    I twwt as seancraven. I’ve been looking at Phantasm for a while now. And Xtream Path as well… I’m finding myself using Illustrator more and more often these days. Instead of using Photoshop halftones to prepare my most recent set of illustrations for printing I used the Live Trace function in Illustrator. Here’s how I did it, if you’re curious.
