Please full-view to see the shading! <3
Here I am, back with a new vector, after more than a month of submitting nothing but wallpapers. I'm sorry to say that this has nothing to do with a particular song, I listened to Tom Jones - Delilah and Pendulum - Propane Nightmares while vectoring, they kept me very relaxed :)

It's my third vector of Sailor Neptune, I seem to have a soft spot for her, even though I haven't seen the seasons she appears in ^_^' I like green and this picture had a lot of it, so I decided to vector it! I found the image on Dreaming Moon after following the link from a wallpaper description on AP. I loved a lot of images from there, so expect more SM vectors from me in the future! XD

Back to the vector itself, it wasn't too difficult for me and it took a lot less than other vectors (about 2 days). I didn't have time to submit it yesterday so it arrives a little late. What I really like is the shading, which wasn't difficult to do, but time-consuming. Does this resemble the vexel style? I've seen a few vexels and they look a little like this. By the time I finished the normal shading (one shade), I decided it looked too plain and added more and more shades to it. My favorite parts are the skirt and bow on her chest, see the vector at 50% for the full effect :D

The PSD file size is 200 MB (which is reasonable, considering the number of layers I used!) and it has over 60 layers. I am NOT opening it up and counting all the layers -_- That's about it, I guess. Comments and favs are very appreciated <3 PNG version will be available soon, I'll post the AP and Corner Of Art links to it. Thank you in advance <3

EDIT: higher JPG and PNG versions available at Corner Of Art.

    This is totally a vexel! And it looks so crisp! :o
    At 50% it really does look amazing... hell, it looks amazing period.
    You know, I'd like to see this in a wallpaper, with vexeled backgrounds! I wonder if that'd be overkill though...
    Anyway, great job, Pande! ;)

    WOW! A totally awesome vector! and she's my favorite character at Sailormoon XD
    You really did a 100% great job, Pande-san!

    Neptune! Without Uranus, too! LOL Yay.

    Her and 'Puu' are my faves.

  4. DarthTofu Sep 17, 2008

    Yes, definitely looks vexel style. <3

    It's very detailed with those shading.. It must have taken lots of patience for that.. at least to me. >_< Love the shading, they're almost look like painted one. One thing though, you might want to put more shades for the iris. But that's just my preference. :D

    Great work though, hope to see more vexel-y stuffs from you. =)

    This is just sexy - smooth lines and beautiful appearence. Amazing vector.

    lol i'm like not the biggest fan of vexel BUT i think her clothes and hair looks great. i think the bow needs some more highlight vexel along the edges, that way it'll look more 3d, since right now i think the shadows fall kinda flat. i have to say though the skirt is spot on, like that is 100% the way vexel god created vexels to be XD

    also the eyes need some work, like maybe the outlines need to be thicker and there need to be more details. they sorta just get washed out

    btw you can download a script that counts layers for you if you want. dont remember the link anymore but if you google it you can find it. lol 200mb for 60 layers? for some reason i feel like thats a huge file size for only 60 layers --"

    Sailor Neptune is my favourite character from this anime. It is definitely a fav.
    Thanks for sharing this good vector with us!

    Omg, Pande-san! From the thumbnail I thought "oh, the colors look so wet, it's a cozy feel~ :D "
    But the full-view was a blast... Is that what they call a vexel? Zomg, I need to learn that... o_O
    It looks really cool, love especially her hair and ribbon~ :D
    Great work! ^_^
