Design 24 – Map

Folding Map

This week’s challenge comes a little earlier than planned as I am off on my Easter jollies with the hubby & little bear cub tomorrow – woohoo! Whilst printing out the directions (yes the SatNav is broken), I thought that this would make for a great opportunity to try out some 3D illustration.  So I set off on my own little journey of discovery and came up with the image you see.  I really quite like the folded map effect here and I can see how this will be useful should I ever need to visualise how a print based design might need to fold.  I achieved the effect using Illustrator’s 3D Map Art tool.

A short and sweet one this week as I have been rather busy!  Right I’m off to pack… now where did I put my rain coat and brolly?
