today a quick but cool illustrator tutorial brought to you by Satori graphics
we going to make an illustrator geometric design perfect to
add to a posted PSD mock-up
what is up people welcome back to satori graphics home of graphic design
content right here on YouTube I hope you guys are doing well today and
are you ready for this geometric poster designer illustrator if you do find it
useful remember to subscribe for weekly graphic design uploads right here super
graphics in an e3 documentary straighter select the rectangle shape tool and
cover the canvas with a color we're going for a purple and gold color scheme
for my geometric poster design today you can choose whatever you wish
after you've done that, hit command R or control R to open up your rulers and by using the
rectangle as a guide drag rulers from the sides they go through the exact
center of the shape we can then lock a background so it doesn't get in the way
of our geometric design
if you then write or control-click the background of Illustrator you can also
lock the guides I flick the fillable to a stroke and choose a different color
for the geometric shapes of your design or of the polygon tool and double-click
the background and then type in six hides
position in the center of your guides and increase the stroke weight something
similar to mine here the next part of this illustrator tutorial need to
duplicate the hexagon holding down alt option key on your keyboard place in the
center to make it a smaller and less of a straightway
and the previous one now with the pencil make three lines like I'm doing here
this will be the foundation of our geometric play so design today right
we'll control click the background and hi the guide so they can be annoying we
don't need them right now select all the shapes and then hit command or control G
to group in together using the option key duplicate the group of shapes and
move it above if you select both groups you can align them perfectly like so
now with the top group of shape selected grab the rotate tool here the shortcut
being R on your keyboard carefully move the crosshair icon down to the
intersection of guides and once you're there click over it once and then hold
down the option key and click again you will need to type in sixty degrees of
rotation as it's a hexagon geometric shape and then hit copy we can then hit
command or control D to repeat the process five more times you can toggle
between your guides being hidden or not any stage once you're done select all of
the shapes and group them together as before and duplicate them and resize
them larger
I'm going to lower the opacity to complete the geometric pacer design in
Illustrator you can attack anything else you want if you live in the description
