Thanks.
And I've been using Flash since a few years previous to this vector, so it's just what I'm used to. I tried using Illustrator at school, and had no clue what I was doing... Flash's layout is just so simple and easy to use, so why not? lol

It's phenomenal.
I have no idea how you did it using Macro, but holy god. I can even zoom in at my liking!
It has this crystal-like luminance to it that is amazing and the reflection is beautiful. Your clarity and clean lines are amazing.
I like yours better than mine, *tear*

Lol, thanks. I've been using Flash for a few years, so I guess with a little bit of practice it's possible to become good at it.

Wow...really impressive work. What's your technique for the tarmac?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sorry for the late reply, but for the tarmac I just used a gray base, then added darker and lighter colored dots randomly to simulate texture.

Beautiful. You did excellent work into this. Thank you.

When I first saw this, I said "heh, nice photo". Then I checked the category and went "ZOMG". And then I read the part where you say that you didn't use bitmap trace anywhere, and my jaw hit the floor so hard, it made a hole in it and landed on the floor of the appartment two floors down!
Well deserves the DD! Keep this up!

it looks like you didnt do the rims...or did you? lol,either way its still a nice piece of art

wow wow wow wow. it's hard to believe that this isn't real. like, holy shit.
the only thing that could ever change in this picture without it becoming less real, in my subjective opinion is the shadow beneath the car. for some reason i think the light in the environment doesn't justify it's level of blur.
dude, definitely keep it up.
