Description
Swing away like you are young again. I had fun with this piece, probably because I did it in one sitting (god knows what that's done to my neck/back). Anyway I kinda made it as I went along, the only planned bit was the person over the green square. Done entirely in Illustrator CS for the first time!Edit: I made the grey section at the bottom smaller, made the grey lighter, removed the white drips and made some of the tech lines less obvious.
Note: This is old, I just changed a couple of small things that were bugging me. Please refrain from the he1z comments.
Comments and favorites appreciated!
Must full view!
I hope you like it!

haha how is this like he1z... for 1 he doesnt vector people and 2 he doesnt use photos in his work and 3 its such a broad style so you cant define it as his. ive talked to him and asked him if he thinks my work is like his or a rip of and he thought not so...
thanks for looking at my work

wow, looks really great very nice detail and color

yeah kickass shapes mate! clean and detailed but not overloaded or something, beautiful piece if these colors would be... different. The blue is got, no doubt, but the green and grey ones just don't fit. they won't harmony with this dominant blue color there, but anyway, excellent job

this is a very nice shape of the tree, the tire and the guy (though he somehow looks disabled... he's somehow so "small"... maybe because it's only a shape, but I can't hlep me... it just looks odd, somehow... especially in the upper version. Maybe because in the lower one he seems to turn his back towards the viewpoint, in the upper he seems to look at you [because of the position of the tire] this could be why it looks so odd...)
the color mixing is really good, all colors fit to each other (except that blue heart in the bottom left corner... blue on grey...) but the rest makes it look really cool.
keep up the good work

I really ike the blue and white, but im not so keen on the green i dont think it goes well with blue. But overall your technique is improving, i like the small details too.

I like it, it has a nice color scheme to it, gives it a warm/nostalgic feel to it if that\'s possible. I also like the lines that go out into the grey border. I\'m not sure about the grey area at the bottom, it feels a bit lonely even with the circles. I think it could do without the diagonal line sections, it kind of takes away from it. Also not sure if I like the second yellow/green image near the bottom. I think there\'s some inconsistency with the tech work, as well. And maybe some more variation in the grass. But overall I like it a lot, especially some of the detail you put into the tree and whatnot, it definitely shows.
Now don\'t go deleting it!

hehe! i removed the diagonal lines, and made the grey bit smaller... what do u think is inconsistant with the tech lines? is it better now that they are less obvious? thanks for ur comments!
