Vector Vs. Traditional

So I'm trying to establish my illustration identity with two types of styles. Traditional, realistic, painterly and digital vector. Today, I converted my black palm cockatoo that was originally done in colored pencil to my vector style. I added some cheesy illustrator textures, but I really like it! :D

A Big Revision

So in portfolio prep, I've decided that I want to take all of my crap work and redo it in my awesome new style. This one I created last summer in scratch board. Its based on the song In the Year 2525, specifically on the 6565 verse.
In the year of 6565
Won't need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your sons, pick your daughters too
From the bottom of a long glass tube


And then I redid it in a posterized vector style with some color.



After I created this, I wanted it to have some significance. So when some one asked why I did this illustration, I would have a legit. answer.
