Vector Magic (Image Generator)

Post by Reise »

Basically what the title says, upload an image and it will vectorize it after a few simple steps. You can even edit the details if you want.

I did a couple of my old drawings for an example:

So, vector some sh1t, OTL.

I dunno, it makes stuff look cartoony/clean I guess. Just something fun to mess around with. Like you can take a bad quality picture and use vectoring to make it sharper or more artsy-fartsy.

AFAIK manually vectoring stuff is difficult, so this generator does it for you.

Agreed.

Manual Vectoring:

Manual vectoring is still the best via Adobe Illustrator/PS. Vector magic is useful though for quick tasks, but manual still beats it.

Look @ the difference before and after.
