GDL 1 - 3D Pixel Art

For this assignment you will be following a tutorial to make 3D pixel letters on a decorative background.  The only alteration you should make is to change "vectortuts" to the name of the pixel character you drew last week.

When your letters are complete, bring up your grid to draw your character.  You may create your character using

1. Rectangles and the Pathfinder Palette  or 
2. Snap to Grid and the Pen Tool

When your character is complete, apply the 3D effect to it just as you did to the letters.

GRADING OBJECTIVES:

• Completion of tutorial
• 3D text
• Cloud with gradients
• Sunburst background
• Completion of pixel art character (only use straight lines!)
• Applying 3D effect to pixel character
