So here is my project! Keep in mind you guys don't have to be as detailed as mine, but if you can, I'd love to see your process and your thoughts throughout. 

Reference Pins:
I've really been inspired by so many of my favourite artists who have been making this small soft enamel pins. So I've got a pretty good reference board for you all to look at. Feel free to use any of mine for your references too! Whatever inspires you!

Rough Sketches:
Here are my rough sketches for both of my pin designs. As you can see, I'm not interested in having perfect sketches to base my designs off of. I'm just looking to get down enough information that I can remember what I was thinking when I drew it. Just enough to get the idea across.

Of course, this is my approach when I know I'm making perfect vector versions of my artwork. For a lot of my illustrations I actually draw them out as perfectly as I can before I bring them into illustrator. I often even want them to stay hand drawn looking rather than perfect vector shapes. It just depends on the look you are after.

My Final Pin:
These are my final pin I sent to produce. I was really happy with how it turned out. 

 

My Real Pins:
Since I originally released this class I've produced a bunch of pins that I sell through my Etsy shop. Although many of these have sold out and been locked away in the Disney vault since.

That's it!

Of course, you can follow me on all social media @CrusoeDesignCo, but my main channels are currently Instagram and YouTube.

Thanks!
