The “Live Paint” feature in Illustrator CS2 is one of the most powerful additions to Illustrator in years. It’s one of those “duh” features that makes you wonder how you ever got around in Illustrator without it. I’ll do a tutorial on how to use it for real later, but for those of you who already know how to use it, try this on for size: creating 100% vector pixel art! Oh, the irony.

awe. So happy. Great idea. Did you make a grid with a bunch of lines? I have this strange urge to shoot one of those birds.

There’s a dog hiding behind the bushes who laughs at you when you miss the birds. Then you shoot the dog.
Yeah, it’s just a grid of lines with a white stroke, and then I put the whole object on ‘multiply’ mode so the white lines don’t show up on the background.
