The lower end point of the line supposed to start from the center of the roulette wheel. That means we have to divide 360 degrees (the whole circle) with 37.įrom the Tool Panel grab the Line Tool (/) and create a vertical line as it shown on the picture below. If you take a look at any roulette wheel you will notice that the middle part has been divided to 37 small number pockets.
In this step we will have to do some math in order to complete the middle part of the roulette wheel. Then you can make big and small shape and color adjusting. When the Roulette is finished you’ll be able to see the whole design more clearly. If you are not quite satisfied with the result don’t try to adjust it right away. We will apply golden gradient to other circles. Grab the Gradient Tool (G) from the Tool Panel and drag the brown gradient as it shown on the picture below.Īpply the same radial gradient to the second smaller circle.Īnd a linear gradient to the fourth smaller circle. We will start with brown radial gradient. In the next step we will make sure to apply nice color gradients.īrown and golden gradient will help us to create a nice illusion of a wooden roulette with golden details. You should end up with something like this. To create them we will duplicate (Ctrl / Cmd + C, Ctrl / Cmd + F) the one we already have and simple scale them down by using uniform scale (Object > Transform > Scale). It will allow you to draw a proportional circle. Just hold the Shift key on the keyboard during circle drawing. Select it in the Tool Panel and make sure to draw a proper circle. All we have to do is to use few basic Adobe Illustrator Tools and some nice colors and gradients in order to create an eye catchy illustration. Creation process is actually very simple.
Well, today we will be learning how to create a nice vector illustration of the roulette wheel. All over the internet you can see dices, poker chips, roulettes, coins, playing cards and other similar elements for gambling advertising.
