vector schoolbus

Sweet d00d. Anyone know of vector tutorials for PS?

Not bad. I also wish some of the shortcuts were the same. It's a pain to do all of that clicking. I tryed Illustrator also awhile back but I couldn't figure it out and when I had Illustrator launched and I tryed to launch photoshop at the same time illustrator would crash so I had to get rid of it.

It's a little rough around the edges, that of course may have been the look that you were punting for. More accurately the highlights have a deckled effect, giving an almost hand drawn randomness to them, in a way it's nice, it reminds me of a screen print.

The back wheel is a little shoddy though, even in comparison to the front one.

I think I would be tempted to lower the opacity/change the colour of the shadow to a 50% or 75% grey also.

Still, really nice work and especially since it's your first attempt.

I had the exact same problem. For some reason - if illustrator is installed after photoshop it does something bad - you have to un-install photoshop and then install it again - then it woks fine....

thanks for the nice words guys.

the hermit: yeah the rough look was what I intended - I meant it to appear as if a kid had drawn it with watercolors. that's why the wheels are shoddy - I remember as a kid I could never draw circles
and the shadow - uhh - you're right - I meant to do that from the beginning but the wheels don't go all the way into the body of the bus - it's just a big splotch of black (shadow and wheels) - If I lower the opacity of the shadow the wheels will look grey too I'm lazy

were illustrator and photoshop the same version????

HAHA... Man that is freaking awesome. Its kindof cartoonish look.. I really love it man. Nice work. :D

i can just picture it as a cell shaded 3d model moving like jello. great job!

How do you make vector images? Do you guys use tablets or just with the mouse?
