If at first you have lousy technique …
Many months ago, I posted about one of my first vectorizing projects in “A Tree Made Of Vectors“. And then forgot about it.
A few weeks ago, I dug it back up again, thinking I’d complete it and post it. It turned out to be kinda a mess. See, I usually do part of the vectorizing, merge it all into one giant vector, and then export out giant bitmap images. This one simply refused to merge.
… just do it all over again.
It really seemed like the easiest thing to just re-do it. It goes a lot faster these days, generally. This one did, up to a point, and then things went wonky. I got it straightened out, and have some ideas on how to do it better next time.
In the meantime …
Here’s the new version:

I think this is my favorite trees so far.
Thanks! It’s taken me a while to work up to the more complicated ones (which naturalistic ones generally are).
