that kanye piece is swift, i like the simplicity of it (sans the light trail). nice gza piece too, shirt came out nicely.
dunks-a-lot - recommendations are welcomed, i just can't make any promises. i'm a little backed up from trying to put stuff together for a show, but i'm always up to throw it down with illustrator for a quickie. so if you have anything in mind, feel free.
on my technical tip for some CCS work - i created all of their tech packs & apply designs to them, so here's a sneak peak.
a sketch → into a vector → into a techpack → into a proto. due for early next year:
and the t-pack for the elephant bomber droppin next month:

hey thats great, but the pattern doesn't match up correctly on the hoodie? there seems to be a very boxy feel, the top doesn't match up with the bottom.
but maybe thats what you were trying to achieve? |

*edit* nvm i figured it out. but i do have another question for you krome lol. do you use the live trace feature or do you do everything with the pen tool? just curious

^ appreciate the kind words! make sure you check the updated version, I had a few color errors on the first one.
my bad DDKing, i rarely check the forums other than for buy/sell stuff, so i didn't see your posts until now.
just a quick run through-
Corel Draw in all honestly is the better program. It's got an easier work flow and is a lot more intuitive imo. But, since it's Corel and not Adobe, it automatically gets bumped to second place since Corel isn't as compatible with as many programs as Adobe. So if you have a Corel Draw file, bringing it in to say, Photoshop or InDesign wouldn't be as flawless as bringing it in from Illustrator. Compatibility issues is it's biggest downfall. But best believe, if somehow Adobe buys out Corel (highly unlikely), Adobe would replace Illustrator with Draw in a heartbeat.
As for Live Trace, I can't lie, I use it when I need something quickly done or mocked up. Yeah, sometimes when I'm lazy too. But honestly, if I there's a single ounce of need to make something look remotely good, then I won't even bother with live trace. It depends on the situation I guess, but I try to use the pen tool almost everytime I need something vectored out. It's pointless to Live Trace if you want any precision.
