Radium learned VECTORS =D
 
I drew this picture of an ugly evil looking guy.

However, the lines and coloring were done with nothing but VECTORS =D. And VECTORS are like MAGIC and can do MAGIC things. This is VECTOR person guy scaled down... with perfect quality!

This is VECTOR person guy scaled up, with perfect quality! Because I can!

This is VECTOR person guy after I pushed a bunch of buttons in the vector controls! It's like MAGIC!

Uhm... yeah. Vectors > Bitmaps.

Doubble Dutch Jul 3, 2004 05:37 AM

He don't look so ugly, I see worse when I look in teh mirror. Nice self portrait though.

Solstice in vectors would be 1337.

I can't draw trees. Notice that every tree I draw either looks like a rocket ship on a stick or disembodied intestines.

cooba Jul 3, 2004 09:34 AM

Well, do Helives then =)

I can't because I don't own the copyrights to him. Make Faw do it.

cooba Jul 3, 2004 10:32 AM

Only because Helivesses are supposed to be Elvis zombies?

Fawriel Jul 3, 2004 10:34 AM

Mostly because Faw made monster sprites for Tales of Uberbob as a favor for Radium.

You are not allowed to say that because you still have not learned the Way of the VECTOR. And the "E", "C", "T", "O", and "R" have to be capitalized because the word is MAGIC.

Risp_old Jul 3, 2004 07:53 PM

VECTORS are MAGIC.

Strato Jul 3, 2004 08:58 PM

VECTORS make life like fired chicken lima broth beans

Sorry... I am a lowly peasent who is not fit to lick the feet of VECTORS... Forgive my imputence.

MoonBlazE Jul 4, 2004 08:13 AM

That looks like an Acolyte.

Jul 4, 2004 10:57 AM

He's even cooler than bacon bits. :O

More like something between an Acolyte and that Final Fantasy mage guy.

Strato Jul 4, 2004 02:03 PM

but is his hygiene even comperable to either of these said beings?

And by that you mean it also looks like any generic hooded evil guy, right? :-)

The trick with vector drawing is that it requires you to think STRICTLY in terms of shapes and lines in order to make it look right, which is something I've never been able to pull off. I'd say you did a cool job with it, Rad.

Hare Jul 5, 2004 09:13 AM

sweeeet. Isn't this the same kind of stuff that you have to do to make flash animations?

Yup, same thing.

And if anyone's wondering, MB is referring to one of these little guys (which actually are where I got the idea for the clothing):

Lark Jul 5, 2004 09:55 AM

Awesome. Are VECTORs difficult to do?

Kaz Jul 7, 2004 02:21 PM

Rad makes it look easy, so they must be >D.

Describe to us the process so we may make cheap ripoffs :| .

I like it btw.

First I painstakingly outline every line with VECTORS, then, on another layer or two, I painstakingly outline every colored area with VECTORS, then I painstakingly outline every shaded area with VECTORS. :D

It sounds painstakingly difficult, but it only took about half an hour total.

MoonBlazE Jul 8, 2004 09:19 AM

By the way, if you add a nice background to it you could probably submit it to:

Radium Jul 8, 2004 10:23 AM

It doesn't look that much like a Acolyte.

Strato Jul 8, 2004 10:34 AM

Imagine attempting to use vectors to make the skull pattern around their hoods.

Sun Fun Dude Jul 13, 2004 04:18 AM

Looks pretty cool.

Odin Jul 21, 2004 06:15 PM

/me wants vectors

Which is why they can't get dates on friday night.

Strato Jul 24, 2004 07:48 AM

Yeah, and the whole evil thing is prolly a strike against them too. That and usually the females are sadistic demonesses or dead.
