hm, not to be a jerk or anything, but I like doing vectors, and this looks like a Cutout filter, Filter > Artistic > cutout, i did it with same type of image, using smeagol, and it looks exactly same....

Not bad. Vectoring of Gollum makes him look that much more... mucky?

great, I love the coloring and expression on his face.
The detail is amazing, I think that his eyes are my favorite aspect.

isnt this just a trace bitmap?

flabb In reply to omgzergrush [2004-03-16 09:31:32 +0000 UTC]

nah mate, it's a vector image. Not sure what a trace bitmap is, but I worked from light and shadow not from the configuration of individual pixels. (if that makes any sense...?)

esodesign [2004-03-15 21:43:39 +0000 UTC]

To me, it looks alot like a filter run on a screenshot (ie. the cutout filter in Photoshop or trace bitmap in Flash). But maybe I'm wrong. If you did all of that work, kudos to you.

flabb In reply to esodesign [2004-03-16 09:32:58 +0000 UTC]

like said on the other one, it's not a filter...The cutout is much less clean, give it a try sometime, all the edges are sharp...Check out the curves, they wouldn't be generated by a filter, I think.

esodesign In reply to flabb [2004-03-17 21:47:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh I have... I've used the cutout filter in Photoshop, the Trace Bitmap feature in Flash and Autotrace in Illustrator... If you work with the settings in any of those programs, you could create smooth curves...

I'm not accusing you of doing that... what I'm saying is that it looks like that. If you did it, and you know you did it that's good enough. No one cares what I think. But what I want to know is why go through the trouble of creating all of those paths and points and shapes to end up with something that looks so much like a filter? If you wanted that kind of posterized/cutout blobby look, then why not just run the filter?

At the end of the day, you'll do what you want to do and you are justified in doing so. It's a free country that I live in and there's plenty of room on dA for everyone.
