So this is a really cheeky question; (I need someone to save me the trouble from painstaking 4 days work on this simple little drawing (wish I could slap it together in a few minutes)

Who can throw this little design together for me?... i found the clip on the internet and need it to be my own. You could even put in your own touch of magic :D

Pretty Pleez :)

Simple 1
Lay it out as a PAYED assignment, pay someone to do it for you/your company.

That is the most decent of course.

I can do it, but I charge for my work. If interested, contact me directly via my website, www.canvas.nu

 

SImple 2, if you do it yourself

 

  1. Preset object in tool bar, Rectangel tool, Shape tool to make round edge
  2. Circle Tool
  3. Choose your colours
  4. Add a tool/bject to make the measuring 
  5. Add for glossy effects Rectangle/circle tools in let say white colour? Pick colour of your choice
  6. Now BLEND IT, Use Blend tool

 

Basically this is it.

Good work, you are soon there. The lighting, set the value/slider accordingly, trial and error and you are soon home free. And allthought its actually good to copy out of learning, still dont copy, be inspired instead.

To be a true designer and artist/illustrator ONLY get inspired.

Legally and morally dont copy. If I were you I would make it to look truly as your own image. If you copy straight off the bat, it could actually bee seen as ripp off/stealing copyright, if used commercially/publically. So for that reason alone, and out of respect for the designer/illustrator/artist I would not do it.

So now you know HOW to do this kind of image, so therefore  NOW you do your own thing to it.

Hello;
       There are worst things than stealing but it's way up the list for sure. I THINK that if you live with PRIDE, HONOR AND DIGNITY, that you can hold your head up anywhere and be proud. It doesn't mater how small of a thing it is that you are stealing, "IT'S STILL  STEALING"

My code of conduct is... if you try and sell it, it's piracy.. if you just copy it... it's LIFE! We all start out as little copy cats and then we aspire to be leaders and inspirerers! All are welcome to use my hard work... Stick out tongue

I bought the bits and pieces... the rest I modified and used as a base for a better idea. Ethics is a complicated issue and I'm not a fan of rigidity when it comes to art and inspiration. The boundaries are blury, thank God!

Copy, inspire, create, fuse... limitless combinations ... yay!

But that's just philosophy...

Thanks for the input to all :D
