First vexel - Amy Winehouse ^This is not a finished product; I'm just starting and need help. Yes I've read tutorials on this process by searching online, here, on deviantart.com, and vexels.net (cannot post because its closing), however I need the expertise of those who have created a vexel before. Any advice would be appreciated. So I decided to ask those here who have had an on-hands experience with vectoring/vexeling on the basics. I created the basic lineart, base layers, some details that need improvement such as the hair, earrings, and neck down. *I really need help with the layers on the face like techniques that will make her look real (shadow/lighting/etc). I'm a bit lost at the moment and need advice on how to continue/redo the skin - Am I doing ok ay?Changes? Removal? Sucky!!? How do I layer to make the skin appear real? If you are knowledgeable please reply, from one designer to another. ![]() |

I've read about contrast but I fear that I'll make the skin look horrible... really really horrible. I know vexelling is time consuming and I've only just begin.
Thanks for the skin advice. I'm fairly new at this concept so please be patient with me. I've seen other vexels that use lineart but I know that the one that I made makes it less-vexel and more graphic. I'm hoping the contrast tips you gave me will help me improve it. By the way, do you have AIM? ![]() |
