Description
LOOK WHAT I FOUND. Hiding in my photobucket!It's me trying out a new style. HOW INTERESTING.
Not really. Anyways. Completely cut out vector look just for shits and giggles and I was bored one day.
Carol and Lauren are mine. AND THEY'RE BOTH BOYS WITH GIRL NAMES DAMNIT.
For a new comic I'm working on (haven't abandoned UL&K so don't ask. yes i'm looking at you =_
You can't tell here, but Lauren's actually DEAD. Spooky.
EDIT: Oh mai, this is not mature content at all. O_O

My sentiments are echoed in nearly all of these comments but there are two things I'd like to add:
1. I have always loved how you accentuate the fingerprint on characters at times. It is most certainly NOT a detail one sees regularly yet everyone has a different one!
2. Stiff Kittens is a VERY GOOD SONG!! Blaqk Audio, yes!

YAY. I'm glad you knew it was a song. And not actually me trying to lie to you about the whereabouts of actual kittens....
And thank you!

It's nice to see somebody else who knows how to use vectors properly. I find a lot of people's vector work looks cheap (or it's probably just another realistic portrait), but these look nice and professional. Great work!

That's some awesome style there! Did you use illustrator? O: I'd love to see more in this fashion- reminds me a little of Spooky-go-round, but probably only because of it's vectorliciousness X)

I knew what you meant! *PSYCHIC*!
I'm glad you dig the style! I did use Illustrator. CS3. And almost blew my own brains out cos they made the gradient option freaking RETARDED in CS3. MY GOD.

aww man. I want a new version of illustrator soooo bad. my old version is like from ten years ago and doesn't even really work properly even by it's primitive standards D: I suppose if I were to experiment with vector art I at least have Flash XD Glad you knew what I meant! X) <3

Oh no! That's no good! Vector is fun though, even though sometimes I don't know how the crazy people get what they get.

love it! Oh God, I'm taking an Illustrator class right now, so I can appreciate how much more complex this is than it looks. Oy I hate doing vector art X_X This is encouraging, tho! So cute!
Ehehehe I love the arrow as Lauren's mouth!!

D: Lol, I'm using a cut paper style for my comic as well. Seems like everyone's doing it these days.
Anyways, bet it's going to be awesome. Can't wait to see.

Haha! Yay comics! I'm not actually using this style for the comic itself. It's too difficult for me. And I'm lazy. So....
Yeah. This is just me putzing around. X3

The art is very fun.

That style kinda reminds me of these Word clip-arts. But in a good way. 8D;; And Illustrator just rocks my socks. I wish I had more time on my hands...
Lauren severely reminds me of FGSFDS while Carol looks as if he wants to beat Lauren with this shiny new cluebat he has got there.
... WHOA HEY, you used gradients. Awesome.

Hahaha!
FGSFDS? I wish I knew what that meant, I'm a loser.
Illustrator is awesome, but CS3 is kinda butt. I mean, the gradient tool is just such a piece of crap. I don't know why they changed it.

chemicalpanic In reply to vert-is-ninja [2008-04-14 21:50:06 +0000 UTC]
FGSFDS is practically the caption of someone pointing up with his index finger and therefore looking as if he or she is going to say something very important. See the images here -> [link] for shining examples.
Oy, they changed it? How? I still have CS2, just got started with gradients (because I'm slow and needed your picture to even get the idea) and I can't think of much they could have been trying to improve. It's all right as soon as you know how to get the handles you don't need to disappear.
