Artist's Comments
My first proper vector art picture. Took me an unbelievably long time to make, about a week and a half on and off. I'm happy with the lips, but the rest of the face I went over the top with and made them too realistic, I wanted them a bit more 'vectory'. Also, the hair was originally meant to be done completely, then I decided to 'fade' from more realistic to less, then I got annoyed with it and gave up.
Started it in photoshop, but the sheer amount of layers (was over 400 before I started combining them all) was slowing down my computer too much. I 'bought' a copy of illustrator so any future drawings would be resizable and started using that for the hair. Stil don't really know how to use it, but hopefully have learnt a fair bit from my many and various mistakes. The original picture is on my desktop wallpaper [link] |

I'm assuming you have photoshop here, but the basic idea is to use the pen tool to trace around areas of the same colour in a photo then fill that shape with said colour. you then build up layers of shapes to create a simplified version of the image. the principle is similar to that of cutting out paper shapes and glueing them down to create an image.
more shapes = more realistic & smoother gradients
less shapes = more stylised kinda look
