The Ctrl And The Zee

As an artist working in the digital medium it may seem foolish of me, if just a little old fashined to bring into call and undo; a multiple file save, go back, go back, if I make a mistake, erase and edit, start again. Life and time are not perfect and we learn from our mistakes but we need those chances. So learn to live with, like and learn from errors in what ever you do. And in art doubly so, for it's far more important.

Your artwork is amazing! I wish I had some sort of vectoring program so that I could learn; I have a lot of friends who are good at vectory-stuff, though I'm more of a traditional-media kind of girl (limited to the 2-d media, of course...I like sculpture but hate producing it.) Anyway, I'm returning your "watch"; looking forward to more from you!

Regards,
-Mira

Your work is absolutely amazing. Some pointers on the vectoring would be awesome :)

Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?
:iconlogovend:
I don't really go down the clean tradition route of vectors that most of the people on here do but kinda have a more slap dash experimental approach ...

These are my secrets;

1. I use Xara Xtreme, which really good at transparencies ... you can do elliptical, linear and plasma cloud (plus more) gradient of transparencies ... so you can build the image over lots of shapes built into the structure of the face. All laid on top of each other.

2. Practice; keep going and going I've done about 40 of these over the last 2 years. If your first few look crap ... just make the next ones better. Learn form you mistakes.

3. Don't be afraid to experiment with shapes and colours, if you see greens, blues and oranges in the face then add them at lighter transparencies so you get flecks of those colours. And as long as you've got the basic shape right it doesn't matter how you represent that or how roughly. It'll still look good.

4. Have fun doing it - I usually get incredibly drunk which helps, as I'll less inhibited and more likely to experiment.
