sigh... You are right. I use crayons for all my vector work. People
keep talking about how they use the "pen tool?" for all their vector.
but I don't see how you can get a good range of colors out of a pen.
Also. Where can I buy a gradient pen at? I hear that is how people
blend colors?

Really though... I do have one vector piece in the works that I can
share with the class upon its completion.

ahh sweet. I had no idea that if anything was out of print for 25
years it would fall into the hands of creative commons!

If I saw any of these cases in your examples, I wouldn't respond. All
I saw was you trying to duplicate illustrations that were done as you
say, "a quarter of a century ago", using far better tools than those
artists had.

But really, I do implore you to explore the LEGO sticker medium with
your own original sticker sheet concepts. Good luck with it. You will
just want to avoid slapping your name on any of their Copyrighted
work... or slapping LEGO logos on any of your original work.
