Can’t believe how popular it’s become, especially after the hunger games Twitter account used it in a tweet. I think I’ve moved on from this kind of work although I did do something similar recently with vector images in an art project. However the works progressed too.</p>http://backtothedrawingboard.tumblr.com/post/45995704023http://backtothedrawingboard.tumblr.com/post/45995704023Fri, 22 Mar 2013 12:01:14 -0400vectorartPhotoshopillustrationexperimenthungergamespresidentsnow<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/fef94198efccc011f7ee0a160dba54d8/tumblr_mjzep95Sd91qj3bbeo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Final result!
