    Illustrator Proposed museum map & art

    Aye-aye. I love visiting a good naval museum myself. However, since this one is down in Texas and I am up in the Pacific Northwest it may be a long time-- if ever that I visit it...assuming it gets built. :)

    Illustrator Making Cartoon People

    I've never used Xara, but as long as the underlying drawing or sketch is sound I would think either program would do fine. :) My usual approach is to scan and then import in my pencil concept drawing, put it on it's own layer and lock it. Illustrator has a feature called 'template' that does...

    Illustrator Proposed museum map & art

    Thanks all. :) Tanya--yup, all they wanted for the ground view was something illustrating the memorial plaza and ascending ramp to the museum. I imagine if they ever get their funding they'll get a much more professional illustrator to render the entire grounds.

    Illustrator Proposed museum map & art

    Here's a project I did a few months ago. A friend is a on a board proposing to try and get a naval museum built on the grounds of a seaside park in Gavelston, Texas.

    Illustrator Feedback please!

    Hi! I think that pencil sketch of one boy helping up the other is the star of the piece. I think I would endeavor to make it the main focal point of the poster by maybe zooming or cropping in on it more so it isn't competing so much with all the surrounding elements. Right now where it is just...

    Illustrator Corel Draw Car--Toon

    Thanks y'all! I was glad to see this fine forum get a vector sector. :) Here is one more. A piece of fanart for a fellow cartoonist named Kazu Kibuishi who has recently completed work on a graphic novel based on a gunslinging female character named 'Daisy Kutter'. (He draws her far better...

    Illustrator something I did for a magazine

    Nice work Tanya. Sharp as a tack. Haven't seen anything Milwaukee Road related in years. I got a lot out of the Illustrator 10 WOW! book as well. :) Chock full of helpful hints. A lot of the techniques in it worked for CorelDraw too.

    Creating image like this

    Well, I'm not sure how Windows did it, but there is no shape you can't create in PhotoShop simply by using the pen tool. I kinda (sloppily) traced your image with the pen tool, saved it as a selection and filled it with a gradient. Anothe option would ve to create it in a vector program like...

    DVD Screen Capture

    Does anyone know of a way or a utility to capture a still image form a DVD movie playing on your computer and bring it into PhotoShop for editing. I tried the old venerable "Print Screen" and the images shows up, but once the movie stops playing all you get is a black rectangle where the image...
