Creating Stunning Backgrounds with TBS!!!
Trying to create convincing backgrounds with vector drawing tools is quite a challenge. The problem with them is trying to get rid of the e-card feeling they convey. But why not stick to raster drawing? Raster tools, like Photoshop or Painter are quite powerful in this area and a day’s work will yield impressive results if you know how to use them properly. The only problem is that they are not scalable, so you have to spend a good amount of time planning pixel resolution and size, to get your shots right. Nothing like zooming in on your character, just to find that the trees behind her or him are pixelated. You don’t get that kind of trouble with vector tools.
