Hi,
I've been playing around with Illustrator to turn my doodles into vectors. I tried using Photoshop to begin with (for some coloured images) but I couldn't get the result I was after which is to get my lines looking solid without my illustrations looking too clip-arty (which was the result I was getting when I had tried Inkscape in the past for vectors). I have downloaded a trial of Illustrator. For the most part, I am pretty happy with the results I am getting on my black and white illustrations, for which I have been using the 'Sillouhettes' preset, although there are some images which have a more 'scribbled' style which are coming out okay, but not quite perfect. As for my coloured work, I can't seem to be able to vectorise (is that a word?) the illustrations without them looking very unnatural. Does anyone have any tips on how I can achieve this? I want a vector style but still want my work to look organic and not over-edited.
