I'm in South Africa so while everyone here was tooting.... i was fast asleep.

Today, i'm gonna be finding pics with shapes and cutting alot of stuff out.

SWEET LORD Reinman - you cut out that hairdresser in 5 mins?

I guess i could have come close to that with my eraser tool time-wise but not quality wise.

So will mastering the PEN TOOL improve my TIME or QUALITY or BOTH when i chop?

Thanks for the Vids guys. I will have to watch em slowly cos here in africa, lions eat all our broadband cables in the ground...

Yup! 5 minutes. Or, as I tell my clients, 12 years and 5 minutes.

As you get better and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE you will improve your TIME AND QUALITY. Keep at it! And DON'T GET LAZY!!! (just get efficient!

Oh, and thanks for the thanks - we do appreciate your appreciation!
