I really love what you did with the gradients and color choices. It gives a great sense of mood to compliment the style. The resulting realism of the lighting combined with the minimal background presents a dreamlike quality that's really delicious. You're making me want to get back into vector art!
Thank you very much! >.< It took me a long time to draw like this.
Also, the minimal background comes from my lack of ideas for a detailed background xD
I use vector art, because I am really bad when it comes to drawing with a computer mouse. I really like using vectors :)
Did you also use adobe illustrator?
I got my start on AI, and there's not many things that can come close as far as power and user experience. With that said, Inkscape, a free open-source competitor, can do most anything AI can. It's a bit more of a learning (bezeir) curve than AI and I wish it had a few quality of life improvements. Furthermore its development is glacially slow -- it took two years to fix some of the bugs I documented and reported. With all that said, Inkscape is still worth a download and a try.
I use AI from CS3, a software from 2007. It may be old, but I think it does it's job very well^^ I never used any other vector programms. Maybe I should give them a try?
I learned on CS2 myself, but these days the newest version of flagship software is not usually much better than older versions in terms of raw functionality, ESPECIALLY when we're talking about Adobe. I always recommend trying new tools when you get the chance. The very best stuff was the new thing at one point.
Can you make gradients with Inkscape? One of the few problems I have with AI CS3 right now is, that the gradients will turn into squares (WHY though? >.<), if they are too big. That is why I have to draw on a smaller scale or add them via photoshop...
Inkscape supported gradients since it's debut, and they've actually gotten even better in the last couple of years. Both linear and radial are there. So are the usual features that one would expect as standard. You can even mess with the applied gradient from the object editor which is something I wished CS2 had.
