As a graphic designer, I'm forced to work with a lot of vector clip-art to meet tight deadlines. Recently, however, I've been getting sick of the idea of rearranging other people's work to make art....so I've decided to start working on creating my own original hand-drawn clip-art packs.

This is a preview of what can be made using my first pack, which will be a collection of elaborate, growthy crest segments than can be used to build unique, hyper-detailed crests in no time. All the individual segments are hand drawn by me with micron pens and vectorized to work with Illustrator, Freehand, Flash and so on.

This particular piece consists of 8 individual segments and literally took me less than 5 minutes to assemble from the pre-made segments. Can you tell where one ends and the next begins? ;)

I'll keep you guys posted on this project's progress.

You should put these in an art gallery! I really want the Marionette series to become action figures now! They're so cool!

Great work.
I am authoring a book on artists who use and create Vector Brushes.
It will be published by RotoVision.
I am looking for contributors and think you would be a great addition. If you are interested, please contact me for more details.

I look forward to hearing from you,

Luke.

If you can create something like this, and label it a prototype, then im sure you will do really well with yourself.
Good luck in the future.

Ah. I know how you feel. I've always wanted to make that kind of "put-together" kind of stuff but I don't like the idea of using other people's stuff to make my own thing.

I'd like to make my own graphics such as this but I'm not sure how I'd go about doing it..

That's pretty cool. I've been practicing doing stuff like this freehand lately. Do you mind answering something though? When you recreate this in Illustrator are you live tracing it or using pen and or brush tool?

Keep up the good work.
