Hello everyone!

whew! i just finished vectoring a character form memories off #5, i don't know his name, so sad.><
i took a scree shot of the video from the movie,
here it is:



i want to make a wall that gives a lonely theme,
i would like to hear your comments to my vectored char, and suggestions are always welcomce^^

and also i would be glad to hear suggetions for the bg of this wall, im plannig to vector the bg. and is my vector good for my planned wall?

thanks for the time checking this out!^^
im not that good in vectoring coz its my first time.^^ and i would be glad to learn form you all.^^

edit:

i just realized that the character became thin when i got the vector result, and one yuki also noticed it. i had a mistake in the resizing of the original image, so i resized the vectored character, i hope its ok now.

here is the vectored char(ready for walling):



did the quality of the image decreased?

Thats cool!! XD
you can make wallpaper from it

Really, it's ready? because his hair is still missing some lines and there are chunks of shadow that aren't colored in yet. o_O i've checked both links so yeah, i see some things with his hair that are still unfinished. as well, try to make all the highlights one color and make sure they all have pointy ends. having rounded ends or ends that don't look like a regular sort of crescent (or connected crescent) makes your work look a bit rough.

as well, his eyebrow looks see through. if you are going to have his eyebrow visible like in the original screenshot, then make it opaque. a see through eyebrow is just weird. xP in addition to that, you might want to touch up the darkest shadings of his skin, the parts that's shaded by his hair. I think you probably eyedropper tool-ed the color, but it'd look more natural if that color was more peachy.

it's not a bad first attempt. some shapes are a bit funny (i remember a couple around his ear area...and some of the highlights have strange shapes) and not all of the divisions between colors as well done but it's a good first step. and you'll improve with more practice. =] as for a background, do something lonely...without anybody there. it could be a green tree with blue sky...or autumn...or sunset. something like that.

For the starter is good, but you miss something, I think it will look better if you do the outlining for the hairs. And one more thing, don't make the eyebrows visible through the hairs, it looks a little bit strange for me.

Good Luck :d

Great work! Pretty good for a first go. I think you could fix the vector just a bit more. Here are a few suggestions:
- add outlines to the hair (looks weird without it)
- his eyebrows are see through, make it darker
- the light black color on his hair should be just a bit darker
- white shadows on his hair should be pointier (they're round at the moment)
- you missed some white shadows on his ear + one under his eye + white on nose

For the background... hmmm... you could put a night sky with the moon maybe? You could even add stars and comets, etc. Or maybe just autumn leaves falling from a tree behind him.

Hope this helps^^ Good luck with your wallpaper too! XD

Thanky you so much for the comments and suggestions!^^

i made the finishing touches for the vector, i hope it better now, im a bit in a hurry today coz i just missed my first class in the afternoon, this would be quick.

yes i made the eyebrow opaque like what almost everybody was sayin, i made a mistake making the layer 20%. YAy! and then i did the outlining of the hair, and adjusted the highlights of the hair. and also with the hair shadows making it sharp at the endges. and also i added the light places in the face.

thank you so much for the time!^^ so happy you helped me^^

if there are anything about this vector, any additions or subtrations, any mathematics. LOL i would be really glad to hear it. thank you^^

edit:

oh no! im so careless! i forgot about the light shade in the node. >< so i edit this again and added it in the vector, that part was the only change. hehe, thanks for everyone!

here is the changed and better version (i think)LOL^^ edited with addition of the light part of the nose.LOL



thank you!^^

*rushes off! * WHOOSH! *im gonna miss my last subject for class!

I'm really sorry for being so late > <
Anyway, this is what I think....
Your outline for the hair are too thick and too black?? It's just that I can see the outline clearly. Very clear if I may say. You have to lessen it a bit. *Check out the others* Shadows and other things....
Oh, about his eye-level, his hair, umm... I think it's a bit strange for me. Is it a shadow? If yes, I think it's the brown color is too thick. And there's something wrong with his hair.
Oh, it's really hard to explain it. Wait up a second. I'll circle it out for you.

Adding up : This is the picture.


You see, the first circle from the left? I think you have to work on it a bit more.
Sorry If I can't give you much suggestion.
Good luck for the vector!! XD XD You're doing great for your first vector ^^

Warm Regards, Yuki

Okie! sorry for the late update fellas, i was kinda busy but here i am, this is the updated vectored character, im still thinking about the bg... im a little confused on how to do it, but well... ill try my best! for me this is my final touch of the character, ready for walling.. what do you think?

here is it:


thank you so much for the time! suggestions and comments are always welcome.^^

Dude i wish i could do that but i dont even know what vectors are :lol::lol::lol:

Hum for a first vector it is quite nice but need some improvement
look at the lineart around his hair it needs more shape
about the color, i dunno why there are so many parts in gray color for a shadow it is quite strange

Sorry but what's linear art? im not that good about technicalities so sorry. what part of the hair? oww and the gray? like in the face? its the shadow of the hair. like in the screen shot.^^

Now that you tell me about the grey part i just going look the scan and it looks quite strange, i wonder if you take when it move look carefully his hair it seems to be double
in fact the lineart is line in general black around your character and ,make details

This looks a lot more like a screencap than a wallpaper. it is very nice for a first vector, and im not a huge fan of just a profile view of the characters head in a wallpaper, but I think you could pull it off with more work =)
