The "SKI BOOT"

In my third year in University of Limerick I had a module called product design. In this module I had to design a ski boot using software from adobe. I used for the basic design of the boot Adobe Illustrator. This is like using a ruler on a white piece of paper. Here is a brief example:



Now that I had the design of that done I then had to start the shading of the boot. In this its not as simple as just using a marker and colouring in a page it involves taking each section in between the lines and giving it the correct amount of shade.
Throught the mentoring of our lecture Niall Deloughry he was able to show me how to do this technique and after a bit of trial and error I was able to master the technique.

As you can see how it maybe difficult shading in parts of this but when you put your head to it and show some determination you can get anything done.
