My Board

Hello, I wanted to do a vector image, but I didn\'t know what to make it of so I looked around my room and I spotted my Charlie and the Chocolate Factory poster hanging up with Johnny Depp on it as Willy Wonka. I thought since everyone has seen him in that shot (Looking at the camera with his left hand on the brim of his hat) that maybe I should attempt at that. So I started yesterday at 8pm when my internet was being wacky. Right now these first few images are going to be just getting the base laid down as base colors for me to work off of. Once I get all of these solid base colors laying there I can start adding details on top of them to bring Johnny to life. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> I think that his face is going to be the hardest thing about this peice as I do not know how to do the human face in any artistic form so I guess we\'ll have to see how my vector face turns out. Here are the first two images; [attachment=2088:attachment] [i]Willy Wonka 3/20/06; 10:20PM[/i] [attachment=2089:attachment] [i]Willy Wonka 3/21/06; 2:28PM[/i] I hope you like them so far. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> /d

very nice start dren, should turn out good. I\'ve also been looking for what else I can vectorise but, so far i\'m drawing a blank o.0

Thanks, Hoax. Just pick a random object where your computer is and start drawing /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> Anyway, Here\'s an update. [attachment=2090:attachment] [i]Willy Wonka 3/21/06; 10:55AM[/i]

It\'s really coming along well, Josh. Well enough that the 5 year old picked up right away on who it\'s going to be when you\'re done.

haha... That\'s friggen sweet. I\'m glad that he\'s recognizable by everyone. I was afraid he wouldn\'t be. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> Unfortunatly, his face is going to be REALLY hard to get to look perfect and look like Johnny Depp...

Johnny Depp is an enigma, everytime I see him he looks different.

Which is why he\'s so great for so many characters in movies /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> I mean...he\'s been a guy living in the middle of no where, a pirate, a chocolateer.....btw, did you know he can\'t grow facial hair? :\ All his facial hair in movies is put on him hair by hair 0.0

o.0 looks almost as creepy as the real thing /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> very nice job /good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />

lol, yeh its going really well, keep it up. /good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />
