LuminosityXVII: Actually, I just checked and there are some auto-vectorization services online that seem to work pretty well, though the good quality ones all seem to require payment to download the result.
LuminosityXVII: Sadly, blowing artwork up to a larger size generally results in a print looking something like this; you may be aware already, but increasing scale means the software has to fill in pixels that didn't exist before and rearrange the ones that did, and it sure as heck is anything but perfect at that--so you wind up with blurry lines, and you can see the pixelation on the actual, physical print.
You could look into it, but in all likelihood we'll need another solution.
I propose we make Bitcoin miners give back their GPUs. They were meant for this kind of large-canvas work, dammit.
I can sympathize, though. I once did a commission for a piece designed to be printed as a movie-sized poster, and I had to learn entirely new techniques for getting large swaths of lineart drawn in one stroke--because about a quarter of the way through, it got to be that literally every brush stroke caused my computer to hang for anywhere from 15 to 45 seconds.
LuminosityXVII: @Zargothrax: @CandyDragon: A very blunt critic went to town on his shading (which I thought looked great, mind) and Bluedraggy asked that it be taken down. I have faith that it shall return.
Mostly cause I'll kick his butt if he lets the critic get to him for too long. Bluedraggy, you are better than you think.
LuminosityXVII: @Sashimi: @CandyDragon: Guys. There is a simple solution to this debate that requires neither soapboxing nor namecalling.
Step 1: Have Rajmataj apologize profusely to Katia
Step 2: Platonic cuddles (compromise is the mother of friendship or something I forget how it goes)
Step 3: Wear leather padding before initiating Step 2 because we'll probably forget to ask permission and claws hurt
Could use some polish, of course, but that's more a job for a full studio team. Also not sure how I personally feel about the bit superimposed on the above anime background, but I totally understand why you went for it.
The timing's spot on, the scene choices especially at those few pivotal moments (beginning, end, break to chorus) fit perfectly, and overall it was fun to watch. Good work!
LuminosityXVII: Also @durandal, who failed to warn me that it is a more addictive drug than meth and attempting to stop is like trying to climb out of an above-land Mariana Trench while naked and covered in baby oil.
Also, this video, which will probably look silly to a lot of you but is actually amazing so shut up.
In other news, I would like to note that I have, to date, read the first three volumes of the Austraeoh series. If we use War and Peace (587,287 words) as a unit of measure, I am currently sitting at 1.28 WaP.
LuminosityXVII: I'm going to go ahead and stumble into this post a year late to say that I'm operating under the assumption that that suit has rocket boots, and I will be sorely disappointed if it does not.

Well, either way, I think the next one needs to incorporate both of these somehow. Can’t lose our party guests now that they’re here, after all!

And if it mean anything, your take is higher effort than mine and also features SwordDog.

...Hm. Not sure why I didn't think of that.
I mean, results from vectors converters are often pretty imperfect, but it's more than worth a shot.

Also, I'm going to guess that's a pony buried underneath all the scratchy cuddles?

The idea of doing soft shading underneath the hard shadows intrigues me. Looks like it worked out pretty well.

I credit Kaz as my inspiration.

Suffice to say: I can verify that, yes, it is an intentional reference to Hard Reset.
