Anyone know?
And are there other versions?
(I herd there's maybe one with the Stormtrooper guy in white & no polices?)

I could hazard a couple of guesses, but really I've no idea ...

Thnx!

Woah! :shock:

OKAY!
So, maybe it's a program, rather than an actual 'artist'?

It's just a live trace done in Adobe Illustrator.

Thanx!
Wish I understood what u just said.
(Lol, "just a live trace" :D )

Still think it's awesome tho'.
Love the way like the sky & the ground came out.

Heh! I used to try to PAINT like that back in what seems like a previous life now -
- painting or inking over photographs from magazines etc.
Now computers can do it for me!

Isn't technology wonderful !?

Really all it is, is a click of a button. Of course the software package sets you back over a grand. Here's an example I just made in literally half a minute It traces pixel clusters into vector shapes. I mainly see it used on small photos so they can be scaled to any size without looking pixelated. It is kind of sad, people used to do labor intensive artwork to get this type of look, now it's done in a matter of seconds.

That's an adorable pug you've got! I was "attacked" by a couple when walking my dog yesterday - pug attacks are the best!

i use live trace for the basis for alot of my illustratrations, but it involves hours of tweaking after the fact, getting rid of and adding extra points and stuff lines.

it is a great tool.

Not to derail the subject but does anyone know the story behind the original pic?

It was a protester at the 2009 G20 summit in London.
