So as many of you know/can tell, I use vector A LOT in my finished work. Due to my perceived inability to keep a steady hand enough to ink my scary sketches, I lean against this technique as a way to create crisp clean line art, sometimes even doing full graffiti pieces. It’s a helpful aid and a hidden gem in the digital artists tool box. Not just for creating characters, but backgrounds with depth, great designs for advertisement images and elements, LOTS OF THINGS!

Now anyone who’s taken digital design or illustration classes already knows the difference between Raster and vector images. Pixel and graphical primitives or points. This can become a GREAT way to create solid, defining line art, and in someways, solid lineless art work.

I’ve developed my own little system to speed up the vectoring process and define my own style, but I’ve had a few people ask and were interested in learning it. Folks usually tell me they have a hard time understanding what they can and can’t do with a program like illustrator, indesign, freehand, corel, sai and other design/illustration software that utilizes vector technology or tools. Sometimes it can be confusing but it’s MUCH easier to do than you think! HELL, if my goofy ass can do it, YOU CAN TOO!

I’ve been thinking about doing some tutorials and how to videos, but I wanted to make sure there were more people that would be interested in it first before I started writing or recording step by step projects and things.

Would you guys be interested in it at all? What would you want to learn? What do you see me doing that you might want to learn to do as well?
