Seriously now, Never Again. Working on a completely gradient mesh'd vector was definitely both difficult and a great leaning curve, but i don't think my brain could withstand another mindf**ck like this for quite a while.
Huge thanks to @Vampluva, @Kamlotton, and all the other chatbros for their support and feedback.

Hey there Clock! =D Well, I already told you how much I like this vector, but Ill do so again =3 You have done a great job of it. I really like the style you used to vector it in, gives it a real "straight from Manga" feel I think. I would have added a bit more highlight/gradients to the back of the coin, just to make it seem more metallic, but overall you have done a great job of this vector. Well done!

many thanks!
The original coin had a whole heap of scribbles on it, that i couldn't make heads or tails of, so thats probably why it looks a little blank. :)
EDIT: i just noticed the joke there. "Heads or tails of". Pun not intended xD

I like this vector :3 the shades and blurring is under control, mostly on the clothes and skin, but i see that you have detalied some parts more than others. The eye is my fave part fade well with the skin, the hairs looks good too, i think adding a bit more of shine would be nice, like the scan, sharp traces helps too, so don't be afraid of using both. keep up!

First glance at the vector and I loved it! I'm drawn to the line work, the colors of her hair and eyes. But it seems I'm not yet used to really smooth meshes in vector art, forgive me. That justifies my liking of the first revision more, raw and unblurred as it is. strange eh? Great work, Clock :)

the vector has this intensity that seems to draw you into it. I certainly love the way she staring at us (so intense) and the coloration of the whole vector (very smooth and interesting). you did a great job varying the lines from thin to not very thick. I absolutely love her hair (love the color and the length). you have done an excellent jon on handling the folds and dimensions of her clothing. excellent work.

I shall fave this as I always like the gradients on this whenever I see the image. Only thing I think it could use is the highlights in the hair the original scan had.
Quick note in case you were unaware: If you want to keep your .ai file size down and only plan on using the file with AI (not sure how much it'll help with the image embedded instead of linked), disable PDF compatibility on the dialog box when saving a new file.

Many thanks scorp!
I was unaware of the PDF trick, thanks for pointing it out! I'll see if it has any effect on my current one, it's getting pretty big as well.
