vectoring shapes is simple once you know your way around the pen tool. It gets super hard when it comes to color shade especially to real life pictures.

You did a good job on this. I'd love to see the final product.

not using photoshop (though i do have it).


im using Inkscape which is much better for making vectors. it's somewhat buggy, but it's still a work in progress (opensource too i think)


Edit: just did something that may have messed it up (meaning no eyes :( )

If you are going to practice I think you should do as kthnxbai says and vector some still life. You might as well do a trial and error thing with those rather then vectoring an anime piece ( a cartoon) because it will teach you pick the right hues of colours rather then picking a solid colour all the way through like you're doing now.

Good job with this piece how ever, keep it up.

Vector is a vector.
true, but recreating an already made vector isnt all that good for practice :)
its way too easy and doesnt require all that time or thinking
when u have to trace already made one.
Making something from real stuff needs thinking process, gives u ideas about the skin tones and shades, more exp.

If your serious about this type of art, I highly suggest a pen mat. They can be expensive, but the difference is night and day. If any of you remember my vector art from god knows how long ago, I used a pen to vector over my own sketches. bluey-hui.deviantart.com <- the first 3
