still in my cartoonification spree, i was inspired enough to do requests ^_^ it still isnt as smooth, but it's part of the whole artsy look. here's my latest work.

enjoy!

I tried to take Vectoring to a more complex level, using the whole rotoscoping technique, i got the hang of playing around with manual painting / outlining and applying brush effects manually.. it's fun ^_^ and rather than messing around with my protrait like i usually do (how vain), i did a portrait of Nikki and Lilly Abigail ^_^


Since i'm only using a mouse, it gets pretty hard to be accurate, plus the fact that i did this in about 30 mins... anyway i tried to make it look as close as the original pic :P


...and of course Lilly Abigail, now you finally get to see what she looks like ^_^

so why do i post here if all my rotoscopes are in an album already? well its because Multiply resizes the pics and yu wont get the full effect ^_^ haha.this is David. I used a lesser palette and layers for the one on the right.

i wanted this to look more like a Vector portrait so i left out alot of details and manually drew the eyes, nose, and mouth ^_^ im too lazy for the real stuff ^_^ so its like half-rotoscope half-vector or sumthin ^_^

thing is, everyone is Rotoscoping in Adobe Photoshop (btw, this technique of photo editing is called Rotoscoping) and thanks to Josh Matic and some of my other artsy friends, i tried my hand on it too ^_^ but i've been doing this similar technique years before already, only i was using another program. i tried checking all the tutorials and HowTo's on rotoscoping in the net, everyone is using Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. I tried something else ^_^There's a tool for Corel X3 called Corel Trace (which is a separate program) as well as Corel Draw X3 where you could get all your layers done in like 5 minutes, edge smoothing, cleaning up and all. then i used Corel Photopaint X3 for the manually drawn lines and some final touches^_^ so like, maybe everything to the finishing touch was done in less than 30mins. im not satisfied with the quality though, of course its not as good as the manually Photoshopped version that takes over 3 hours to do ^_^ if u wanna see what the good stuff is like, check JOSH's Page.
That's Jewel (hi Jewel, sorry ginamit ko portrait mo ^_^ astig kc e). i used 2 different layer techniques on these two portraits. i like the one on the right though, it looks more like a vector portrait ^_^
