Merry Christmas and Happy New Year my friends.
Enjoy!

good looking tutorial, i never actually got around to finishing mine

under18carbon In reply to aethiself [2004-12-27 03:32:11 +0000 UTC]

This is actually my third attempt at a tutorial, I stopped the first two...

I guess you shouldn't give up, just stick to your plan and you should be able to pull it off! I did the Lambo in about 3-5 days time only, and I'd say thats quick because normally i'm a lazy arse and I only complete one car in WEEKS.

aethiself In reply to under18carbon [2004-12-28 08:56:45 +0000 UTC]

yeah, i know what you mean
some time i whip out pictures one after the next, but then othertimes it takes forever to finish the one that I am working on (like now )

sargeras In reply to ??? [2004-12-25 05:29:14 +0000 UTC]

mmm, pretty informative tutorial sir. i dont do things at all like that, but i want to give the whole line art then color thing a try sometime. i usually kinda skip that stage, but i do start out with big shapes similar to your first big outline, then i make it invisible and start drawing the other shades on top of it.

under18carbon In reply to sargeras [2004-12-27 03:22:37 +0000 UTC]

Oh, sounds like something interesting. To each their own

Make a tut so I can see how you work with your vectors

yarr. maybe ill remember to take some shots next time i start working on something. but who knows when that'll be. i had a bunch of work in progress stuff in my scraps already that are kinda like an informal tutorial. hopefully i didnt delete em all.

ernestoguevara In reply to ??? [2004-12-24 17:13:00 +0000 UTC]

this is funny (just cause the little music notes pointing out what ur listening to.

i find it weird because all the vectors i do have max 3 layers.

i liek the outline thing, im gonna give that a try on my nxt vectors, im the type of person who colours as i go

very good tut. though. the ones i found online when i needed to learn how to vector were crap.

under18carbon In reply to ernestoguevara [2004-12-27 03:13:08 +0000 UTC]

Ohh, the colour-as-I-go person.

Hehe.

I haven't found a good tutorial that really explained what I wanted to learn, but there are some on About.com (try searching), they have good stuff up there.
