Description *Please Full View*

This is very large, but I did a ton of detailing! THis pic took sooo long, but it was sooo worth it. I really struggled with how to do the wings and the bark texture on the tree. But I'm still continuing with my soft and dark cell shading mixes. I really think it adds to it a lot, but more so in print than on screen. So what does everyone think? I love her and black eyes!

This is really an amazing compared to the program you used. It would be much greater if performed with a more professional software.
Lovely scene anyway .

Thanks I love vector though, what program do you think is better?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Insane-eyeball In reply to clrkrex [2007-11-28 16:38:20 +0000 UTC]

Actually I meant the pic would look better if it were done as a digital painting, with such programs as Photoshop or Painter. Vector can also achieve the same thing, but it takes a lot of time and practice, and another thing is that vector art is not to do such artworks.
Of course the most used vector program nowadays is Adobe Illustrator. Besides, CorelDRAW is also a good choice if you don't like Illustrator.

clrkrex In reply to Insane-eyeball [2007-12-01 23:48:34 +0000 UTC]

I've never used any of those programs and only just now got photoshop, but then my tablet was so old it won't connect with my computer. Now I have to wait and get a new one, which sucks, but I will be probably trying to combine vector and digital painting for a long while until I get comfortable with the new stuff. But I love my vector so much, it gives me the nice sharp color I like.

I like her too!
She's so pretty!
And the wings are so detailed mom!
Not to mention the tree... it's amazing...
I like how the branches behind her are pure black, and the ones in front are more detailed... It adds more depth to the picture! =3
