nimagraven Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Well, I've been "bigging" it up for a while, and I've been working on it for a while, so I bring you your Christmas present! Basically, I fell in love with this picture: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/nim...n/Alexhot-1.jpg And I thought, why not trace it and "immortalise" it forever: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/nim...on-complete.jpg So there you go. That's what I've been working on. I hope you like it... On a quick note, yes the hair sucks and yes the face sucks. I was in a rush near the end and if I had more time I would have fixed it up properly... However, now that you've seen it, I may work on that in my spare time and post a better version later on.. . Merry Christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaye Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Oh, is that a vector? It's cute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimagraven Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 Yeah, its a vector, I did it in Illustrator.. Just traced over the original photograph. I'm never brave enough to try a gradient mesh for hair, but I believe it's pretty good.. I'm gonna have to revisit definitely at some point .

I have a love/hate relationship with that program, personally. I have fallen in love with that pic of him as well. Hmm.. this was the second best gift to having Alex crammed down my chimeny. But as I said earlier... I think APSA might get him stuck in there... Then that wouldn't be good... especially the way this family keeps lightign the fires... Im just roasting in here today... jeeze.

If I ever get the time, then sure!! QUOTE Yeah it looked like you did it in Illustrator. I have a love/hate relationship with that program, personally. I hate the way it has to do everything the opposite way to Photoshop.. And considering I spend 90% of my life in Photoshop these days, it's pretty confusing haha.
