Robot Head Design

Robot head design 1

Step 1:

Let's start out by creating a new file. I used a 500×400 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with #004E80 color shade. Now make a new layer set and name it 'Robot Head'. Then in a new layer draw an ellipse with #87FFFF color shade and 67 x 44 px dimensions.

Checklist

Remember, if designing for print, set your workspace to 300dpi and at actual size to be used, or larger. Many people use higher resolutions, 600dpi for instance, but this is not necessary, and will not improve the final print quality.

If designing just for the web, then a 72dpi workspace is fine.

Another thing to consider - if designing for print, then make sure 'Mode' is set for CMYK.

Insert > Mode > CMYK

Only use RGB mode if designing for the web.
