Wow, im a fann of vector art work, and this is truely inspiring.

Great illustration work 2much! Reminds me of Si Scott's work. Maybe you could have crossed the sharp line that devides the face in two a little bit here and there. Just to give it a more organic feel. But overall, good job! :)

hey happyface, thanks a lot for our advice! i was trying out to cut the lines a bit softer in the middle, but i somekind liked the sharp cut.. anyway in the end it was all a question of time, i'm already happy that i still could send it in the last second..

Hey 2 much,
it's kind of a mystified ying yang, very nice design to have on a snowboard...

nice

I like the left half of her face better than the right half =)
