I'm currently converting this picture:

into a vectorised version:

I don't have access to AI and I couln't get used to the vector tools in the trial version of PSP8 I downloaded.
Instead I used MS Visio. Mainly because I use it all the time at work so I'm used to all the controls.

Anyway: LMKWYT!

oh, in case you're wondering: the art has no relation to any game. I just like the picture (it's from a comic series I like to read) and I think it would look great as side art or marquee art.

one word, woooouch

you could post this to the vector WIP thread

Ah, I thought the Vector WIP thread was for 'real' arcade art (as in: from existing cabinets) only?

Looking good!

Picture of the progress I'm making. It's a long job especially because I'm not able to work on it as much as I want to.
Here is a picture of the current status:

Next stage:

I'm now focussing on the blade and the hands, this should give an impression what it's going to look like when finishing. After that it's just hilighting and fine-tuning.

Okay, hands and blade are done. Finished the outlines of the hair too:

Time to start doing those hilights in the hair and the rest of the dress...
Hints and tips are welcome!

I found that MS Visio and Adobe Illustrator share only one common format: autoCAD or am I missing something?

look's great.

my guess it's that we will see this nice girl as main part of a lots of cabs.

That's looking Great!

It's a lot of fun watching the progress each time

Felsir · « **Reply #10 on:** March 17, 2004, 04:12:01 pm »

New update. Added mor hilights in the hair, adding shades in the clothes.

Sweeeet.

Out of curiosity, how many hours have you put into this so far?

I estimate roughly 20 - 24 hours so far. I generally spend 2 hours of time every other day. The shading took me the longest and there is still a few bits to do...

Felsir · « **Reply #13 on:** March 20, 2004, 03:10:51 pm »

Finally the artwork is finished! Well, knowing me, I will keep tinkering with it for a while...

Witchboard · « **Reply #14 on:** March 22, 2004, 04:04:48 pm »

Looks awsome. Good work.

I think that's all that needs to be said.

Thanks :-)

I'm currently figuring out a good way to convert the image to Adobe Illustrator or any other format that can be re-used for the Vector Library.

Felsir · « **Reply #17 on:** March 24, 2004, 05:35:23 am »

The artwork is uploaded as EPS file to the vector library:
