So far the Psdtuts+ Design Challenges have been a great way for many artists to experiment, improve their technique, and share advice with others. This month we want you to continue that great work by creating a Typographic Illustration. Be sure to share your illustrations with us on Google+
What is a Design Challenge?
Each month, we will challenge you to put your Photoshop skills to the test by creating art inspired by that month’s theme. At the end of each challenge, we may feature your submissions on our website and possibly discuss them in a Google+ Hangout.
This Month’s Challenge
This month we want you to create a Typographic Illustration. Draw inspiration from the lyrics of your favorite song or perhaps a motivational quote you love best. Feel free to use the quote of your choice, as long as it isn’t offensive or derogatory in nature. Check out the illustrations below for inspiration!
