Excellent work, I consider it high praise to say that it doesn't look like vector artwork and it doesn't!

Sometimes there's a right way and a wrong way to do something; and we do neither.

Thanks for the comment. I love your art and that comment coming from you made my day.

I was trying to give all of the art an organic feel. It's in Illustrator for my benefit. I don't think it should look like it was done with a computer. Sometimes vector art looks to perfect.

When I create the line art I add little scrathes and "brush" looking lines to make it look like the art was created using a brush or quill. More hand done on paper look. I also go in with a top layer and add little white marks at random to create more of a hand done look.

I remembered when the original Star Wars George Lucas said he liked movies with little scratches and imperfections. Kind of like the quilts made overseas. They add errors into the work so nothing they create is perfect.

LOL.

I do it just cause it looks cool.
