Looks good JR - perspective on the scrolls is a little out though (but you know that).

Woa - A Blast from the Past! How's teaching these days Skally?

I'll work some more on the banners, I know they look odd. I'm gonna do some on another piece of paper to avoid messing with the TT itself. Time for that later on!

Very cool. I'm looking forward to see how you transfer this to PS or Illustrator.

Me too, Cirus - Me too!!!

Are you drawing with a pencil and scanning the result? Looks great!

Yes I am - see below

just a snapshot of my desk - earlier versions of the TT can be seen above the current one.

I always love your process bud Glad you got plenty of pencils!

This is cool, very inspirational, for me at least.

Okay, so I have a question for those of you that 'speak Adobe Illustrator' -

If you compare the below to the previews already shown, you'll notice that this new preview ain't in 3D yet. So, will I need to draw the 3D effect before opening the drawing in Ai - or can I get Illustrator to do that for me?

(0h, and it's very light to the other previews, but that's coz I didn't do a levels adjustment).

Illustrator's 3D capability is frankly very limited and has always given me a certain level of difficulty and frustration. It would be easier to create the 3D effect manually if you want it to be done right.

I know you have a lot of questions about AI, so my best recommendation would be to look for online tutorials and start hacking away at it. I'll help you as best as I can, but like I said in my PM, I'm extremely busy and I don't want my availability to slow down your work on this project.

Best of luck!

Thanks Kernie

I have the original lynda.com tutorial dvds which came with my Adobe Master Collection Student Edition.Gonna sit down and have a watch!

Meanwhile in the Bat Cave...

Great start bud !! Cant wait to see more !

Looks like it's taking shape nicely bro

A lot of work. But it will be all worth it.
Awesome start bro

No, colors ain't final

Still learning my way through Ai with this... Some small flashes of 'Aaaahh!!!' and Oooooh!!'s do occur. Perhaps this Ai ain't such a monster I thought it was!
