Vector Portrait

To familiarise ourselves with the pen tool on InDesign we were given the task to choose a photo of someone and recreate it using a limited colour palette and different colour shapes. I chose a photo of Cara Delevingne as I thought the photo had a good range of colours and tones.
Original

Work In Progress

Firstly I traced round the whole image in detail in black pen. I then used the fill tool to colour in each section of the artworkb with the right tone according to the picture.




Final Piece
Overall I really liked the effect this gave and it familiarised myself with the different light and dark tones in a picture. However I did not use this image in my magazine as I felt it did not fit in with my magazine theme.
