Description I hand drew him, took a photo, cleaned it up in photoshop (fixed hair and other lines added color) and ALL I WANNA DO NOW IS GET A WACOM TABLET AND LEARN HOW TO VECTOR IMAGES!

*huff puff pant pant* lol ^_^

I love love love Dexter's lab. There are some fanartists here on deviant art that I think are practically worshipful. Instead of feeling jealous, I just feel tons of respect and admiration and allow them to further inspire and motivate me. OMG AM I GROWING UP WTF!? haha

I still remember before I went to university for art, the thing that sealed the deal was getting a real, old-fashioned hand-mailed letter from Genndy Tartakovsky in return for the fan mail and drawings I sent him. He encouraged me to follow up and go to art school, and I cried like a baby, I was so happy...um... to me, at the time, it was sort of like getting a letter from Dexter himself.

Its years later, and I'm finished my degree and although I'm concentrating on my music career as a rapper, I never have stop drawing daily. Because I'm an artist! Plain and simple! <3

TYPING!

(lol I couldn't resist with #12)

You did a great job! And to do vectoring you don't need a tablet since you don't really draw the lines - it's just a bunch of clicking to set the points. I still sometimes use my mouse even though I have a tablet (to avoid hand cramps haha). If you want any advice I can try to help.

Maybe you could try Inkscape? That's what I use (plus it's open source)! However I totally ignore the keyboard shortcuts and prefer to click with the mouse because otherwise I never would have figured it out.
This is the tut I used to start with: [link]
