Description Weekend stuff-to-do-at-home.

I got this concept when I watched a variety show this morning about how DJ works. Moving the disc, pressing the buttons or sowhtever.

Adobe Illustrator CS, about 8 hours.

Colour used: only 2, haha... U'll notice, one is white and another indigo. Personally to Asbtract design, I dont like A LOT of colours, cuz I feel it'll make the design looks like a playground rather than professional.
Opacity and layering did those tricks.

Total layers: 120 (o.O) ( My most layered artwork is 180 so far for its complexity)

Comments and questions are welcome!

Geeze... 120 layers? On average I use 3. I like all the things in this picture, like the world. It just looks like a design, but it's very eye appealing. I like the colors even though it is just two. Sometimes simplicity is better.

VectorIce In reply to BaneKamisama [2005-01-12 17:25:00 +0000 UTC]

Yes, only two colors used. Opacity and layer tricks make it special. Sometimes I use layers becuz I juz wanna seperate the bkgrnd and the main art on the art board so I won't be mistaken and editing becomes easier. But sometimes, it's becuz of clipping mask which layer has to be on top of one another.

I did the map for the BG. It's juz a fade out BG. The hardest part in this piece is the layering technique and how you place those little tiny bits together for eye-appealing.

Keep in touch and take care.

120?! my comp would have a fit and die

Anyway, I'm very much enjoying your poster art I've worked a bit with Illustrator though it's most handy little tricks are most probably unknown to me and you seem to use it so well!

very cool design! The layers of circles with the + symbol in them reminds me of the duracel batter commercials.

Nope, I didnt use any special brushes. If I did, it would be in PS.

andyhutchinson [2005-01-09 07:12:06 +0000 UTC]

Very cool. I feel the upper portion of the piece works best - the limited palette just seems to suit a more uncluttered feel that you have at the top. Nice piece though - I like it a lot

Oh wow.. 120 layer **sobs**

Great work . . . and blue is my favorite color too I like your "complexities" and it does feel DJ-Trance like indeed.
