As a freelance sports and automotive illustrator I am regularly commissioned to drawings of cars – either still, or in motion. In this video, I will break down my illustration process in full – working from a blank canvas, and I’ll take you through the stages of digital drawing in a way that’s perfect for artists of all levels. These techniques can be applied to create any vector drawing of your choice. Either follow along and create this drawing of an F1 car, or create an illustration of your own subject matter!
