The vector is neat :D
Primula is so cute.
But there some defaults in the hair, but just a little.
Nice job, + fav :D
Artist Comment
Hi everyone! This is my first vector! I started vectoring about 2 weeks ago, and I was working mainly on this. I had another one just for practice but it was horrible, so I wanted to make something nice. I don't know I started with something as difficult as this one. In my mind it was difficult. It took very long to get all the details in. I wanted to ditch the frill details but in the end, I did them anyway. And I'm glad I did. The end result looks great to me :). I am satisfied :D.
I still don't know much about vectoring, but I'll learn more and make more :).
This vector is of Primula from Shuffle. I couldn't think of a 'good' title, she looked like a little princess to me and so I titled it just that. The frills took soooo long! There were so many of them, and they had some details to them which took even longer! The outlining took an especially long time because I aimed for "thin" lines, I don't know if they're thin enough :/. The coloring took a while as well because I had to go over the vector many times to make sure there aren't any color leaks. I'm happy in how the eyes came out, they look very close to the original scan, and I only reconstructed a bit. Some on the shoes because the shadows were probably covering it, and some of the hair over the eyes and eyebrows. I don't know if it would've been better to just have the eyebrows and eyes visible through the hair but I thought in reality that the hair would cover the eyes and so I did so. There were so many shadows even on the frills -_-. But in the end, it was really fun to do. I expect to do more vectors in the future :).
Sorry for the long rant :D.
The original scan is here from HanaKyouyama. Thanks to HanaKyouyama for finding an awesome scan.
Special thanks to ASH-Hikari! She inspired me to get into vectoring and also guided me along the way. Thanks ASH-Sensei! :D ASH-Sensei BANZAI! OUSH!

Damn it!
First vector?! You must be kidding me!
The frills are amazing and her hair looks very cool.
There are some jagged lines, but it's okay.
Excellent job, I just can't wait for your next work ^^ -

Wow . . . this vector is amazing. I was skeptical about someone actually wanting to vector this complicated scan but YOU did. And you completed it at a first attempt no less! All I have to say is that you're extremely talented. *_* The lines are so smooth and controlled and the coloring is beautiful. Moreover this is a vector is Primula-chan, my favorite character from Shuffle! ^_^ Thank-you for your hard work!

Kazeryu06 Dec 14, 2007
wowww she's so pretty! There's so much detail on the dress (lace and stuff), and even then you managed to make her hair very detailed (my diction is lacking sorry >_<). The thing that stands out most to me is the shading on the red curtain seems off. Maybe it's just that the color is so much darker, or...i dno ><. btw, in the anime the hair didn't show over the eyes, but who says you have to do what the animators do, neh? =P.
