Little Sister-Another Vector!


And the vector bus continues... bump, bump. I did a vector of myself as a child, and my sister was determined that I make one for her, and as she is my one and only sister, I must comply! That is what I as the elder must do for her as the younger! Anyhow, this is her as a child, and since she was always the more playful and fun one, her's is more bright and energetic. I was always more serious and sensitive and more of a loner, so mine was more somber. Yeah, she was a cute little thing. Ha! How quickly she grew out of that!

Err. I think this image killed the memory in my computer though. (Not that I have much to go on after my computer meltdown earlier this year due to bad ram.) So now Illustrator won't allow me to embed images due to insufficient memory, which sucks, because, really-that's the whole purpose of Illustrator. Shoot. I'm totally freaked out after buying bad ram, and I hate having to buy more and risk my computer freaking out again. Memo to myself, my next computer, I shall buy with a crapload of ram, because below 1 GB is not enough to run Creative Suite, and I'm pushing my luck as it is. Hopefully I can find some this weekend, or I may be SOL on comic pages coming up. The inconvenience of this sucks.

Pirate Girl!


So, I've been fooling around with Illustrator a bit-to make some pieces that are so sugary colored. I wanted to make it really colorful and pretty-so here is Pirate Girl. I don't know, I wanted to do something fun and I really enjoyed playing around with Illustrator. It has a lot of limitations artistically-in terms of using it as a painter like program, but it is all vectors, and fills, and graphics...eee! When you print out your CMYK stuff in Illustrator-even on a semi-pro printer, it looks so bright and punchy.

Anyways, I said she's a pirate, but she doesn't look much like one, does she?
