Whoo-hoo, progression gallery:


Finally done! biggrin.gif


This is the first time I've done (real) skin without a pallette. How does it look?

Angelina Jolie?

It kind of looks like her. But then again, I'm not so sure.

I personally think the lip colour should either be kept nude or be more on the pink side. Right now it's a bit too orange for my liking.

Oh, and I think one of your layers on the skin is bit on the blue/gray side...I dont' know if you can see it on your monitor. Lalalaalala.

I'm still very much looking forward to the end product! Go Carrie go!

HOLY CRAP! I envy your vector, gah the shading is briliant and the depth of it too everything just looks so realistic. Hah I started to learn how to vector last week and so far it's not turning out sooo great.

Yeah, the hair isn't done as well as I'd like but in the original, the hair was all curly and messy and stuff and I didn't really know what to do. I'll definitely work on hair in the future.

You're really getting the hang of this, Carrie!

I think what you need to work on now is depth. No matter how many layers you use on a vector, if it runs into the thousands...it won't matter if there is no contrast. It will still look like a flat shade of colour. However, when contrast is utilized, your vector will have more depth and dimension, and in turn look more realistic.

Some people think that when the layers of a vector are so uncontrasted that they blend together, then that makes a good vector. Actually, if you have enough layers and detail, a clear-cut distinguishment between the shades is not such a bad thing. I'd personally rather have a wider range of contrast with visible layers than something with less depth.

You're getting consistently better at this, Carrie! I'm looking forward to seeing any of your future work...keep going at it. =)

Yeah, her skin is a little flatish, I'll definitely work on that in the future. Thanks for the awesome suggestion.
