What Does Vector Art Look Like?
Long story short: Vector is not a “style” like Anime, but a “medium” like charcoal. Asking what vector-art looks like is like asking what an oil painting looks like. It could look like Rembrandt, Picasso, or a fifth grader’s fingerpainting. Vector doesn’t automatically mean flat shaded, just like “painting” doesn’t mean high detail. Vector-based programs include tools for use with gradients and meshes, and thusly can be used to create high detail illustrations.
