Digital Illustration and My Favorite Stranger Things Characters

I just wanna share some of my recent digital illustrations here.😊 Since our specialization is TLE-ICT (Illustration), I felt compelled to showcase a sample demonstration for digital illustration. So here it goes...

For vectorizing Eleven, I used Adobe Photoshop as my digital illustration tool. Unfortunately, some of my learners do not have laptop or computer with Photoshop application, so I just challenged them to use their mobile illustration apps like Ibis Paint Tool, MediBang, or Autodesk Sketchbook and practice the digital tracing process through the application's painting tools. As for their performance task, I asked them to vectorize or trace their own profile pictures. Upon seeing their outputs, I could say that they did enjoy this lesson a lot. I'll try to post some of the best here, with  their permission of course.

Here is my vectorized version of Eleven from Stranger Things:

I also recorded my drawing process:

Also, with the use of Autodesk SketchBook app, I also tried to draw a Chibi version of Will Byers. I did show this as sample output for my students and not surprisingly some of them even came up with  better outputs than mine😀, which actually made me very happy!
