Great stuff ! Pen tool & knife - curiously, would you care to explain, how ? :stupidme:

basically instead of trying to recreate parts of shapes ive made before, i just copy and paste in front (or put a square or something down) then carve the shapes i want with knife and delete what i don't need. the rest on this pic is mostly down to gaussian blur. i tend to use the knife a lot when im working with hard edged shapes.

cheers for the comment btw. you have some brilliant stuff and your mesh tutorial, looks just like what i havent been able to find elsewhere, and i look forward to using it. ive messed around with meshes before but havent been able to achieve anything workable.

Thanks mate for your comments and explanation. Appreciate it.
Wow this is indeed a revelation to me. Did'nt know that it's possible to do vector using the knife tool.
Maybe I should give it a try :idea:
BTW right now I'm doing a walkthrough on how to vector a car ( Diablo ) using gradient mesh and vexel !
