Vector Art portfolio showing several vector graphics designs I have developed for different reasons. If any of this material interest you, please contact me in [Twitter](https://twitter.com/nilostolte).
Each different design project in this protofolio is stored in a different directory that can be accessed directly or through the link supplied here.
## Technical Illustrations
Vector graphics really excells in technical illustrations. Here are examples of technical illustrations in SVG I have done in the past:
### Octree
Below the correspondence between the [octree](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/blob/main/Technical%20Illustrations/README.md#octree) data structure and its representation in space is shown.
This illustration first appeared as a [figure in my PhD thesis](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/blob/main/fig_oct_rgben.pdf), that
was entirely written in PostScript with 3D coordinates converted to 2D externally (probably by a program I wrote, which I can't find
anymore), but with illumination calculated using a 3D directional light source in the PostScript code:
## Beer Label Designs
All these beer labels were designed entirely from scratch, from their names until the last details of the label. Giving attractive and
fun names is often a good strategy for maketing a product. Combining with modern, unusual, and attractive artwork can easily
boost product acceptability. Here are some samples of the creativity involved in these designs.
### The Gunner's Choice
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Colt-45) shows the development of a label for a beer called [_The Gunner's Choice_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Colt-45#the-gunners-choice). It shows all the design features and the reason why they have been introduced.
### Dark Lager
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Darth-Vader) shows the development of a label for a beer called [_Dark Lager_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Darth-Vader#dark-lager). It shows all the design features and the reason why they have been introduced.
### Death Valley River
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Death%20Valley) shows the development of a label for a beer called [_Death Valley River_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Death%20Valley#death-valley-river). It shows all the steps to acquire the final label below. It lso shows some PostScript code to create a feature for the design.
### Brexit Bitter (aka Selling England By the Pint)
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Selling%20England%20By%20The%20Pint) shows the label for a beer called [_Brexit Bitter_ aka _Selling England By the Pint_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Selling%20England%20By%20The%20Pint#selling-england-by-the-pint). The design is quite simple
and the choices are commented.
### Viva Zapata
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Viva%20Zapata) shows the label for the beer called [_Viva Zapata_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Viva%20Zapata#viva-zapata).
### Kiwi IPA
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Kiwi%20IPA) shows the label for a beer called [_Kiwi IPA_](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Kiwi%20IPA#kiwi-ipa). The design is quite simple
and the choices are commented.
## Other Designs
These are other disgns that were not used as beer labels.
### Diamonds are Forever
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/Diamonds%20are%20Forever#diamonds-are-forever) is a design where the basic idea was a James Bond movie with the same name.
### North Shore
[This directory](https://github.com/nilostolte/Vector-Art/tree/main/North%20Shore#north-shore) is a sketch based on a surf environment.
