realistic illustration|quay sunglasses

design process

Using Adobe Illustrator I recreated a pair of Quay sunglasses. Utilizing the pen tool I created lines to shape the sunglasses frame, tortoise shell pattern, lenses and arms. Using varying degrees of opacity I was able to recreate the plastic frames and pattern. The eyedropper tool was handy in achieving color accuracy from the original photo. The most challenging part was the gold band across the top which was achieved with lighter to darker line shapes layered on top of a gold gradient. The Quay branding on lens is Arial regular 14 pt typeface placed on a curved path.
