Construction Toy Poster

In class we had to create illustrations of our toys. I designed our light-up shapes in Illustrator.

To the left you can see it.

I used the 3D tool to create the shapes and blocks, and then put them all together to build a 'night-light'.

I made this illustration into a poster, explaining the product with a little bit of detail. I used shadows to help create a 'night-light' look to it. I wanted to make the background a faint lilac, but I had trouble with the gradient and blending as I'm still a little new to the software.

I did change the poster around a little so the fonts, etc, but I think the black and white theme dulled it a little.

I also created had previously sketched how the pieces connect (previous blog), and what the shapes look like, for instance.
