Illustrator selfportrait

pixguru · 07-02-2005, 05:16 PM

My very first try at vector and gradient mesh. I know could be better but I didn`t spend as much time on it as I thought I would. Still I`m quite happy with it for my first try.
Any comments or suggestions?

Nobody here????

People are here you just have to be patient because it's summer time and everybody wants to go play. But very cool picture, I couldn't have done a better job myself. That would be a good project for me do though. I have been thinking of projects to do recently because I am bored with my classes and i want to design more. You are very handsome. You remind me of Ethan Hawke.

Thanx Kristy

but I am nowhere close to ethan hawke. I never really liked illustrator though. I would do a better job on photoshop but after this project i`m starting to like illustrator. I will have some better work comming up.

Illustrator is definately the standard for doing vector work. I like what youve done there man. Just make sure the work you do in the back of your neck is consistant with the detail you put in the rest of it. Thats the only thing that stood out to me that I would say to work on.

Yeah I kind of ran out of time when it came to the neck and shirt. I`ll have better work pretty soon.

No prob man, I know you could have done better. Its evident in your detail in the face. Just mentionining it so you can go back and redo it if you choose to do so. I definately think you have something goin for yourself there.

If that's your first try at mesh, I'm very impressed. The human face is one of the hardest things to replicate. Looks like he has a big black eye though.
