Title: Fun with Vector Graphics - A School Project
Post by: Lamborghini_diablo on February 17, 2009, 06:02:39 PM

Well, here is the result of my first big Computer Graphics 2 project!
Tell me what you think! Done entirely in Illustrator.

you are insanely good.  That is amazing.  I really need to learn the program.

Thanks.  ;D

If you don't have the cash to spend on Illustrator, look up Inkscape. Not quite as powerful in some areas, but this entire project could have been done in Inkscape as well.

Now I just need your super PC to run it well. XD

hahaha. Well, I did this entirely on macs at school so.... that statement is debateable.  ;)

In all honesty, its not TOO demanding unless you have an extremely old machine. Since Inkscape is free, it cant hurt to try it.

Oh well then that is even better. :)

I will try it for sure.  Thanks for telling us about Inkscape.

Meh, I've seen much better photographs than that. Heck, your picture almost looks like it was drawn.

I'm not actually that goofy. Really nice job L.D.

Very nice. My question is, did you teach yourself how to do that, and if so, what did you use to teach yourself.  If not, how did you learn?

The title should help answer that question. ;)


This was done in my Computer Graphics II class. So it was a combination of me figuring out a few things myself, and my teacher telling me how to do the rest.
