About Ryujin Ilustracija
Ryujin je ilustracija inspirisana zmajevskim božanstvom mora iz japanske mitologije. Umetničko delo je stvoreno od nule i sledi minimalistički pristup uz snažan fokus na detalje. Pozadina prikazuje talase inspirisane japanskim motivima koji odražavaju lik. Koncept je najpre skiciran digitalno, zatim su primenjeni vektorski linijski crtež, senčenje i boja, a finalna podešavanja su upotpunila sliku. Ilustracija je odštampana na posterima, čestitkama i majicama. Cilj je bio da se moć lika prenese kroz tradicionalne japanske slike u kombinaciji sa ličnim stilom.
