# Wow! I really like this.
From far away it looks like ASCII art, but of course its not. How long did this take to do? and how many layers were there?

# There are really only 6 layers.
One of them is just the flat white background, and the other 5 are the overlaying vector layers that make up the face. At the end though I doubled up the 5 vector layers and offset them to give it some more density, so there are actually 11 layers used if you include the background.
It took about an hour I guess. It's the same techniques I often use to make these, except I put raster masks onto all of the vector layers and filled them with a stripe, then rotated the raster masks to create the crosshatching.

# Ahh I was also wondering how you did the cross-hatching. I should have a go at vectors one day
Have you ever had any commercial interest in your art works?

the stuff I post here isn't all that different from the stuff I present to some of my clients.
No, not the knob jokes. The other stuff.
