Description
A 2D interior architectural rendering produced from my imagination in a vector program called XaraX. One of my older works.**Edit:**
Wow, the only thing that told me I had a DD was the number of comments, so I couldn't figure it out!? Thank you so much, I truly truly appreciate it.
Anyway, a little deeper explenation. This was created all in a vector program, the only 'raster' elements are a texture I placed on the walls and the floor boards at the end, inside the program. I'd highly recommend XaraX, it's a very intuitive program if you have any interest in vector art at all. I can't remember how long it took, but probably off and on for 3+- weeks? No clue how many hours?
a lot have asked for a link to the program, sooo here
XaraX
XaraX1 is the program you'll want to look at there. Download the trial and play with it for a while, very different than Illustrator, but it's been more intuitive for me (I've used both), and it has quite a few innovative tools to allow you out of the bounds of a straight-edged 'vector' look if that's not your thing. But it's NOT for Mac (I use both mac and PC frequently, which is why I know both programs). If you only use mac, get illustrator... after all, it's the artist, not his/her tools.
thanks again everyone for taking the time to comment

I'd never heard of vector art before DA, and I've only seen a couple. This absolutely blows me away at how flawlessly real it looks.. It makes me want to go running around in it.

oh...my... I still cant believe its vector.. I though it was a photography... I mean, besides the lil weird distortion with the lights on that roof-pillar (have no idea what its called in english), the perspective is perfect, and that blurry light atmosphere really adds to the realism
definite fav... i think its my first vector fav

OMG IT'S YOU!!! What's up man? This is an amazing vector! Funny thing, I'm in Illustrator class Right now...it's just Really boring at the moment... blah. Anyway, I'm glad I can say "HEY, I knew that guy beore he got really big!" And congrats on the DD! It was VERY well deserved for something this amazing. Another funny little thing, is that when I was looking through your gallery some time ago, I thought this was a drawing, and I liked the other drawing similar to this more... So I +fav'd that one, but if I had know this was a vector, you'd bet I would have fav'd it then. Well, I guess I can always Fav it now, huh?

If I hadn't read that this was a vector, I don't think I would have known it. In all honesty, this looks like a REAL house. A very clean, shiny, NEW house, but real nonetheless.
You've done an amazing job with textures, and especially with shine and reflexion!

Excellent composition, and the extremely warm, orange color makes it stand out from the rest. The picture is really realistic too - when I first watched at the thumbnail, I thought it was a photograph It's still hard to believe that some parts of it are based on vectors. I like the way the pillars block the view to the left - combined with the almost surreal orange, it adds the little touch of mystery the image needs.

I'm still in doubt if it really is a vector or not. It looks so real, everything! Congratulations on the DD by the way, I'm glad because it did show me a truly outstanding artist to watch
Wonderful warm colours in this piece, the effect of sunset is truly heartwarming on a cold day like this..
