Few weeks ago, i started doing a Vector version of my favourite robot – PTX Alteisen, dont know about it? i’ll tell you more later on, hehe. Well what i did was, i found a low res image of Alteisen and decided to challenge myself and make it vector, so pretty much it was a tracing project, trying to replicate the same thing, but in vector.
And the results? i was happy i guess, i got a very nice ‘indirect’ feedback, i’ll tell you the story =)
Just recently, i printed out an A3 size of the vector drawing (since i can go as big as i wanted to) just to see how it looks like. I was quite pleased actually, but i had no use with it since i wanted to work on it more before producing a final one. So i just left it aside on the table. Then one day a client came over to our place, and this is what happened while i was working.
Workmate: What transformer? we dont have transformers here mate.
Client: I saw one over there, here lemme show you.
Workmate: woah, whats this? Jacky, is this yours?
Jacky: ehhh, yeah it is, i was just doing some test printing of my stuff.
Client: Mate that is fantastic, would i be able to have one?
Jacky: Oh, sure just take that one if you dont mind
Client: Thanks alot! my son will love you!
Jacky: (hehe….and its not a transformer!!)
well, that made me happy i guess. If only i can draw that picture purely from my imagation, because its still just a copy. Still, im happy with the results.
Heres the picture (scaled down)
Just amazing! good work. 🙂
