The challenge
Each month I want to have a lil' vexel challenge. There are no prizes, just the fun of making new works (all arts will be featured).
The theme for June is...
Cartoon yourself
That's right! I want to see a portrait of you in a cartoony style! Remember that this has to be a vexel.
When your entry is done just send me a note with a title 'Cartoon challenge'.

Vexels- what are they?
Gallery Descriptions and Miscats
The definition
To understand what Vexels really are you must get to know Vexel's bigger brother- Vector.
Both can be created with a tool called Pen tool or Lasso Tool (or similar- depending of the graphic software) using layers of shapes filled with solid colour or gradient BUT Vectors are created using vector layers while Vexels use raster layers.
Vexel = Vector + Pixel
To simplify: Vectors are scalable (you can enhance or scale them down and all shapes will stay sharp and crisp) and Vexels are not (when you expand a Vexel you can see pixelation, as rasters are based on pixels).
Vector expanded to 300%
