Artist's Comments

:phew:

this was started to participate in a contest hosted by =JurgenDoe, but i missed the deadline... oh well! :shrug:

so i decided to go ahead, once the reference was a bit challenging and i really wanted to do a straight celebrity portrait, which i haven't done for ages (well, i guess i haven't done nothing for ages, hehe)

anyway, here is Kate Beckinsale, in a black and white vector.

i was really tempted to play with variations to add a slight coloring after have exported the vector to .png, but this way it would turn it into a vexel?, so i decided to keep my original intention.

hope you like it.


*edit: corrected a little mistake in the iris + added watermark =/

Jesus Christ this came out beautifully! All of that hard work and perseverance was really worth it, because this is just absolutely stunning!

Also, if you're working in Illustrator CS or above, here's a tip on adding color/hue to an overall image (may be a similar method in CorelDraw, but I'm not sure):

Make a new layer above all of the other layers containing the image. On your new, blank layer, make a shape (square or rectangle) that goes over the entire image. Make it any color you like. Set the shape to "color" or "hue" (both have different effects - I prefer "color") in the "transparency" box (I think that's what it's called, cant' recall off the top of my head). You'll see that it effects the whole image in a similar way it would in Photoshop, but without having to categorize it as a vexel. Play with the opacity and change the color of the shape as needed until you get a desired effect. I do this all the time to my illustrations to give them that last bit of oomph they might need.

Regardless, though, I recommend you don't colorize this one in any way. I think it's just amazing in grayscale. I'm truly blown away!
