Artist Comment

KIRYUU ZERO from Hino Matsuri's Vampire Knight. This can be said as my very first vector painting. I'm still relatively new to Adobe Photoshop, meaning I just kind of discover through trial-and-error how to paint this picture in the program on-the-spot. The original picture is a lineart that I drew beforehand and took a picture of it and cleaned it up. I used Photoshop 6.0 (quite passe already, considering there have been several updated versions after 6.0 and the latest for the time being is CS3, but anyway... ;P) All in all, I enjoyed the whole process of painting the picture... I hope people will like it too!
The tools: I cannot recall nor describe them well, but I'll try - the main tool used in the making of this portrait is Magnetic Lasso for getting the lines; Airbrush for colouring (using Multiply mode in 30% opacity because that way I can build up colour to the tone that I wish); Dodge tool for highlighting, and Burn tool for surfacing darker tones where necessary. I only worked on one layer because I blasted up on the selection tool, performing addition, substracting, inverting and all sorts of modern magic with it to make the selections.

    the hair and face seems to have a few details that are a little edgy, but none the less you did a pretty good job considering that you are not that familiar with photoshop.
    keep up the good work. +fave

    I think this is quite good considering that this is your first attempt! I cannot remember my first attempt in vector painting. I think it was disastrous that i forgotten about it!

    i just think that there is some edgyness to the art. I think you can smooth them out by using pen tool to draw the curve. For that part. The colouring of the school uniform is really good! Keep it up!
