There’s a certain something that marks out an amazing artwork from one that’s merely good: an extra little touch of talent or something special about the concept that raises it above the rest. Here we ask some of our favourite and most inspiring illustrators to reveal how they produce their best pieces.
The artists featured are from digital, hand-made and mixed-media traditions, working in modes including advertising, fashion, editorial, character art, children’s illustration and pattern design. Their advice will show you how to improve colour and composition, produce better inked work and smarter digital techniques – and even how to come up with better concepts to underpin your next incredible artwork.
Maria Imaginario with her installation Quando o vinho entra o juízo sai
I love to mix different styles, combining flat vector illustrations with photographic elements. Integrating my funny characters into realistic backgrounds allows me to express my unconventional vision of everyday life, which is often populated by my imaginary friends.
When you have quite a large subject to portray, using a fairly neutral background can help bring it into focus – you don’t want to distract the viewer from the narrative.
Come & Play by Gaia Monsta
As a starting point, I will generally work on the foreground element – often a character. I then work towards the rear until I’m happy with all the elements and how they fit together in the illustration.
Use a mirror whenever you’re creating particular expressions and moods in portraits and character studies. You can alter features and hair colour, but the expression reference is invaluable. You’ll see how tiny changes in the muscles around the eyes can completely change the mood of the figure.

Whether you're fresh out of the University or the creative director of a major Studio no matter, be a sneaky problem that you just can't solve some days. Improve your skills in transforming a brief (and a blank sheet of paper) in an appealing, beautiful and effective design is a never-ending task - often with the help of a little outside inspiration.
Their collective knowledge for tips, ideas and new approaches that you sharpen your craft and creative block to beat we spoke with some of the most successful graphic designer and upcoming talent to me.

If you make your own photo shoot, you think of the content and the message. Villains before the recordings are used to do, so you know what you want to achieve and think about where the images go. Don't shoot in portrait mode when you accomplish an A4 landscape brochure. Studio-output.com
Try your own project photograph: it will improve your thinking and the originality of your solution. I shoots mount often just for small-budget projects, sometimes using available light or portable Studio lights. If you a full - on - shoot the Commission, the photographer at the beginning - they contain must then take your ideas and they sing really make. harrisonandco.com
The idea, which never quite looks for an image the same, if you through the lens. Working with the photographer create that shot best, put forward no inferior version of what. webbandwebb.co.UK
Stock photography has a bad rep, some of it justified, especially with terribly cliched corporate imagery and other photographic representations of clip art. However much is image problem on laziness among the designers, who can rely on stock photos as an easy option. You need a clear brief, what kind of Commons image to look, and what he should say. Selective and demanding and have a good eye for what a well genommener photo. Stock photos often require cropping, also to your letter to concentrate the most important aspect. rosedesign.co.UK

Working with Illustrator should be a rewarding experience for them, you and the customer. It is an opportunity to articulate a message with a custom look, and to create something unique and unforgettable. As an Illustrator successfully commissioning is to build of a relationship and work with them in an open and honest way. -It is worth a brief rereading before there's a Illustrator and trying to imagine how you would react matches it what you really want? curestudio.com

Every new project requires a number of fresh ideas. Inspiration is the best of objects that completely independent, so look of the project outside of the obvious streets.
I Doodle first everything, what comes to mind, no matter how stupid it may be. I try to get the simplistic quality and spontaneity of these first drawings. I use reference material, especially personal photographs if necessary.
Often the response good response to a short can bear the strongest ideas even if they are unconventional. It is important to ensure that your integrity is compromised not to negotiate this kind of freedom with customers.
Wolf by Stefanie Haines
Record your experiences: photography is an important part of the creative process, and an opportunity unique obtain reference material without copyright provide.
I find inspiration everywhere - in the fashion illustration, portrait painting, animation, photography, nature, old books, the work of contemporary illustrators and old masters. Look not to your own relevant disciplines.
It is important to experiment and have fun with your work while retaining control over the piece. Create your own library of textures, to.
Too many creative is placing greater emphasis on the Internet for inspiration. I encourage every Illustrator and her personal experience to explore their own world.

When working with shadow, try playing with different types of gradient or blending modes for the best possible shading effect.
Uberra by Radim Malinic
I work solidly in greyscale until the composition is finalised. If I start thinking about colour too early it can limit my creativity.
Expand your software knowledge with tips and tools from other creative disciplines, such as retouching or 3D modelling. This can not only provide a quick remedy for problems, but will also give a new angle to your work.
When using the Pen tool in Illustrator, you should always try to reduce the number of anchor points to the bare minimum for the smoothest curves. However, it isn’t always obvious which points are redundant and so it often pays to use the Simplify dialog (Object > Path > Simplify…) and adjust accordingly.
On the other hand, you might have drawn a very simple sketch and want to add more points for greater manipulation. Then try Object > Path > Add Anchor Points. This will add a new anchor point after every existing anchor point of the selected path.

To evoke the look and feel of paint in Photoshop, open the Brushes palette and check Color Dynamics. Select the pen pressure option to control foreground/background jitter, and then go for complementary foreground and background colours. Used subtly, this can create a natural effect of paint mixed on paper.
Keep experimenting for fun whenever you can – new processes that you stumble across are the gold that you turn to when the pressure’s on with a deadline.
