VectorVonDoom Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I was going to simplify it but changed my mind. Have only finished the bottom left and top right of those windows. Still quite a few books window to redraw too. Who knew that bookshops had so many books! Back to using AD v1 as it's just nicer in a number of ways and as my requirements are simple it's no loss.

VectorVonDoom Posted September 22 Author Share Posted September 22 Thanks Mark. Finished the main windows, have a couple of book covers still to do, they're pesky ones though although none are done perfectly, not that it's obvious when they're a small part of the overall image. markw, v_kyr, JuN and 2 others 5 Quote Marc ArtByMarc.me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get there though. Perhaps I'm wrong but buildings don't generally seem to impress anyone. v_kyr 1 Quote Marc ArtByMarc.me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends highly on the degree of realism, so if you can look ("Through the looking Glass - Alice in Wonderland) and discover a bunch of things there, like palms, shelves/furniture, lamps, many books, brick doorways ... and so on.

VectorVonDoom Posted September 24 Author Share Posted September 24 Weekend update. Finished the book covers and the door windows insides/reflections. Have some text to do on the window stickers sometime. Working on the first floor window reflections then on to the brickwork.

VectorVonDoom Posted September 26 Author Share Posted September 26 I've done as much as I'm going to. I was going to try and do the brickwork as close to real as possible but it was going to be a ton of work, bad condition bricks plastered over in places too, so I chickened out and simplified it. Think it still looks OK'ish. markw, MikeW, MmmMaarten and 1 other 4 Quote Marc ArtByMarc.me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Eldritch Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Perhaps just stick with the original and keep it a painted white wall. It'll work nicer with the teal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MmmMaarten Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Wow! Is the whole picture done in Designer with vectors? That's madness (in a good way)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
