So I finally tried my hand at vectoring, this particular pony is more of a custom style and isn't too show accurate but I still wanted to show him off and get peoples opinions / advice on my work.

 

If you have any resources on vectoring in inkscape of tips on how to do certain things, please dont hesistate!

Sorry I couldn't figure out how to use the DA tags properly.

I do a lot of Vector work that I put up in my DA page so if you'd like to see different ways to do Vector's I guess click on my sig to see some of it.

 

Your image isn't all that bad though the head could be a bit more evenly shaped out. The black outlining in the skin area is okay but the hair stands out way too much; try using an outline with a darker color that matches the hair so it doesn't pop out so much like it is now.

 

To use DA tags, here's an image I made a while ago for people to see easily.

It's great for your first vector! I don't see any obvious mistakes so that makes it a perfect success!

[Critical Hit 69]

Not bad. I usually prefer more canon-looking vectors, but I like it.

Anyone know where to find a vectoring tutorial? I've been wanting to try my hand at it, but can't find a tutorial.

[Jokuc 8,173]

It's good. If you need help with anything in Inkscape about vectoring you can ask me.

 

Anyways, I wonder why it is so small. For hq vectors you should export the svg file as an atleast 3000px png.

Thanks for all these great responses. I can really put that information to use!

 

Also thank you for helping me with the DA tags, I couldn't for the life of me figure them out.

[XUNUSEDXXX 3,459]

i like the picture, its very well done and pretty accurate compared to the reference you had. bravo!!

[Alaxandir 93]

So I did another one, following some tutorials and what not and really paying attention and applying what i had learned from my first one I produced this.

I can't for the life of me get those DA tags to work, I tried posting the last part like it says and it still claims deviation does not exist!

[Lost 1,410]

hey, love the work.

 

I wish i could vector but i wouldn't know where to start :s

i have Photoshop CS4 and did have a go at it once but the results were more than terrible

Hey I finished a few new renders and I was wondering if you could take a look?

That goes for anyone else also.

I like it! All the lines seem smooth on your vector, no distortion I can see, other than maybe the left hind leg (looks a little off), but that isn't major and hardly noticeable.

 

Also, I agree with Mr. Pillow. Inkscape is a powerful and effective tool for vectoring. Plus it's free!

 

Great job overall, keep it up man.

Thanks for the encouragement. You should follow me on da if you like my stuff. Also because i would love your critique on some of my stuff. I just finished two new fluttershy vectors if you would like to see them same link as earlier
