I have seen pictures like this on several stock sites



Yes, this on is yours StockMan.

How do you do these? What program are you using? I have Corel Draw, but I hear a lot about using Ill.

There are picture sketched. My hardest problem is finding models that like the idea of their faces being sold on the internet (Guess its time to hire a pro ). It is a lot easier for me to find someone to let a sillhouette be sold.

Anyhow, this one is done in Illustrator. It is an auto-traced (Live Trace) that has been majorly touched up. Once the live trace is done, then the realy work begins in simplifying and giving the images impact. Some days I'll learn how to realy trace from scratch.

Hope this helps.

Anyone know some good tutorials?

My son is 16. He likes a lot to make illustration on computer. He works with Illustrator and Corel Draw. He has his site www.haella.net. For me, it will be interesting to know what you think about his art.

WOW! That is great sutff. He should write up some tutorials on his techniques and stuff. This is really good work. All computer done, or hand drawn and then traced?

Great job!
