A4 vector lineart version of one of my Dr Who pics, for submission to the Community Project: The Vector Colouring Book [link]

Pencils / Illustrator (Mouse only) / Photos used for pencils reference.

What is Vector Art?

In digital art there are two layer formats: raster and vector. Raster formats are based in pixels and vector is based in paths and points.

When you resize a raster image, you are expanding the pixels. Your program has to try to estimate what the colours would be for the additional pixels created. Due to this, the image loses it's clarity and creates a pixel effect.

When you resize a vector image, you are increasing the distance between the points. Due to this, the image doesn't lose it's clarity and doesn't pixellate.

The key element of vector is that it's infinitely scalable without any quality loss and it's why we love it!

Thanks! This version's sort-of blown up out of proportion - there's a bunch of different Doctor drawings somewhere in here that're framed up better. I made this one bigger in case anyone wanted to colour it in...
