Post by: Felsir on September 21, 2005, 03:40:32 am: I checked the Falcoon image^*, and I must say, it is not one of the easier images.
Looking great so far!

_{*) since I learned your other images were by Falcoon, I searched the net and build myself a nice library of images ;-)}

Yes this the hardest vector I have done to date and keep going back and tweaking different parts that I think look wrong...hopefully in the end I can do it justice.

Falcoon is a great artist, he has a few pictures to his name...

Small Update including some tweaks...

Post by: Invader70 on September 22, 2005, 11:03:57 pm: Another update for Chun Li, this one took me a while as there are a lot of small parts that needed to be traced and shaded correctly...

Thanks Snaake, this one is actually taking me longer than usual as it has some complex stuff the vector.

Its not really that hard to vector it just takes some time and an eye for detail if you are tracing a piece of art...

Yes it does appear she needs another finger but that is how Falcoon originally did the sketch so I will not fix it unless I decide to get adventuress with my vectoring :D

Another Small update, this time just the left leg and hand...

Janey you will need a vector program to start with something like Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand (this is what I use), Microsoft Visio, plus their are some free or shareware vector programs around I believe, some one else may have some thoughts on this...
Second get Frostillicus Vector Tutorial from here: http://www.localarcade.com/arcade_art/details.php?image_id=223 it a great start for someone who has not vectored before and lastly I would say ask questions in this forums everyone is willing to help out if you get stuck...

Title: Re: Street Fighter - Chun-li - Vector ** IN PROGRESS **
Post by: Felsir on September 29, 2005, 02:41:46 am: Great job, I really like the shading. Sometimes I'm stuck because Visio only does simple predefined shade patterns.

@janey: Take a look at the FAQ there are links to various topics about software, techniques etc. Click here (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=42659.0) to open the FAQ.
