I was getting a bit bored of just blending stuff, so I decided to do something different. After a lot of stuffing up and trying again, I've finally finished my first vector image. :)
:bounce:
I made it into a desktop sized image. click here to see it!!

I also did a second one. click here for it. :)

Those are quite good for your first vectors! However, Padme looks like she's crying in the first one. I don't really like that part of it.

Otherwise, they're beautiful!

That's awesome! Vectors are a really cool effect! :-D I love how her feathery hat turned in the transition.

I'm glad people like them! :)
Oro, (hope you dont mind me calling you that; I cant spell the rest of you name :P) I made them in photoshop cs, using the pen tool. I had an original image, and the just created layer upon layer of different coloured shapes, using the base image as a guide. I think for the first one I ended up with something like 50 layers, cause I kept stuffing it up, but didnt want to delete anything incase I changed my mind, lol.

And Beri, I dont really know the proper definition for 'vector' either, but I'm glad you like them! ;)

very cool! :D I tried to make a vector once, and it didn't work out so well LOL did you find the tutorial from Padme's Wardrobe by any chance? because I know the webmiss of that site (Loleia) does a lot of Natalie Portman/Padme vectors, and she's very good at them! :)

There's no tutorial on Padmes Wardrobe, or the Magic Box, or the Color Box, as far as I can tell. You could ask on the forum but it wouldn't matter since the old one was hacked so now we have to move. :annoyed:
