    This took my a very very long time, a couple of hours i would say, but i think it turned out really good.

    Great, this is an excellent vector. The only thing I would suggest is to try and do the smiley on the pin, it is a subtle change, yet it does change it to look a lot better in my opinion.

    That's really good. I especially like the buildings on the right side for some reason. They look like silhouettes.

    Maybe also add the lights in the upper right building...?

    (other than that it's pretty nice looking)

    By lights you mean the light coming out of the buildings windows?

    Lights added

    Wow. This is simply magnificent. Nice work. The only this is that you should be able to make the light source a bit more... detailed. The light/light source right above his head stands out more than the light source as a whole. That's the only thing in particular that could be just a bit more detailed. Still, it just amazes me on how much detail you put into it. Very good work.

    It all looks very nice apart from the button it stands out a little to much add more shadowing to it. It was a last minute change it seems but it just doesnt fit in. very well done though. In a couple of hours you can do this! this is why i was asking lol. that would take me a year

    Looks like a cutout filter to me...
    Then again, cutout is supposed to be vectorish, so it's hard to tell.

    Great job. I love how you really brought out the shading and tones on the face.
    You're getting better in each piece you produce, you really know how to hone your skills.

    I was sick today, so i had a lot of practice.

    What program did you use for your Joker and Batman vectors way back when?

    I used Macromedia Flash 5. The only reason I'm using such an outdated programme is so I can transfer files to and from school.

    I've recently finished another vector work, I presented it to the principal a few hours ago. I'll be posting it soon.

    Excellent work! The blur of the sign is what did it for me, perfect. The only thing that looks a bit off is the angle of the building... its a bit more exaggerated in your image...hardly noticeable though.

    I cannot wait to see the film!

    I know, although i didn't read the graphic novel, the art style of the film is so unique. I love all of the trailers, and the film will be a true work of art, i hope.

    I have another on the way with the comedian and some girl [sorry, don't know the name]
