Vector Art - Weekly Themed Image Thread

Post your vector work. It can be altered in photosphop, but the main part of the work has to be a vector.

Martin,

What is the file type for your vector images (jpg, png, etc.)? Nice work by the way!

It seems that there is not so much vector artist here.

Or maybe not people who want to admit that they use and create vector art?

I've had some people raise eyebrows and lift noses at me over it. The same kind of people who tend to not believe that digital art is real art.

Do you create your own vectors Martin? So far, the only ones I have I bought to use or got through sites for free. I love the flexibility of vectors. I bought a drawing tablet with vectors in mind, because I want to learn to draw my own. But since I have gotten a job...my motivation to learn more art techniques has diminished. I'm just so tired!

So...concerning using vectors. I like to use textured backgrounds with them. I frequently use http://flypapertextures.com/

I have so much vector art...I don't to overwhelm your thread with it! :)

Here are some examples of what I've done with a single vector.

My most popularly sold work is vector and photography based. The photography is under and the vector is the lines.

The file type I work with is EPS.

But when I start to create my own I'm not sure what that file type would be.

Both done in Inkscape. I am not a vector expert but I do love making these kind of images.

I work in Inkscape too, but I have some experience with illustrator too. Yes, I make my own. I sometimes use reference images to help me make the basic shapes.

Damn, I lamed hardly. I wanted to upload some more vector christmas cards, but i made a fail and used the same name for the new card, So it screwed the old file.
This is the old one,but with a new images weird is that it still shows the original thumbnail.

And I re-uploaded the original christmas card with a new name here:

Oh gosh, I must have missed this thread! I'll have to dust off my old Illustrator files and post some. In the meantime, here's a fun little stop motion video I made for my son's Cub Scout pack's Pinewood Derby a few years ago. Lots of vector art here...

And, of course, all of the logos I design for clients are vector as well, but those aren't art. Well, not fine art anyway.

I have not worked in Illustrator since my days as a graphic designer in an ad agency years ago, but I am sure enjoying looking at everyone's wonderful work! Kind of makes me miss doing it myself.
