1. i almost finished my EXTRA HARD clamp vector, which was hardly tagged and cropped, and then *someone* posted the untagged, uncropped scan and everything i did was in vain T_T
2. im currently working on a EXTRA-HARD painting project, and the day before yesterday i was painitng it for like 2 hours and then something happened and painter closed itself so i didnt save the changes. it really killed me
3. school and other stuffz....

yesterday i just decided to make a LLLLLLLLLLLLLuvely vector and i went to my anime collection and saw this gorgeous sakura scan [comes from APA] and i immediately thought of vectoring it
was a pleasure making it, i calmed down so tomorrow i think ill continue working on my currnet projects

    Beautiful as always. :)
    The dress looks lovely!
    Even though I'm not a fan of Sakura your vector is really good and CLAMP=LOVE XD
    So I'm faving this! :)

    PS: I think u should post thar extra-hard-clamp-vector u said u were making if u finished it. even if there is the scan here the vector is better than a scan in most of the times ;) so your work is not in vain at all! that's what I think...

    I've seen this scan vectored before by someone else, but I love this version!
    Though I would've loved it more if it were relatively complete... There's a scan with her entire dress here on Minitokyo, if I remember correctly.
    Anyway, I like how you used the textures, it makes Sakura look a bit "ancient" and classical.
    Keep up the good work! And it's been 21 vectors already? You sure move fast!

    I agree with Arya3087's PS.! lol I did the same with my Tsubasa vector from the ova...lol
    Post it! ^_^
    About this work... I think it looks a little rushed... I've seen better from you! =S
    Love it anyways!

    OMG! The pretty enough vector, seem to me to be delicate :D Sakura image is so beautiful! This you proving something new using textures xD Great job! <3

    Her face is a bit strange, and I feel it would look neater without the texture, but everything else is neatly done! Great job~

  6. AngelKate Oct 17, 2007

    Awesome! I love this scan! You did a great job...as you always do with your vectors. :) I like the addition of the texture, it adds just the right amount of subtle detail.

    Minor nitpick - Sakura's eyes are emerald green, not blue. ^_^

    Other than that, awesome! <3

    WOW, so beautiful! Everything looks great! The outlines and colours are good, and I like the added touch of texture! Her face does look odd but I know that that's from the original scan. And like AngelKate said, her eyes are green. But otherwise this is yet another amazing work from you. Tres bien!
    And I agree with Arya-san; even if a better scan was posted you can still post your vector!

    Really nice vector, but the green in the bg takes away from the composition.

  9. dizzy-me Oct 18, 2007

    Uwaa....i like her dress and wings (especially her dress XD)! they're so gorgeous and beautiful ;) the overall lightcolor background and vector is nice and i think it does have the CLAMP manga style XD
    Keep up the momentum! :D
    *faves*

    Cheer UP! Its a bright and sunny day here and I think your vectors really wonderful! XD

  11. gel-chan Oct 18, 2007

    Hmm... Its great! Although it would look better if the backgroud was in a different color. Maybe blue...? Anyways, great work!

  12. Faqir Oct 18, 2007

    aah..memories..ccs will always be a fave for me. nice job. ^^

  13. Omone Oct 18, 2007

    WOW it looks wonderful! The outlines and colors looks really good. And I like that you used a texture.
    The background color however is a little bit too intensive..

  14. gaara-no-shukaku Elite Member Oct 18, 2007

    Yeah, her face is abit strange. Might try changing the shades I guess.
    I like the textures, although it looks weird for her skin. I would suggest for the background only. But overall, clean vector.

  15. DarthTofu Elite Member Oct 18, 2007

    I like the vector. The movement of the dress is really captured well.
    But it look like she's drunk. I think just fine-tuning it a bit would change the expression to something more relaxed and thoughtful, which I think you were looking for?

  16. moonescape Oct 20, 2007

    Its so beautiful that I wish I'd noticed this earlier. x_x I really love the outlines here, they're so wonderful. Truthfully I don't know why in the scan they made Sakura's face so different I mean. >:(

    I truly love this and the different colours for the wings and ribbons because they add a nice touch especially the texture. :o

    I hope you get better twinnie. =) I've been feeling a little down or just very paranoid since yesterday. :(

    Hrmmm...green...Usually it's best to choose a background color based on either the hair or the clothing. This gives you best results. But good job on the vector!
