However, an article posted by Katie Marcus on a developing a sketchy camera illustration caught my fancy. Was it the style, or the fact that I’m obsessive about my Holga? Whatever the reason, I kept it flagged as unread in my Google Reader until I had time to work through it.

Combining my love of photography, and my love of Illustrator (and, of course, the information provided by the tutorial), I have embarked on a personal project illustrating vintage cameras.
