Sketch and finish...

This will give you an idea of what a finished drawing looks like before its done and vice versa.

The rough sketch is on the left ready to take into illustrator and digitize with the drawing tools. Sometimes I go ahead and ink with a pen, then scan and open in illustrator and use the trace feature, then do the cleanup. But more and more, I have been taking the drawing into illy and using the pen tool to draw over the sketch. The lines are super clean and tight, and when you are doing vector, the cleaner and tighter you can get is best. I think Ill hop into my little truck and drive on down the road now....
