well i decided that i'd do a style study on Kenneth Fejer since he's pretty high up there on my hero list. I wanted to see exactly how he does his stuff, and the best way to find out is to do it yourself. So while looking at lots of fejer art, I made this mockup mixing his style with a little bit of my own.
things I learned:
- with Fejer, its all about selout. Almost every element in his art uses lots of selout techniques. and black is used seldom
- bright highlights are usually a no-no in this style, instead, think flat shapes that suggest 3d forms.
- usually, you have a base-colour and a bright-colour for every element. you use those to shade with, and all the other colours go to the outline (which is usually 2 or 3)
- Use simple shapes heavily, and keep it constant throughout the mockup (I could have done better at this). This also includes simple patterns
well yeah, thats about it
C+C as usual
