Digital manipulation - Final outcome 1/4 ( Pepsi bottle illustration )

Here I have created a illustrations of a plastic drinks bottle that has used a mixture of fineliners and pro markers. When i have used the pro markers, I havent blended in any of the colours because i thought using a lighter colour to fill in the illustrations, and using a bold dark colour to point out certain sections of the bottle, gives the illustrations a very retro comic book like effects. I think it works very well together. I like how the colours almost make the drink look like it is a vanilla and chocolate flavoured drink, when in actual fact it is pepsi.

Here is my illustration of the pepsi bottle and this is what it looked like after I had scanned it in but before i made any digital changes to.

Here I have duplicated the image of the pepsi bottle 6 times to create 1 quater of a circle. I will be creating the full circle to create a pattern of the illustration.

For this section of digital I havent really edited it hugely, all I have done is duplicate the pattern and place it next to the original image to create a half circle.

Here I reflected the second image and placed it next to the original so it creates the upper half of the circle, I think that the pattern is starting to come together.

Here is the final pattern of the illustration and I really like how the shape doesn't represent a perfect circle, in fact it looks more like a oval then a circle and I think that the fact I have done this gives the pattern more character and much more enjoyable to look at. My only problem with it is that it needs some sort of background and I am thinking of just a plain black to work with the gold like effect from the illustrations.

Now this is the final product of the pattern that i have created and i think the shape works really well and the use of a black background and it really brings out the colour and detail within the illustration. I overall am very pleased with the final outcome of this pattern.
