as in just simply taking an image and trace/vectoring it without adding any other stylistic things like backgrounds, or without changing anything like colour or shapes.
But pretty much EVERY INDIVIDUAL STRAND OF HAIR? Fucking hell. I admire your persistence and dedication, at least :D

Most of them aren't pixel-perfect traces, but a representation of the shapes and colours of the original, in an aesthetically pleasing form.
Compare the 'vectors' of IVV and mofaha. If they were to do pieces based on the same image, you'd see the differences in style.

But the changes are usually incredibly subtle with direct traces, and nothing interesting or stylistic ends up added - so the image just looks boring.
This is all just my opinion, by the way. It's obvious people like this sort of thing, else they wouldn't do it. I just think things like this could be far better and appeal to far more people with just a few simple changes.
Mofaha's stuff is a good example of traces that look more stylish because of the tweaks he makes to them. Even if it is something as simple as noise.
