Utena Femanon !.y3ZTWn5hU
One of my first vectors /w/. I finished Utena recently so I thought a Utena vector would be a nice change.

Should I make more? y/n? (Criticisim would also be appreciated too!)

I offer this only as constructive criticism...

Many of the lines lack smoothness. This is most likely due to one of three things. Either you aren't using the right tool, you aren't aware of the full potential of the correct tool, or you tried too hard to make it look like the exactly original. What program did you use? I might be able to point you in the right direction as long as it's not the later.

Secondly, the background in the lower left corner doesn't appear to be vectored. It looks like an overlay of the resized original image. Do *yourself* a favor and don't leave in stuff like that. The obvious pixelation catches the eye and detracts from the rest of the image.

There are some other things I could comment on but you should try to work on those two things for now. Vectoring just takes time and practice. You should see my first vector. There were so many noob mistakes that I never posted it. :-P

First of all, what program are you using? The lines aren't smooth. They're pixelly which defeats the purpose.

You haven't filled in the colors in a lot of places, highlighted in green. There are other places you did not completely fill in the colors, leaving parts of your blown up image in view. This is especially prevalent around your lines.

Your colors for lines are also all over the place. It would help to see the original screenshot in this case.

It also seems like you blew up your original image. Do not blow up your original image to vector. Zoom in to see the details, you can make it bigger later after you're finished.

Unless you've vectored the background, you should save it as a transparent .png without a background.

This looks more like you painted over the screenshot than a vector. If you don't have a vector program try Inkscape, it's free.

Jeez Louise, what program and what methods did you use? Honestly, I'm not sure how it would be possible to get this even if you used Paint.

First, find some anime vectoring tutorials and read them. Whatever methods you're using are quite incorrect, so you can't vector if you don't even know how to do it. Tutorials are really a HUGE help and also provide valuable tips and tricks.

2.5 MB would be a decent size for a decent high res PNG vector (not that this is one). Saving as a JPEG would be a stupid move. L2filetype.
