Play With Vector Characters

Category: Fashion, Game Industry by Angie Clever

I have an idea. I would like to write a fantasy based web comic. I’m thinking a cheesy fantasy– something Spider Man meets D&D, with a heroine in a sleek costume. I think it would be a fun experiment in vector art.

Something like this, I think would do nicely. I only have the cover so far, so this is my sneak peak: Archive web comic

I know this is pretty simple. But I think that its a good start. I like vector characters. Vector art has such a versatility to it. I could always throw her into Flash and animate her too. :)

I like the idea of using vector based design– like you would when workings on logo-types– to create a true illustration. I makes hundreds of logos every week in Illustrator, and I think this really feels like the natural expansion of logo design, into full blown illustration.

I’ve been playing with some other vector illustrations. Here is a nice design of my vampire costume, as a vectorized character.

Before:

After:

I was also playing with types of characters. Something more realistic, with fashion proportions…

Or more of fashion/realistic drawing:

I’m going to keep at these and see how they progress.
