Frog / Done in ILL

I did this for my First project in Digital Illustration. I used only Illustrator to design this peace. I mainly used the pen tool and gradient mesh tool. This is about my 5th time really using the program so please go easy on me.

exact like as original?

did you put much time to making the proportions right? or did you cheated to spare time and concentrate on colours?

Well the project had guidelines and one of those guidelines was to trace the image using the pen tool. The main goal of the project was to get familiar with the pen tool. I think I accomplished this feat with out a problem.

I can also make the textured copy any size I want to and it should not loose any quality.
