    I actually did this piece in Adobe Illustrator for a class I'm in. This was very time consuming but a lot of fun!

    Thank you guys~! I was very meticulous, I don't think any spots were missed..might just be a highlight you're seeing.
    Jennifer19 - my friend told me this as well and it is a complete mystery as to why some can view it and other's cannot. I think it might be a Mac thing, no clue. Here is a link to a lower-res version from my facebook. It's not as nice looking since FB puts things at a lower resolution, but it's the only way I can show you.

    It took several hours. I had worked in Illustrator before, but never like this. It's a bit tricky, but you'll get the hang of it. If you want to do it, use the pencil tool. Make sure stroke is set to none. Double click the pencil and do these options: Fidelity: 4, Smoothness: 35. Check boxes Fill New Pencil Strokes and Keep Selected.
    The pencil tool treats things differently than a normal brush. It will automatically fill the area between the first point and the last point, so if you want to make just a line you need to draw your line and then draw it back to the original point.

    Thanks for all of your wonderful feedback guys! <333
