Chris Dent

Chris Dent does a lot of illustrations that have the common theme of cityscapes and buildings

The image is very busy not just by the people in it but by the amount of lines and the amount of detail that is in the frame. He uses very linear and fairly thin lines when making his drawings and most of them feature cities.

In this image he has put white blurry marks over the black, I think he has tried to make it look like snow and that it suggests its in the winter. There is also a Santa Claus in the foreground which makes me think it is meant to be New York City on Christmas Day.

I really like how busy it is and that  he manages to add depth without using colours. Its mass amount of detail is something that makes this image so good in my eyes.

I like that even though this has been painted he still manages to make a vector illustration. I like how the picture uses block colours but you can still see shading and light areas. I also really like how he hasn't tried to make the image look too realistic and that he hasn't added too much detail

Because of the angle this picture is drawn at it gives the impression that the building is really big and complex.

 Oliver Kugler is a graphic based artist who uses draws a lot using vector tools.
He does line drawings by hand and then goes over them using software like Illustrator. He then adds colour.

By using vectors it prevents the his image from loosing quality. If it was to be scaled up it would not become pixelated and blurry this is because vectors are not pixels and so they can be re scaled at any time.

I really like how he has drawn this picture . I like how he has used a much brighter colour to the object in the middle this instantly draws the viewer to it. By using  different colours for different parts it makes it easier to se the different subjects of the drawing. I like that even though the colours are very flat and of a single bold tone he still manages to create depth with the little shading he uses. i also think the plain colours gives the image a nice look because it complements the mass amount of detail.
