FRANSCA’. So in the following attempt, sticking with my initial concept, I was all out to make sure my name would appear more obvious. In fact, some suggested to use the concept of the words ‘Spiders’ in my earlier attempt on my name =( but it was kind of disappointing when I heard that, because I really squeezed out all the juices in my brain and came up with my name ‘Entangled in Web’ concept. And I pretty much do like the idea of it.

So ‘stubbornly’, I continued to work on my idea. Anyway, these are what Kayvern suggested.

I drew a few sketches to try what seems to work best.

After formulating a few new ideas, I started my work on illustrator...
And after drawing this...

I begin to improvise and improvise...
till I was happy and satisfied with my final masterpiece.
