With the development of modern society, the meaning of modern illustration has changed from a narrow concept in the past to a broad concept. "Illustration" is a picture inserted between words in newspapers, magazines, various publications or children's picture books that we usually read, all of which are called "illustrations".
Difference:
1, illustration requires a higher sense of reality, such as animation scene production, biological animal illustration organ production, general scene creation, general character image creation and so on. Generally speaking, illustrations tend to be created in a specific category.
2. Comics have many uses, such as anti-corruption propaganda comics, financial product propaganda comics and love story comics. , including magazines and newspapers. Therefore, comics are more widely used and embodied than illustrations.
3. Illustration is mainly based on painting, with the purpose of appreciation and auxiliary understanding. Most of the same series are single paintings and sets of paintings; Comics pay attention to the content, and the content itself is a work, which can independently express the complete meaning of a thing. The appearance form is basically a multi-frame mirror.

Classification and production of illustrations
1. Photographic illustrations: Most photographic illustrations are made indoors, and the background needs to be manually arranged to set off the main body. If possible, you can use a slide background. Their advantage is that they can meet the requirements of advertising creativity regardless of time, place and climate.
2. Illustration of painting: The most commonly used method of illustration of painting is ink-jet printing, which is a painting method that uses the air transport of air compressor to put pigments into the pen. It is characterized by no brush strokes caused by ordinary painting, natural picture transition and high application value.
3. Three-dimensional illustration: The production method of three-dimensional illustration is: first, make a three-dimensional work according to the advertising creativity, and then make a photo for the poster advertising screen. Poster designers and illustrators not only require good graphic design ability, but also have a solid three-dimensional foundation.

How to draw hand-drawn illustrations? What materials are needed? First, how to draw
1, geometric sketch modeling training.
We should start with geometry such as cube, circle and combination. Only by understanding geometry can we simplify some complicated things and draw them more easily. It is difficult for students to master the shape, proportion and perspective of geometry in the initial stage, and it is easy to draw deformation, which requires a lot of practice and comparative study and revision among students.
2, the study of stick figure.
Similar to comics, it is relatively easy to master. In the teaching process, firstly, the teacher arranges students to draw a simple illustration of characters and send some information about the five senses, head, feet and hands to the students for reference. Secondly, in the process of painting, students find that the hand is a difficult part to draw. Teachers use the knowledge of structure to explain, and use the methods of picture appreciation and painting demonstration to let students understand the structure of joints.
3. Sketch training. Use simple lines to train the characters' scenes and enrich their own library materials. After these basic trainings, figure painting becomes difficult, especially the expression of background or content. Teachers demonstrate and comment one by one, so that students can understand, accept and solve problems faster, and the future design and creation will be much easier, laying a solid foundation for hand-drawn illustrations.
Second, materials.
1. Hand-drawn pen: drawing pencil, mechanical pencil, stylus and signature pen. These pens are the most commonly used tools when drawing the first draft of a design.
2. Drawing instruments: ruler, T-square, curve ruler, tape measure, magnifying ruler, graduated ruler, triangular plate, cutting ruler, universal plotter, compasses, etc. Drawing tools should be accurate, precise and high-quality products, and small errors are good drawing tools.
3. Coloring equipment: palette, tray, pen washing, color label, etc.
4. Hand-painted tools: paper cutters, various art knives, carving knives and adhesive tapes.
Extended data:
Illustration is an art form. As an important visual communication form of modern design, it occupies a specific position in modern design with its intuitive image, true sense of life and beautiful appeal. It is widely used in many fields of modern design, involving cultural activities, social undertakings, commercial activities, film and television culture and so on.
The development of illustration art has a long history. From the world's oldest illustration cave mural to the Japanese folk print ukiyo-e painting in the Edo period, all of them show the development of illustration. Illustrations first developed with the changes of newspapers and books in the early19th century.
Its real golden age began in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. At that time, the illustrations just separated from art works were obviously drawn, and most of the authors engaged in illustrations were professional painters. Later, influenced by the school of abstract expressionism, they turned from concrete to abstract. It was not until the 1970s that illustrations returned to the realistic style.

How to learn to draw by hand using the following methods:
1, which has a certain painting foundation.
You can sign up for classes if you learn hand painting, or you can teach yourself if you don't want to sign up for classes. There are also many free public classes on the Internet, but no matter which way, you must first have a certain painting foundation, that is, perspective, sketch, line, color, composition, scene and so on.
2. Cumulative replication.
With a certain painting foundation, you can do some cumulative copying, which is just a copying exercise of accumulating materials. Accumulation is to store something in your mind so that you can call it at any time when you draw later. Of course, the more essence, the better, the more the better.
Especially in the novice stage, the quantity requirement is more important. Quantitative change can achieve qualitative change. Therefore, for the purpose of accumulation, in order to make the brain store enough content in a certain period of time, it should be based on well-informed and rapid replication.
3. Practice more at ordinary times.
First of all, we should have enough time to do a considerable number of quick hand-drawing exercises. To be willing to work hard, only a certain amount and time can be accumulated in exchange for qualitative improvement. Therefore, when arranging the study plan, we should have quantitative goals and finish the homework of sketching performance regularly and quantitatively. At the same time, we should combine the theory of quick freehand drawing and be diligent in thinking.
Only in this way can we quickly improve the performance of fast freehand brushwork painting, otherwise it can only be empty talk. And repeated training, all the year round, will definitely go to a new level soon. Learning to draw, practice is essential, and movements are very helpful. Taking out some practical exercises every day is a process of self-improvement and consolidation.
