Making my Second Poster

Many of the elements of my second poster were made with the shape tool.

 

For instance, the buildings were all made using the rectangle tool, the edges of roofs were made with the custom polygon tool to make triangles, and the arched road was made with the ellipse tool.

For the windows in the buildings, I also used the rectangle tool, but made several copies of them to form rows and columns. To align them perfectly, I used the distribute spacing tools to make the space between the squares the same for each.

 

To make the moon, I started by making an ellipsis. After that, I made a smaller one and placed it over the original circle. I used the trim tool to make a cut out of the second circle on the first one. After that, I had to ungroup the two shapes and i was left with a crescent.
