Just getting into this type of stuff, feedback appreciated. Also would like to know if anyone here uses illustrator and I was wondering if it would be worth it?

yes, illustrator would have been a much better way to do what you did. you will need to learn how to use the pen tool well and it will look much better and be more professional then just tracing. it will also give you a lot of more options.

Computer illustration

the term "graphic design" has a connotation that there's some sort of specific message being communicated visually through type, imagery, materials, or a mix.

But that's getting picky. I say call it whatever you want.


To the OP - if that's what you're into, you should start learning illustrator!

i see Graphic design as information communicated in a visually pleasing way.
