For scalability and quality, it’s hard to beat a good vector illustration. These were created for Sterling International, makers of the RESCUE!® line of pest control products, using Adobe Illustrator CS4. Because they are vector-based illustrations, they can be scaled to any size without loss of quality.
Illustrator David Grove is the creator of many amazing images. Chief among them (in my view) is his illustration for the cover of Rafael Sabatini’s famous novel, Captain Blood (above). It was an image that captured the imagination of a young Sigmadog way back in the 70′s, and helped inspire him to pursue a life in the arts.
Now, a new book is coming out on the life of this amazing artist. David Grove: An illustrated life is now available for order. I have it on good authority that the print quality of the many illustrations is superb. I’ve ordered my copy already, and anxiously await it’s arrival.
