Previous part [introduction]: [link]

Alternative part [vector lineart]: [link]

Next part [coloring]: [link]

Please remember that if you use this method for the lineart, your artwork is not a vector - it's a vexel. So put it in Vexel gallery, 'kay? ^^

If you're wondering why I'm submitting new version of this part of my tutorial again [instead of editing the old version] - that's because the old one was reported a few days ago and deleted. Yeah, some idiot apparently decided that using an anime screenshot in a tutorial is a case of art theft :aww: I wish he [or she] waited two more days - I was in the middle of working on a new version when I read that note about deletion, lol xD Or they could just report all parts [three other also had anime screenshots] - that way I would submit all of them again.

Funny thing, when a few months ago I asked Vector Gallery Director, ^Ikue if it's okay to use a screenshot [I was a little concerned about this], he said it's fine. Well, apparently it's not... You know, dA admins should finally make up their minds and stick to their own policy instead of confusing people.

Anyways, here's a brand new version, with [hopefully] better explanation and a sketch instead of a screenshot as a reference picture. Thank you, =Washu-M for letting me use your drawing ^^ :glomp:

If there are any parts you find unclear, please don’t hesitate to comment. I’ll try to explain it for you once again in different words, if possible.

Also, I’ll be more than happy to see your own vectors, made with the help of this tutorial. ^.^

I have created 3 pieces so far using the shape layers method. I have been using Photoshop for years, and I have done the vexel method before but it has been many years since I have, probably 4 or 5 at least. These series of tutorials were a great refresher, and because of it I was FINALLY able to draw decent looking eyes. I did my 3 images at a size of 2560x1440 all on shape layers, and they look great, well, there high quality I mean, im not trying to make myself out to be cocky or full of myself!

Thanks again.

I apologize in advance for the dumb question ^^;
(and very, very sorry for my awful english ^^;)

When you talk about "wallpape size" do you mean the resolution (75 dpi usually) or the actual dimension of the image (for example 1024x768, one of the most used)

Your tutorials are just great!! :dance:
They're really useful, the better I ever seen so far! Thank you very much!!
