do you have a recommended method for vector tracing? Ive got Photoshop and Fireworks, just wondering if there are any tricks to know before I stumble aimlessly around trying to figure it out on my own.

In return, here's Asuka

I can't teach you. I can only tell which progam is good for vector graphic trace.

Adobe Illustrator is made for vector graphic. I always use Illustrator to make vectors but I'm beginner as you're :P My works are not yet perfect.

I recommend Adobe Illustrator aswell, it's considered the best vectoring program right now.
Actually, the best way to work in vectors is probably tracing it in Illustrator and colouring in Photoshop, where you can make shadows.
>> Móci
I also try some vector graphic, but it's not simple. Or i'm so noob. XD
My first vector is my company logo's, and it was a little bitty...
But i don't give up, and someday make a good anime vector. :D

Once you understand how to work with the pen tool, it'll be simple. :) Took me a while, too.

>>201826
Easy but needs alot work to look good. I don't have that patient :P
>> Anonymous
i m in the middle of tracing the lines on my vector as well, should do the colors first in illustrator and touch it up in photoshop ? or do i do all the coloring in ps ?
>> anonymous can't fail
I didn't use photoshop for colouring it's for me easier in that way. I don't get it how it helps me, I've only suffered more problems.

Very appreciated! There's not nearly enough material with this character, especially high resolution.
>> Móci
>>201834
You're right. Unfortunately, can't find any good wallies from this character in the net. Why? I don't get it... :(
I ordered the dvd (special edition), and i hope find something good picture on the extra section.
If i success, i post it immediately. :D

I have a question that never seems to be addressed in these threads.

I understand most folks use the pen tool. But what do you use to draw with, I mean physically? A laser-mouse, a tablet, etc?
>> anonymous can't fail
>>201848
Drawing table would be nice if I own one. I've got only laser mouse G5 (2k dbi). It's good enough I think :) and of course a steelpad.

Yeap, first in illustrator, then improvements in photoshop.

>>201832
Used the magic wand? That's the best way. Magic wand -> modify -> expand 1 -> edit -> fill (or shift + f5) -> choose color.

>>201848
Mouse. Must get the money for a tablet soon, though.
>> Anonymous
>>201848
Mouse, unknown DPI. It wasn't worth much, but it's wireless, and I can competently play Counter-Strike and do CAD with it.
My hand isn't very steady with a pencil, so I tend to shy away from my tablet unless it's absolutely necessary.
That being said, anybody know of a utility that can muck with the mouse sensitivity at the touch of a button? The mouse I'm using, howerver nice, is built for laptops, so has WICKED speed. Too wicked for my tastes.

that is a fucking kingly vector. carry on.

My next project. It's unfinished and I don't really have a motion to complite this fast so it can take while ;).

As you can see I don't need photoshop for colouring. A lot easier in this way.
>> Móci
WOW thanks!
My favourite picture from Mutio!
Please make a little bit faster... :3
Mutio 4ever!!!!!!!

newer versions of Illustrator can do soft shadows as well... depnds on the final effect you are looking for...

I believe Fireworks is a vector drawing app as well but no where near as good as Illustrator...

I was just wondering how I can do shadows with illustrator.. Would u teach me?
>> Anonymous
>>202721

The basic method is to copy the shape, put it lower in the stack, and then just make it dark colored. This is pretty obvious and amateurish, so the next step (other than just winging it) is to do that and screw with gradients in magical ways.

No, I don't actually know how to do this, but that's why I leave it to professionals.

Check the /wg/, anonymus can't fail. ;)
I posted some good water themed pics.
