Vector art is also really neat to me and I know that there's an artist on LV who does a lot of vector stuff! Have you guys ever tried vector art? I have not but I would like to! I don't know if I'll be able to grasp the concept though since I'm so used to the type of art I do now.
I like how vector art looks and I'm kind of interested in learning how to do it, but I have no idea how to get started or what programs to use.
There's a free version of InkScape out, called PonyScape. They're both free, but one has a more centralized theme. They're a great place to start making Vector art.
I used to only do vector for a while. I'm a graphic designer by trade so I used Illustrator for a lot of things. A couple years ago I decided I needed to go back to drawing in Photoshop.
