When I think of Adobe Illustrator, I think of vector lines and shapes, not photo realistic graphics. While browsing the PhotoshopUser Forums, I came across IllustratorWorld. Yesterday I posted a link to this single picture of a Porsche GT3 100% created with Adobe Illustrator but the more I browser the galleries, the better it gets.
The gallery is full of more fantastic illustrations using only Illustrator, here are a select few.
