Incredible Vector Illustrations by Mel Marcelo

abduzeedo - 10/22/2008

abduzeedo's blog

Today is the Vector day, we have the 5 great vector packs giveaway from Designious and now we feature the fantastic work of Mel Marcelo, an artist and illustrator living in Southern California.

The first time I saw his work was in one of those oackley ads and I was amazed by the quality of the illustrations.

I'm a starving artist/illustrator in Southern Cal (starving by choice). I love music. I love to run. I love to run to music. You can find me violently happy at any Starbucks or club/Rave/whatever dance floor.

For more information visit his flickr and myspace pages.

Some works

Interesting results, but I think a lot in these pieces was made automatically by software. Everybody can click buttons.

Nice Post. I like the Seth Rogan Illustration. That beard is so detailed.

I think his work is really good, even if he did using the live trace the composition looks awesome.

Thanks for the comments ;)

absolutely love the first and fourth one. Made a Dwight Howard Vector, took me over a month but it looked great. Amazingly fun to make and look at but incredibly time consuming and sometimes annoying to deal with.

Yep, I agree with Dustin. Most of the artworks look like live trace rendering from Illustrator. If he really do it from scratch and achieve those effects, then he must be really great!
