Chapter 6. Vector Build Methods

As you approach a design that needs to be built in vector form, you must have your rules of creative engagement thoroughly defined. This means knowing what specific type of build method will work best for your design so that your final art will be both precise and professional.

In chapter 5, we covered two shape surveillance techniques: The Clockwork Method (TCM) and Prime Point Placement (PPP). In this chapter, we’ll leverage both techniques as we build art using another technique I have developed: the point-by-point method. As mentioned in chapter 5, TCM gets your points in the right neighborhood, and PPP gets them to the right address. The point-by-point method builds the actual structure.
