today I can cry :banzai: because for the 2'5 time in my life I'm damn happy about my vector result :yay:

first time was actually also 1 of the first times doing vectoring. it was with a Karin picture, but the way how I did the vectoring wasn't really good, since it took me over 7 weeks to make the vector :XD: I copied every single thing to the last details, may look good, but the end result still wasn't something I'd be 100% happy about, here's the render I was talking about

the next vector is the 0,5 time I was happy about a vector :XD:
since it didn't looked as good as a vector, but the way I did it became MUCH faster, and using the actual sizes for the first time gave me the chance to use different sizes of brushes which made it vector look better, also my shadowing skills got a little better, the vector was of Mion in a Maid Outfit

and today I made a vector where I'm 85-90% happy about, first time :yay:
the picture I vectored is from an Akira screenshot, this one

did some vectoring today since I've a mountain off stuff to encode, so used my fathers desktop to play some games and later on installed Photoshop, and I checked good-tutorials.com for a few tutorials and I found this tutorial ..::Click::.. ([Only registered and activated users can see links])

I tried it out and noticed it was similar to the way of vectoring that I really want to learn, so tried it out and it's not exactly like it, but learning this will be a huge step forward, so I spend like 2 to 3 hours on the picture and was really happy with the result, which is this

but 1 problem came later on, since I forgot I made the vector on my fathers desktop, so screen setting was different, so when I check it up on my desktop I found out there were some lines showing wrong, tried fixing it but it was only a quick fix since it's already late, probably will fix it better next time but now it's to late, so here's the fix

so what do you think of this kind of vectoring? does it look better then my old ways of vectoring?

Awsome Vectors ^.^
I especially like the Shion Vector ^.^
*note's it wasn't Mion in that scene that was vectored from*

Oh well they are twins anyways ^.^

Those are such lovely vectors for some of your first. *_*
Truly lovely, I wouldn't be able to vector even if my life depended on it.

well, if you check the karin vector up close you can find very n00bish errors (like coloring outside the lines xD )

and Mion/Shion (xD) isn't colored very well (open spots) + the shadow isn't that greatly done...

but vectoring like I did with Akira is harder then I thought... tried vectoring a couple of other pictures like that but it just doesn't go as well as with Akira so I end up leaving them half finished xD
