    <title>Mind-Blowing Freehand Illustrations by Chan Hwee Chong</title>
    <link>http://abduzeedo.com/mind-blowing-freehand-illustrations-chan-hwee-chong</link>
    <description>&lt;h3&gt;This one is amazing. Chan Hwee Chong, an illustrator located at Germany, has done some mind-blowing freehand illustrations for Faber Castell. Talk about control... this dude gotta be a robot from the future or something.&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t have much to say about it. All I can tell you is that you really should visit his &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.behance.net/gallery/Faber-Castell/2267302&quot;&gt;portfolio at Behance&lt;/a&gt; to check out the making of video of these. It&#039;s impressive... and I&#039;m pretty sure you&#039;ll like it. Besides, Chan will definitely enjoy your visit. Enjoy. Cheers. ;)&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Old illustration with Australian feeling</title>
    <link>http://abduzeedo.com/old-illustration-australian-feeling</link>
    <description>&lt;h3&gt;It’s always good when we find some things we thought we had lost. Last week I was checking some backup CDS and I found some old illustrations, which were from 2002-2003.&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The illustrations were for some work i did for a friend of mine who was living in Perth, Australia. I don’t know what he did with the,  but it was a good money. One is the skyline in &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perth%2C_Western_Australia&quot; title=&quot;Perth Skyline&quot;&gt;Perth&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fremantleports.com.au/About/PhotoGallery/3767.asp&quot; title=&quot;WA Maritime Museum Victoria Quay&quot;&gt;WA Maritime Museum Victoria Quay&lt;/a&gt; I don’t even know what this is and the last one is the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney_Opera_House&quot; title=&quot;Sydney Opera House&quot;&gt;Sydney Opera House&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In those days I was using Freehand for almost all of my works, but the Sydney one I did on Illustrator and that one, I think, the AI file has been lost for the eternity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, I’d really appreciate it if anyone who still uses Freehand could convert those files to &amp;quot;AI&amp;quot; for me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center&quot;&gt; &lt;img class=&quot;img&quot; src=&quot;/files/u1/perth.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Perth Skyline&quot; alt=&quot;Perth Skyline&quot; height=&quot;329&quot; width=&quot;470&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

    <title>Mini in Vector</title>
    <link>http://abduzeedo.com/mini-vector</link>
    <description>&lt;h3&gt;Last week I was checking some old backups, like from 3 years ago and it was really cool because I found some crazy things that I had done in the past. Some I had even forgotten I had them, while others I was really willing to get them back and maybe use them again.&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One of these files is a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mini.com/mini_worldwide/mini_worldwide.html&quot;&gt;Mini&lt;/a&gt; that I had created on Freehand, I think in 2004. I don’t know precisely when I did that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, as I don’t have Freehand anymore, I managed to open it in Fireworks importing the .FH11 and the illustration looks ok. However I’d really like to have it in Illustrator format (AI). I tried exporting it from Fireworks but it lost some gradients and masks from the original file.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; So, I would really appreciate if anyone could export it to AI from Freehand and send it back to me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/files/u1/mini_vector.gif&quot; alt=&quot;MINI COOPER in vector&quot; height=&quot;464&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
