Black Hole Piece: From colored pencil to vector
This vector piece was part of my old portfolio. It was a re-creation of an old colored pencil artwork I had created in school. Very heavy use of Illustrator's built in "photoshop" Effects. I added images explaining the process and each step to creating the nebula in the background (At the end of all those effects, there's a "lighten" blending mode to hide the black and only shine the light of the nebula).
Gradient mesh tool was used on the clouds. Let me know if you have any other questions.
