Vector Soda Can and Bottle
Vector Soda Can and Bottle
Description
This was a happy accident. As usual I have about 10 ideas in my head and then play with them until something clicks. Playing with the 3D tool and symbol mapping I came up with a couple fun designs.

The can was a pretty straightforward 3D revolve with a custom symbol I made mapped to the outside. The water drops are from an old tutorial I wrote a while back.

The bottle presented a lot of problems. I had to map separate symbols to the cap, top and label. I then selected invisible geometry so I could lay it over a more transparent copy of the bottle.

This created a huge file that was on the brink of crashing. Illustrator isn't a 3D program but sometimes with a little effort you can get some decent effects out of it.

I might post the source file on my site if anyone wants to use it to learn how it's put together.
