In the second half of our Illustrator induction, we were shown how to trace round an original image in the program to see how the pen tool would work when creating/ designing our own characters. Despite the fact that I found the program a little confusing at first, after spending time tracing half of the image, I started to get a VERY basic understanding of the different properties of the pen tool.
Although I really like the smoothness of the end result and I can see how this program could be a really useful tool for animation, I feel as though I would still lean more towards Photoshop. However, having seen what this program is capable of, I will definitely return to Illustrator and practice with it.
