i'm thinking of trying to break into the illustration game. i've just started spending serious time on my pictures, and i made me a blog. so far, i've used illustrator almost exclusively.
check it out, any pointers would be appreciated.

Did you use a reference image to these Lambos in AI? How does one go in starting to draw this, do you place the raster image and and start tracing with the pen tool?
Here's a sample as well ...
And I don't use LiveTrace for anything .. all done by hand ... gradient mesh, blends, blurs, etc ... Enjoy!
here are some of mine:

completeley done in illustrator, using reference photos. Was made to look like an artist did pieces of it at a time, and then put it together with tape and push pins on cork board. Final printed size of this was 55" x 26"

I don't consider myself an illustrator, but more of a designer, because I do more logo, layout and design, using other elements to bring the entire piece together. here is some of my work. the first was assignment for my design class. it was to create a granola box, so i took my band's name (timmy kue and the fatherless boys) and made Kue Bars. the second is the logo for a wakeboarding video i'm making for my group of friends. and the third is some work from my actual day job, here at the Pizza Factory corporate office. Hope you guys like!
This was my midterm for Illustrator last year when I was still in school. I just decided to swan dive into gradient mesh, never finished it though.
