Keiphus Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Vector drawing of two friends of mine... I'm too lazy to edit out my last name so for all you crazy mofos.. go for it... haha... Warning, Big File... ^[Click]^ I'm doing a concentration for my paper portfolio, the thesis was just black and white vectors of all my friends... This is the second in a long series. Hoping to get some better poses and angles in the next ones. I'll post some others ones later, I have a few I did at school as well. Right now, my weak point is patience. I don't feel like spending hours on the hair, so you get what you get... As soon as I find a way to make good hair that is worth the time spent, I will improve it. Working on that aspect right now. :) Any other criticism? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiphus Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 A) I can't draw noses. B) They have big noses. C) The style makes the noses look big. It's one of the three, I shall test A tonight. B I will test when I see them tomorrow. C will be the answer if A and B fail. :lol: One of me... :) Full Version is 3600x2800 No I don't wear lipstick, I'm still playing with different styles of lips, right now these are the best ones I can do. Give me some time. ;) I think the best part of this is the glasses and the collar. I need to work on the necklaces I think... The rest of the shirt is next. Also, didn't spend much time on the face, as I was having a thrill with the awesome look of the glasses (in my opinion). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiphus Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 Thanks for the comments. Long Answer: This is what you would call "Photoshop Vector" I save all the paths so I can edit them later, but it is actually done in photoshop. I prefer it to AI only because these are made for print and the resolution is already at 200 for a 13x18 print. In english, that means that there is no specific need for them to be vector. So, I made them in PS with vector techniques and saved the paths... Short answer: Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tttia Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Well before I looked at the other comments I had something to say about noses, so I guess I will continue to say it :) The vectorish style generally uses patches of color rather than strictly lines to define an area. I think that the main reason the noses stand out is that they are thin lines in contrast to large blocks of tone. Also, the light source seems to come from above but you made no provision for facial shadows. So while the rest of the drawing looks fairly well shadowed the face is lacking a bit of depth. I realize that with just two tones it is a struggle to define the facial features, so this is a challengting type of work. On the hair issue, I actually like large blocks as you have it ,and don't see a problem really. I think if anything some stray hairs from the main block might help. You may want to make the white sheen on the hair go to more of a point near the top, as though it were from overlapping sections of hair. As it is I see no structural reason for it to be such a blunted look. Otherwise the basic face morphology etc. looks fine :) good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
