Hi, I'm currently trying my hand at vectoring and I hope that I can hear your comments on my work so far. :D Any criticism is appreciated so I can better my work.

Here's where I based my vector on:

Beel scan

and here's where I'm currently at.

WIP

Just at the head right now. Please feel free to post any suggestions and comments :D Thanks! :3

It appears to me that you're stroking the lines with a brush. While this is ok for the tower and pacifier to have uniform lines, it is not so good for his face. The better way is to make shapes with the pen tool. You want to avoid stroking organic things because the tips leave awkward blunt ends - noticeable on the bangs and cheeks. Also, stroking with a brush doesn't result in a vector because the brush stokes are rasterized - you can't enlarge or transform your shapes like you can with a true vector.

Hi, Miss Nysha! I've read your guide and WOW :) I'm trying to follow all your tips on vectoring but i'm kinda finding it hard. O.o Thanks for the comments by the way, I actually am not stroking the lines for the face. I think it just seems like it cause i still can't get the right angles using the pen tool :) I used the strokes for the "eiffel tower" on beel's head though. I still believe in practice makes perfect. hahaha! thanks again :D
