I Care 4 U *2nd Vexel* Aaliyah |
OK, I have to say, I am really quite proud of this vexel, because it's my second and, of course, I'm still learning. I did this on Photoshop, as I did my first. I feel that i used a range of styles in this piece. The skin looks choppy (I did actually MEAN to do that), meanwhile I tried to add a touch of realism (I think) with the hair pupils and lips. Also, I wanted to incorporate some lineart into the vexel as well, just for definition and shadows.
Now, I feel that I have to say this, the last thing I want to hear from anyone is that I posterized, blended or, basically, cheated in anyway, because i didn't; it's absolutely ALL my own work and is a vexel. I know that I seem particular about that, but it does feel bad when your work is not appreciated as your own. Sorry, that sounded really grumpy of me, but I mean that in the nicest way possible, because I know that a lot of people can tell whether something has actually been vexelled.
Sorry about that...anyway, I used a bit of freehand on this one, thanks to my Wacom tablet (which made things a lot easier), thats how I got the fur and the thinner strands of hair. This is a darker version of Aaliyah, the skin tone is not quite right, but I quite like the difference. This is my first female vexel, so, this was my first real attempt at vexelling a lot of hair, and I'm really happy with how that turned out.
My favourite parts are the hair, the pupils, the fur coat and the lineart. My least favourite are the lips, the dullness of her skin tone and the eyelashes.
Once again, I've written tonnes! So, here is Aaliyah, probably my favourite singer ever. Done in about 3 days, which surprised me, as I thought I was a slow vexeller!
Edit// Sorry, I had to compress this vexel, so it doesn't look as good, but, oh well...
Edit// And COMMENTS would be highly appreciated, because I only have a few and I'm new, so comments would be nice. |
