A Sunny Day
Again, me and my clever titles.
This vexel/vector is of the lovely Marilyn Monroe. It's a birthday present for my mom.
At first I wanted this to be my best vexel to date, super realistic and all. But then I realised my mom has no clue what a vexel is, so I though it was better to do a simple one, so she wouldn't confuse it with a real photo.
Anyway, here it is. The line-art was going to be black, but at the end I did it brown to give the vexel a vintage look. The sky is empty because I'll write something on there when I give it to my mom :P

I remember seeing a site with line arts of marilyn monroe just one like this. they were free to use.
correct me if i´m wrong.

edit:// oh yeah you are right!

Maybe there is a site somewhere, with linearts of Marilyn Monroe O__o. I didn't got mine from there though, I did it myself. I'm pretty sure you can compare the two linearts and they will look different.

Ok, edit number two. I searched for a while and found the website you where talking about. It's: http://www.geocities.com/ceasarvasallo/color.html
On that site, the image I used for my vexel isn't even available for downloading. The most similar lineart is: http://www.geocities.com/ceasarvasallo/C1.jpg , and both styles are really different one from another, so I guess that proves I actually did make my lineart.
I'm not mad or anything, but you should be more careful before accusing someone of something ;)

Ah *sigh* she's soo beautiful! I adore her pictures..
I've been looking for a Marilyn Monroe picture to vexel for a while, she's got such cute pictures <3

I love the simplicity of this vexel, I'm glad you didn't decide to make it super realistic, cause this suits the picture..
Reply from AcidDoll
I know, she has so many pretty pictures I didn't knew which one I could use.
Thanks a lot for the comment, too !! :D

That's really cool, Sam. And it's sweet. I bet my mom would love to trade with yours ; )

I'm glad you did it in this style over any kind of 'realism' style. This is very pretty, elegant, vintage-looking and just suits the photo perfectly. I LOVE the umbrella.
Reply from AcidDoll
Aww, thank you so much Echo !! I'm glad you like the umbrella :)
