This is Gin Ichimaru from the anime/manga Bleach.
I vectored this in Photoshop CS3.
This is my first vector ever. I think it looks alright, but I'm not sure if it's good enough to submit to the
gallery.
So I'm here for some opinions.
(Original scan can be found HERE. Enlarge it, you'll see why it needed to be vectored.)

Where'd you learn to vector, cause i wanna learn =D And it looks pretty good the style seems somewhat out of the norm but that's cool too =]
I've been looking for a good tutorial everywhere and couldn't find one anywhere so I pretty much just taught myself. Which is why I'm looking for some opinions on how I did, XD

Well, personally, I find the rocky outline to be a bit distracting. I don't know what it is...I just don't like the outline. The coloring is really good though. Especially considering this is your first vector. So, kudos for the coloring. So my only opinion on improving this would be to make smoother outlines.
As for tutorials, I myself learned how to vector from the links on the group Vectory here on MT. They have some vector tutorials I found really helpful. I also found some helpful tutorials on the member MapleRose's userpage. This was back when I first discovered vectoring.

I really love the quality, it's great. There are no jagged lines, no color leaks and I like the variety of shadows.
My only complaint is about the straightness of the lines. Be it shadows or outlines, the lines are... wobbly XD Can't
find another word to describe them XD
Did you use curves to trace them? Using curves with the PenTool you can manage to trace the lines beautifully.
Here a
tutorial about curves, just in case XD
Except that, it's incredibly good for your first vector <3 Mine was so horrible I never posted it, actually I deleted
it as soon as it was done XD
Thank you all for your suggestions. I uploaded this on AnimePaper to get some opinions too and they all said the lines are too jagged and I absolutely agree. I've been using the polygonal lasso tool but if there's a tool that'll do curves better then that's great.
Again thanks for the links, I'm sure they'll be very helpful (:
