Last week I was talking to Aloa, one of the Abduzeedo writers, and he was showing me some images that he thought were cool for tutorials, one of those had this mix of vectors and gradients but very geometric. It was a nice inspiration so I decided to do something mixing Illustrator and Photoshop.
In this tutorial I will show you how to create an abstract image for a poster using Illustrator and Photoshop. We will do all the vectors and shades in Illustrator then in Photoshop we'll give to the image a nice retro style using some textures and brushes.
The wallpaper of this week is from an artist we have already featured on Abduzeedo, Lionel Charpentier, a 24 years old french graphic artist. Lionel runs a website called Electricmanja where he showcases some beautiful images mixing photos, drawings and other elements.
