Tintin’s Cars - A Collection
I love finding collections like this on the web. Cars from Tintin “as drawn by HergĂ©, with a photo of the corresponding “real” car.”
Touch - The dashed line in use
“Even though the dashed line has emerged from a designer’s shorthand and from the limitations of monotone printing techniques, it has a clear and simple visual magic, the ability to express something three- or four-dimensional in two dimensions.”

Box scraps turned art. Great gallery of visitor submitted characters and illustrations.

Cool paintings by friend of Dines in Chicago. Interesting atmospheric backgrounds that play with highlights and shadows overlaid with intricate line drawings / patterns.
Eyes Wide Apart

Vector Safari for Mock Screen Captures

Awesome art show by Minnesota photographer Thomas Allen
Allen uses pulp fiction paperbacks and old books as “pop-up” still life subjects. Depth of focus tricks.
