Rants on My Symbol

Haha its Saturday and my due is 2 more days. Well this shows my last minute-ism. Reminder to myself : Dont every do last minute work again >_<

Here's my research: According to wiki global warming is the increase in the average measured temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans since the mid-twentieth century, and its projected continuation.

So, well the first think that popped into my mind was pollution and gas mask. Both of em can be related to the global warming issue from my pov.

Here's some image that i browsed through :






Well my symbol is similliair like the images above but with a bit of modifications.

To be honest, Adobe Illustrator is teh pain in teh butt. Seriously, i thought it will be as easy as Adobe Photoshop since i use Photoshop for more than 2 years. I can't even FILL IN THE COLOUR OF MY ARTWORK cause of its retardness. Excuse my language, i'm just too pissed off with myself and coughillustratorcough. Fair enough, this shows my last minute-ism.

I played all kind of tools inside this program to make my symbol such as selection tool, direction selection tool, pen tool(omg i need to master this seriously if i wanna do vector arts), type tool, line segment tool, rectangle tool, rotate tool, reflect tool, zoom tool, and the live paint bucket (<---pain in the butt)

Well i used my past experience on using the Illustrator since I'm quite used to Photoshop. Most of the short cut keys are similliar except for transform. In photoshop its ctrl + t, but in Illustrator, if u press ctrl + t, something else will happen.

I'm pretty pissed off with the colour that i used, which is like 1 colour only!?!?!?!

And the colour is grey. It represents the air that we live in right now, which is something in similliar colour, or maybe it represents the smoke. To be honest, i wanted to put more than 1 colour, but because of my stupidness of doing this assignment at last minute, i easily give up, and was really confused with the paint tool. I do know i need to close the anchor to fill in the colours, but the problem is I CAN'T CLOSE IT :/

I reallly need to work on my attitude regarding this matter. How am I gonna be successful if I'm like this. Practically the word lazy revolves around me :( Hmm the lecturer should know what marks should i get for this assignment.

If only I can use Photoshop for my assignment....

Well, till see ya then. Bye (:
