I drew the motorcycle, converted to 1-bit B&W, then added color. The design was done in Corel 9 as both vector and bitmap.

 

Did the basic design in Corel 9 with vector and bitmap. The car was from a printed shirt (from previous work). I scanned it and re-painted in Photo-Paint.

 

Same as the rest. Created in Draw 9. Added hand drawn elements from Corel Trace.

 

Same as the rest. Added fire with tool from Photopaint.
