If you never really learned how to properly design props and vehicles, check out our new Prop Design curriculum! It features two brand new classes that go deep into the world of props and vehicles.
Props and vehicles can bring so much to a story, so learning how to design them well is a key skill for illustrators to develop. That's why we created our new Prop Design curriculum! To give illustrators a solid intro into design, by starting with simpler challenges before moving on to more complex ones.
Once you are done with it, you should have 4 black and white portfolio pieces that you will learn how to color in Level 3 of our curriculum!
All the classes in the curriculum will be available in our monthly and annual subscription, so you can watch them on your own time, and do the assignments at your own pace.
Here’s the lineup of classes in Level 2 Prop Design:
Intro To Prop Design
With Jake Parker. Brand new class! Props are so often overlooked as a design element, but when well-designed, they can add so much to a story.
Effective Vehicle Design
With Shane Hunt. Brand new class! Vehicles can be so much more than just a part of the background. They can be an environment, an extension of a character, or even a character in their own right.
It helps to have the basics down before doing the Level 2 Prop Design classes. If you haven't already, check out our Level 1 classes to brush up on shape, line, perspective and value.
