Artist Comment

It has been a long time since I submitted anything. Got to blame it on work. I only have about 3h on weekdays to myself (excluding travel, work and sleeping time). And I come home too tired to do much more than prop myself comfortably on my chair and watch TV. So its more or less the weekends when I catch up on my vectors or walls.

Ok down to the making of this saber vector...

First, I know that this has been done by several others. It was taken from Megami and I loved it so much that I just had to do it. Besides, I wanted to add my own style and flair to it. And I did start this about 5 weeks ago before I saw the other versions of this vector.

Lost count of how long I took to do it because I started another shana vector and a tsubasa one in between somewhere. It was the sword that put me off. The lines and shades of the original were so in-distinct that it gave me a huge headache trying to figure out where each colour started and ended.

I guess some of you would have realized by now that I got rid of some stuff like the shoe portion. Just tought that saber looks better in the elegant dress whitout the grimy looking brown shoes. So out it went. Mwhahaaha.

My favourite part was the eyes. As with all my vectors, I enjoyed doing the eyes the most. The blending of colours to give it a slightly more gradient look was the least tedious. Also, I like the way that the iris turned out.

The part that took the longest time was of course the outlines. I had to go over it twice to give it the variant thickness. An estimate would be about 2/3 of the time I took for the whole vector.

As usual, the vector was so sharp that the lines were jagged. So I added a slight blur to the resturized version to make it look smoother.

Somehow I get the feeling that vectors like mine, which are meant for use in walls, are not popular at all. I have not seen any of my vectors used in any walls yet. Is it because its too troublesome to add in the lighting and shadows? Or is it because people are not aware of such vectors?

I make it a point to vector pictures that are too difficult to save as there are either huge portions chopped off or the scan was not joined properly. So I am really wondering why others do not use such vectors in their walls.

I have been rambling on haven't I. Doubt that many actually take the time to read the discription. Its just see, nice and click to download. Or the opposite which is see, not nice and click to close. Oh well...

    I've seen a vector using this scan also...But I'll still comment this one! Very clean, clear, smooth, and sharp lines. You gave a very nice tough to it^^ Awsome job! I'll definately add this to my favs! Keep up the awsome work!

    When I saw this one I thought: "OMG. The vector is awesome. The lines are smooth and perfect to make a wallie with." It is true that not so many would read everything, but I think that this one deserves some attention (and all your work). Im not a good designer, but when I get better I will use this one. Probably a wall, and thats the best way to use it.

    Dont worry, this one is awesome, and its BIG O.O. I love it ^^.
    Keep up the good work! ^^

    Looking at the vector up close is even more impressive. You nail every detail and coloring perfectly. If it's ture that not one member has used your vector to create a wallpaper yet then that is a shame. I am not a creative graphic designer but Nolove wants to and I am sure that when other designers take their time to look at this they will want to create a wallpaper with your Saber vector. I happen to really enjoy the serie and I like Saber. I too know that there had been other vectors of this scan but I believe you did a very distinguished job. :)
