I will give you a detailed analysis of the Illustrator software to share with you the tutorial on how to create a three-dimensional cube after imitating and drawing realistic data.
Tutorial sharing:
1. Use Illustrator to draw a square and two parallelogram and combine them into a small cube. Here we are doing a relatively simple job without looking at perspective.
Select select tool or Type V. On the drawing board, click and drag to include the three quadrants. Release the mouse button and select all the graphs. Press and hold down the Shift key, drag the corner of a stroke to scale down the image proportionally.
2. Use the "selection tool" to remove the selection of the image. Then select the square, press the Alt key, drag the selected image in the dot, and copy the two squares, combine the three squares horizontally. Make sure that the three rectangles are adjacent without overlap.
3. Select select tool or Type V to select all three squares. Press and hold the Alt key to drag the selected graph down and copy the selected graph, the location can be placed during the replication process; the location can be repeated once, and nine small squares form a large positive Square.
Step 1 technical background: use the selection tool to select all images that have been dragged on the drawing board and are in a large stroke, operations on strokes, such as moving, changing width, and height, will apply to all selected images. When you use the selection tool to change the width and height of the image, press Shift to maintain the proportional relationship between width and height. Another way to select multiple images is to first select a chart with the "select tool", then press the Shift key, and click on another image with the "select tool, therefore, both images are selected. You can select multiple images.
4. Use a method similar to the previous step to copy the other two quadrilateral, and use nine quadrilateral to form a large quadrilateral. During replication, the horizontal, vertical, or 45-degree angle can be maintained separately, making it easier to grasp after replication.
5. Use the "selection tool" to select the three big quadrants as a whole. Move them as a whole and combine the three big squares. Pay attention to the relative positions of the top, bottom, and left sides. In this way, we get a good cube.
6 in addition to the three colors shown in the preceding figure, use the color palette function board to select three colors. On the tool Board, select the paint bucket tool or Type K, use the paint bucket tool to color the quadrilateral to obtain the messy cube as shown in the figure.
7. In the previous example, we have introduced some usage of image copy and movement. This example also focuses on the usage of overall copying and moving of multiple images. These usage looks simple, and it will be of great help for us to grasp them well.
Step 4: technical background: when you use the "selection tool" to move and copy images, if the cursor is located in the same horizontal, vertical, or 45-degree direction as the original position, an auxiliary reference line appears on the screen.
In this way, the horizontal, vertical, or 45 degrees angle can be maintained during movement or replication. In step 5, when we combine the three big quadrants, the mouse may not be very sensitive. In this case, we can use the help of the keyboard. By default, the top, bottom, left, and right direction keys are used to move the selected image by one pixel each time.
Okay, the above information is a small part of this software for all the users of Illustrator, the detailed imitation of the rendering of realistic do not disrupt the production of three-dimensional cube tutorial parsing all the content to share, as you can see here, I believe that you are very clear about the production method, so let's make it by yourself according to the small series tutorial.
