Quote:have just started learning gimp, (only have an experience of using it of few days) because i needed to make a vector illustration for a project, I am only left with 10 days for the project and i still havent drawn even 1 vector illustration where as i need to create three,
You are in deep trouble because you do not understand that Gimp is not a graphics vector editor. It is a raster (bitmap) editor.
You can draw, using the paths tool, and export the path in svg (vector) format. Not the same as exporting the image as a vector. Might look like this: https://i.imgur.com/EeYTRst.jpg
Quote:i started drawing using path tool but its very time taking for the intricate design I have sketched so i was trying to convert it into vector illustration using gimp and inkscape but the youtube videos i was watching were quite old so couldnt really get it done...anybody knows any way?
If you do have a design made in Gimp and you need it as a vector, export it as a PNG file. You can import that into Inkscape. Make sure you embed it: https://i.imgur.com/odVFsON.jpg
...and in the Paths menu, convert to a Vector https://i.imgur.com/nJ6Y5rt.jpg
Which depending on the Gimp image might not be wonderful. https://i.imgur.com/Gs4IH7f.jpg
Might work if only as you say a 'Sketch' In the very short term since it will take time to learn either Gimp or Inkscape,
Export a png from Gimp and use one of the online bitmap-to-vector converters such as https://www.pngtosvg.com
