I would send you guys to this website. But it got shutdown beacuse of a server problem. Now its only a forum but there is still some good stuff. IllustratorWorld This is where all of the vector artists hang out

Yeah! aha .... so ya wanna finish laughing it up and give me back my pen? ! GRRRRRR ..... He he just playin.

That is simply one of the best Illustrator illustrations I have seen in a looooong while.
I gotta admit that is some serious talent there.

Illustrator is hard enough to get a hang of ... the "pen" tool and all it's 100 tricks ;) But to do this? Man that is awsome! You gotta point me into a gradient mesh tut if that is what you used .. cause I'm in total awww .....



NICE !! :D

EDIT:Yeah so right after I dropped this post ....

I was a little uhmmm .. that seriously looks like a "photo". I checked out your image in Opera and Zoomed in at around 800% .. still a little in disbeliefe I went to the site you posted above ... found the pen, Zoomed in on the flash controls .... I barely found the difference between the two .. and OMG, dude !! How the !! Holy :P !!

:P How long did it freakin take you :P ?????
