Design Artwork Examples

[Guruparan]

hmm...may be it will take a week atleast for him to get used to Microsoft
"Design" ;-)

Anyway...there are tools as equivalent as Illustrator...but all i can say is
its all in our hand on how to use those tools effectively..

Dont screw that artist too much..leave him sometime...ask him to do some
parts in design few hours per day...maybe in a couple of week..he will a good
artist in Design too..and you can play with your WPF!!

I would like to send out a general request for some good artwork -
industrial, UI mockups, artistic paintings, anything that can show off the
power of Design. There is an artist in my group that has spent one whole day
with Design and has pronounced it unsutible for anything, its too hard, too
limiting etc. The ironic bit is that we use his Illustrator files to build
UI's in WPF! :) Thus the reason we would like him to use Design.
He is an Illustrator person and is a pretty darn good artist. So I am hoping
to find some examples to contradict his claims. Also any tip you might have
as artists coming from Illustrator would be helpful too.
Thanks,
Adam Hill

Hi Adam-

Check out

http://www.mlandman.members.sonic.net/

Everything here was done in Expression E3X. These pages were done for a
promotional booklet I did last year called "Megalon vs Dick Cheney", with 1
exception (KL Copy) which is a 1 page concept piece for a proposed kids book/
comic strip.
Other than final compositing in Photoshop, and one or two color corrections,
this is all Expression. It's a vastly powerful engine for illustration.

Best-

Mark
