As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

This one is dedicated to Cat-chan for saying the magic words “it’s easy” when i told her i really liked her vectoring style
It turns out that playing around with shapes is fun =D

I vectored this screenshot of Haruhi just because her expression was really pretty.
So I tried to add as much detail as I could to her eyes so they would look expressive and vivid or else I would totally ruin it

It was all going great until I started her hair.. I really got frustrated with it >.< So it probably doesn’t look that great but I really tried

All feedback is appreciated ^^

Ahhh...shapes...I still remember how many headaches they gave me at the beginning... XD

Anyway, I really like this! The soft tones are really pretty and you did a good job vectoring it with shapes at lower opacity. I'd prefer a bit darker lines for the face and skin but still nice one! :)

I prefer the original better than the vector myself. XD
But really good job! Nice taste! ;P

AH PROMOTION?? OR AM I REALLY RETARDED??
this is gorgeous
although her hair should be a deeper shade of brown with more saturated highlights to get it really golden looking, like her eyes. the whites of her eyes are well done but the right part shouldnt really have a shadow ^^ (if that makes any sense)
the skin is nicely done--but some highlights on the edge of her nose and where her collarbones are would greatly enhance the vexelling i think, same goes for that chair/rug[?] thing in the bg and well the red part just needs more detailing
but either way great job :D

Her eyes are captivating! First I didn't really wanted to download it (I don't use these kind of walls on my desktop), but after seeing the screenshot, this one is a must-have! You did such a gorgeous job on this, I especially like her eyes - they are amazing! Compared to the screenshot, I'm even considering favin it, because you made such a fabulous job, really! I fell in love with her eyes...|(VcV)| emoticon

Impressive. But a few quirks which I noticed:

01. Her lips are not exactly symmetrical. Even at an angle, the peaks of her upper and lower lip should be closely aligned.
02. The highlights/shadow boundaries that runs through her lips area needs to be made more subtle. The transition from lit area to shadow is a sharp jump.

Nice paper

Personally I don't like vectors, but this one is beautiful. Your job with the colors, shadows and textures is fantastic. Her gaze is pretty realistic.

Well done! Congrats!
