Really wanted to get a people vector done and used a picture of my gf as a starting point. Feel i have done well for a fairly new kind of art approach and can't wait to get some tips, advice, and suggestions so i can either edit or use on my next piece. cheers http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/5969/fi...ctorcopybv8.png |

The hair could use some more layers/shadows. It's quite good though, keep it up

I agree with Black Widow. The skin, and the hair in particular could do with more tone variation. If you try and break the shades of the skin down, you should end up with a more appealing vector like this. |

Yeah I know exactly what you mean, that's why I haven't uploaded this to DA yet because I haven't finished with it quite yet lol. I've been meaning to add more detail into the skin and hair but I just can't find where to start and get too scared of just turning it into a disaster haha! Getting the colours and shading is so important, yet so difficult. Thanks for the comments! |

I have the exact same problem. I have a half finished vexel much like yours that I haven't taken the time to complete for close to a year now. These take an incredible amount of time and skill to do properly... |

Never settle for a half measure.

Great work, I do take into consideration the amount of time and effort it takes to make one of these. I started but quit an hour later . This piece is actually pretty good, however, I agree with Black Widow. |
