I made this a while back when I was bored. I was trying to make a Kappa in the style of Pears Before Swine. His name is Koolby.

Edit: I moved it to a new host, it should show up now.

OK, so I saw this thread and I am here at work and I am bored. So, I decided to draw something with MS Paint and this is what I came up with... Very simple and pointless, but helped me waist some time... :lol:

Vector graphics are different from raster(pixel-based) graphics in that they use things similar to a tri or mesh used in 3d application only in 2d.

I'm not sure if I posted it here somewhere yet (it's hard to find something I didn't). That's the only thing I ever did in vector graphics:

It's interesting. I noticed that both your submissions bear very striking resemblances to popular American cartoon's drawing styles. The first looks like a South Park, the second, King of the Hill.

The first style is indeed heavily inspired by South Park and The Order of the Stick.

Similarities to King of the Hill of the second one are purely coincidential as I've never seen the show in my life (I know what you mean now though). I guess any fairly realistic, simple, non-Manga drawing will end up looking more or less the same. Maybe it just this particular picture though.
