anyway, short story shorter, i made this because i needed an excuse to procrastinate on a couple of school nights. and i wanted to practice vectoring since i haven't taken a step forward in ages. besides, in occasional doses, craziness is good for you!
i learned that close-ups don't go exceptionally well with my vectoring style. i couldn't vector the hair the way i normally do due to how thick the majority of strands must be. stiff hair? another problem. and i should seriously plan out a face before sticking everything in. *kicks myself* except for the iris, i vectored and drew everything at 100%. no zoom. LOL! i did that because i didn't want to spend most of my time scrolling all over the place. i had to scroll around enough at 100% as it was.
thank yous go to the brilliant salt (aka saku) and the evil sir (aka dan). their critical support was invaluable! :3 and for those who bother to take the time to comment/fav, thank you as well.
