Beautiful Landscape Vector Illustration – (Landscape Part 2)

Easy tutorial to make beautiful landscape in adobe illustrator. This is an another illustrator tutorial of creating landscape mountains. Using pen tool to create mountain and gradient for sky, some stars and a sun created with the help of gradient circle complete the graphic. Beautiful vibrant color shade in mountain reflect the depth and you can makes it within some basic and easy steps.

Steps to create – Beautiful Landscape Wallpaper

Create a box, fill gradient & we use it as sky.

Mountain Shapes: I use brush tool to draw mountain lines.

First mountain line and very back one.

Second Mountain line.

Third Mountain line.

Fourth Mountain line.

Sixth line.

Now we start creating box with these shapes, Create a box above

Select box and first mountain shape, cut out below part with “Shape builder tool”. Remove upper one and rest of the extra shapes if created

Do the same process with 2nd mountain line also.

Now for this third shape, here i use “Pen tool”, joint edges of this line and create a shape

Fill color.

Work on rest of the shapes. You can use both methods, use “pen tool” or create a box above shape and use “Shape builder tool“

Fill differnt colors in every shape, so that we can easily apply color later.

Now create shades for mountains.

Make 2 boxes with different color, and use “Object – Blend options“

Use Specified Steps.

Go to Blend Options if you need to change no. of shade boxes

I use 4 steps, so that it will be total 6, because for 6 mountain shapes.

Select each mountain shape and fill color according to color shades.

Place lighter on back and darker on front.

Create some grass & plants, I try create some random shapes which somehow looks like grass & plants.

Select all grass/plants shapes & fill color, same as the upper layer.

Create a circle & fill yellow & white gradient & move this sun shape behind the mountains

Sun Brightness: Make another circle and fill black & white gradient in Radius.

Use “Screen” from “Transparency Panel”. Move this circle behind the sun. Make Sure Black will be 100% black, otherwise it will not give your proper transparent result.

Stars: Use same brightness circle, make a copy, transform it into very small size, so it will look like a star.

Place it on random place in sky area. I place it manually, but there are some other methods are also available to do it.

I didn’t use gradient in mountains, you can use light and dark gradient on each mountain, it will give more depth to the image, Right and left part needs to little darker because sun is in the centre, rest should be little dark.

I make this Illustrator tutorial with use of some basic tools with basic steps, so that everyone can make that easily, the more we work on the file will give you more better results.

Congratulations You’re Done, It’s ready!
