Whoa, and here I thouhght I won't make it on time!
I present to you, my latest creation and my first vector in Ai, my Vecta Desu #14 entry - Suzuka Amane, the Part-Time Warrior!
In this entry I used gradient mesh for the first time, it's also my first finished vector made in Adobe Illustrator.
Scan used for this vector:
And as I love such stuff, I'll encourage others to post it by posting it myself. Last time I had progress animation, sorry but no animation this time, instead, I got net-view for your viewing pleasure!
LINK turned it to a link as it was too big :P
Also, check out my other vector!
El-Psy-Congroo!

i like it, nice lines and looks good overall, loving the color too! but i still think there are missing shadows in the front part of the hair, this can be improved imo (i know the artist didnt added too, but you always can make this better, because the other parts of the hair looks so nice and detailed and the front is like meh)
mini rushed example xD : http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/devisshi/example.jpg
of course is an opinion if u want u cant do anything ^^
Anyway GRATS! for your work aaaand gambatte in VD. ill give u a chocolate for this work =D

Well, this might look better, but I'm a fan of making it as similar to original as possible
The only exception here was orange tint that I removed to ease the job for anyone that will decide to wall it (I'd love it if someone used it btw :P)
and changed one small detail for some reasons, noone noticed that so far anyway xD
thanks for chocolate ;)

Very nice job on her jacket! Nice blend of colors there. :) You probably could have used more meshes in her hair though - the cloudy/blurred shape for the tan shine on her bangs stands out too much. You could try an opacity mask over it to erase some of its top and bottom so it blends better into her hair.

Initially I wasn't going to use mesh at all, then I used one tiny in her hair and when I noticed I have lots of free time I decided to try with mesh more :P
I'll try more meshing next time I vector something, it seems to be fun ;)

The coloring on the clothing and shading on the hair is awesome, especially considering it's all mesh. Hope to see a textured version in a wallpaper some times ;3

Excellent work with the meshes. And those eyes, man, you outdid yourself. That net-view shows your hard work. +fav

I super love the vector.

When i saw the scan weeks ago i thought her eyes are so powerful and charming and a good point over this picture. And this seems to be very similir to the original but her eyes feels a bit flat, and comparing with the scan the hair need more work, i guess i can see more shades on it. Honestly is a nice work but is not your best, i know you can do a better work over her. Her clothes is the most better thing on this vector, is nice, Keep up.

Eyes... yeah... At first they turned out really nice, but then, I forgot to save xD and experienced Ai crash >.> second time turned out a bit worse :/
I don't really think hair got more shades too, esspecially main part of it was rather simplified a bit imo :P
Thanks for your comment!

You have some really beautiful vectors here. The color blending work in her jacket and hair in this particular piece is especially well done. Really nice work.
