GFX Battle - Line Art

Chiefblackhammer · Oct 16, 2007, 12:38 PM

In keeping with my "different" themes this battle will be about line art!!!

Basically, much like the render theme, I will give you an image and your job is to do the line art for it!!! I am taking the first 3 people who want to give this a try!

For your reference here is what line art is:

Heck, I will even give the image just so you can decide if it is in your skill level.

Just to clarify, is this going to be just line trace or full out color too?

btw, i've seen this image traced a number of times. i'd suggest you also get them to submit the psds :P

GallComp · Oct 16, 2007, 07:51 PM

I dont think it should be color, as you mention this image has been vectored several times, so making it Line-art only at least would make it different.

PSDs, are you telling me you dont thrust me????? Lol...

thats if you're not willing to clean up and change your ways then yes!., ....XD!

I've seen most if not all your work (even in ML) but i do have trouble believing some of ao's members, mainly because i've never seen them do it.

It takes a lot of effort to do these, maybe 15-20hrs or so(lmao i still have like 3-4 unfinished psds from last year XD). I think if this is to ever pick-up , the winner should get like 1000creds and street cred. or something similarly of extraordinary of value since this take alot of dedication and passion.

Its hard to find people to do this, let alone get them to participate(like me:P)

It is just the lines...we don't have enough vector artist here yet...as far as the time...even if you did the full vector that is only about a 7-10 hour job given the size of this scan so the line trace should be much less than that...maybe 1-2 hours...if that...I mean the lines are simple and straight forward in that scan. I really wanted everyone to submit a line art of their own but I just don't trust that someone wouldn't rip. Maybe another time.

It will take me a little bit more than that since I'm more detailed when vectoring, also I'm not using photoshop so it will be a little bit extra time invlved too...

I would like to give this a try... It should be interesting and fun to do. I've actually been doing line art in my production technique class (only using one line), so maybe I can have a chance uh one question... can it be done by hand? I like inking things sometimes. If so, yeah, count me in.

Meaning using a GFX tablet? Sure....Printing the image and tracing it, then scanning it....not sure that will "win" the contest... but sure.

@ Sasurai are you in? There will be a 2 week time limit on the submissions if needed
