Concept Design: From Abstraction to Production
Today, The Gnomon Workshop announces the addition of a new concept design tutorial to our library. In this lesson, concept designer Aaron Limonick shows off his design tricks in Concept Design: From Abstraction to Production. Aaron starts with a simple ink blot image, cropping a portion of it to generate the foundation composition for his design. Using this technique, he is able to generate the basis for an image that he would probably not have imagined if he were to start the design from a blank page.
