   A few sketches for illustrations that are going on a friend's site.

   I like these! Do you scan the illustrations in and just work on them in Photoshop, or do you re-sketch them in Illustrator (or live trace)?

   I ask because I'm working on an illustration for a poster and have no idea how to get it from paper to screen to print.

   I scan and then Live Trace in Illustrator.

   To me, the key is nice thick lines with a ultra-fine Sharpie. Clean up mistakes and line inconsistencies in Photoshop and voilà!

   Interesting. Thanks, Jeremy. What about areas in your illustration that are thick, or filled in? Do you do the filling in post-scan, or on your original sketch?

   All shading and filling is done during the drawing phase.
