Learning from Max Brödel!
One of the exercises in my Illustration Techniques class was to copy a Max Brödel carbon dust illustration. Max Brödel is considered the father of modern medical illustration. By copying his illustration – I learned a lot about different and very effective ways to illustrate various types of tissues. I used an airbrush, masks and paths in Photoshop to reproduce the illustration.
This was a really fun exercise to work on!
