exercise 1

well, that took a bit longer than I thought it would. decided it would be good practice to trace the entire vector drawing by hand instead of using the convert to vector option in flash after touching it up in photoshop. here’s a side-by-side of the raster and vector versions

edit: so maybe I went a little overboard, but I used a total of 14 layers in flash (just about every color has its own layer). The original jpeg is 58k, and the flash file is 11k.
