Soccer player!

We used a tutorial to create a basketball player. But, because I am a rebel I decided that I wanted to create a Soccer player instead. :)

To create this we used Adobe Illustrator and this website tutorial for simple shapes.

The tools I used varied greatly.

First off, we used the ellipse and square tools to create the face.
 Often we used the shape builder tool (which I personally really enjoy) to cute shapes into the shape you want.
There was also a spiral tool for the hair that came from the line tools. We densed up the line by using the width tool.
Another useful tool was the reflect tool which allowed you to flip the image how you needed it to look. :)
Ooh! And the distort tool allowed you to reshape a object to look how you want them too.
Lastly, I used the transparency tool to create shadows and highlights.
