For the class project, you’ll put your newly learned skills into practice by creating a unique furry cat illustration using Adobe Illustrator. Applying the fur effects techniques you’ve mastered, you'll design your own character from scratch.

Start by sketching out the basic shape of your cat, then use tools like the Blend Tool and Roughen Effects to create the fur effect. Experiment with different strokes, colors, and effects to make the fur look as realistic or stylized as you want. The goal is to use the techniques taught throughout the course to bring your character to life with fur that’s full of texture, dimension, and personality.

When you’re done, share your final illustration in the class gallery! This is a great opportunity to showcase your creativity and get feedback from your fellow students.
