gun vector (1st try)

[elliot]

ive been reading vectoring tutorials and tried a gun picture i found off deviantart. its kind of sloppy but its the first time ive ever used the pen tool.

i'm not too sure if i can say that's a vector....but then again, vector's not my thing...

[elliot]

i went over the gun with white / black in illustrator with lines, isnt that a vector?

[erikvduyn]

i'm not so sure, ask some of the others round here.
the style reminds me of the cover of Max Payne 2, same style....

By the looks of it, it is a vector, but some parts make me wounder. If it was done using the pen tool in photoshop [making shapes then filling them in] or in illustrator, flash or other vector program then it is. But for all purposes, lets just say it is a vector.

For a first its not bad, but why a gun...

well for a first its not bad

the only part not vectored is the little knob near the top right, i got lazy and didnt finish, but i did it in illustrator

What? i dont know how you can think that this isnt a vector, a vector is basically a simplification of complex shades an patterns using bold single shaped objects. This IS a vector withoud a doubt.

By the way Very nice, I must try doing a gun myself

A vector is graphic in vector format. Nothing else.

I think it looks good. Better than the original, as it was pixelated and ugly.
