This Vector Plus Tutorial is Filled with Creative Instruction and Tips

I believe the most successful posters rely on a strong initial vision coupled with good decision-making throughout the artistic process. As you'll see throughout this tutorial, the final image differs from the preliminary sketches in many ways, but it still retains the spirit and tone that i was aiming for. During this tutorial, I'll walk you through my creative process and share some of my favorite Adobe Illustrator tips and tools as I create a poster for that one and only moon-cursed Japanese lycanthrope - the "Samurai Werewolf!"

Graphic Design Week

To celebrate the launch of GraphicRiver's new Print Design Templates category we're putting on a whole week of graphic design tutorials on both Psdtuts+ and Vectortuts+. The new category means you can now sell your design work to make extra cash On the flip side if you're coming up short on inspiration, you can get a kickstart by grabbing a Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign template via GraphicRiver.
